Too hot again.

.

Well, I did get up pretty early. And, if I did little most of the day, when it began it was fast paced. Maybe I ate too much bread. Even half whole half unbleached white might shoot my blood sugars up. But it was hot today. Somedays just seem worse than others, and even if they happen to be the same everything, so it goes. Nope, got it. I am using that sweet Copenhagen to get rid of it. Did the same thing last time. A good day though.

I need to polish my shoes and prepare for Church, confession first, tomorrow. I am not going to plan for work this weekend, though if I get some done, all the better. Sunday is a shooting day. Up the canyon probably, where the higher elevation, trees, and brook will help to keep it a bit cooler. Earlier in the mornings or more likely later in the afternoon would make that all better. If too, I may have figured out why today seemed so hot.

I do not know, exactly, where everything is business wise. I received my first bill for my first house payment and will get that going. I need to contact them and put this on automatic payments. I am not sure how far to go over the minimum though. I think I can pull 20% but I would like to push it. Not wise though, until I see where my finances sit with the rest of my bills and the reality I am now living in. Perhaps a simple 20% for now. I am almost certain I can handle that with little pain. That would, pretty much, get my 30 payments down to 17 years, give or take a few months. My mouth waters, though, at about 35% to 45% over, or something like that, which would bring my period down into the 12 year range. I could do that, and pay all my other bills, and buy groceries. But I am not sure I could afford a handshake from a dog after that. I will know soon enough.

Lordy but the house is still a mess. It is not dirty so much as boxes are everywhere. I have not even finished completely unpacking the kitchen gear. The bookshelves are not up, the couches, end tables, and coffee table are in a traffic jam configuration if too off to the side enough for easy passage. I need another bed for when my Mom arrives, and for other visitors when they stay over.

And yet, for me, not bad. Really. A lot more could be done, and possibly should have been done. But I know a lot more will be done, or at least some more will be done. I might even fool myself and get most of it done. Only being required to go to town twice a week now, I have a lot more time and energy for the home. I think I will use a decent amount of it too.

While shopping today for MILK, I said milk, milk, lovely milk, I picked up some other things. Among them more beans, 5 cans of carrots, and 5 cans of spinach. The store I stopped at did not have much more that I could remember from the list. Ah, they would have had tuna though. No canned pumpkin was to be found. I will continue to work on that list, though I think I might join Sam's Club to further my goals in several areas, including many things on my "normal" shopping list. I need to look over their internet site, they have on splintered off the main one just for the local store.

Now to cool off. I sure feel like a nap but it is a bit too late for that and yet a bit too early for bed. I will tinker as I am want to do anyway. Darn but those peepers want to shutter.

This is probably good night. Good night Jack, Mary, Sue, Louise, Tom, Mums, and Pops. Yeah, you are on my list, well and truly. And thanks. If one of you is a real turkey dropping. Bureaucrats and atheism. What could have gone wrong? The rest of you have a good one. Oh fie, you too turkey butt.
