Heat, half doses of medicine, or what?

.

Today has been a rough day. I did not get the bike in, call about this or that, nothing. I have a ton of things I need to do and I simply can't remember, focus, push. There is nothing to keep me on track. Add in that I haven't been taking my medicine as well as I should be. Not on purpose, I simply haven't been focusing well. On the good side, I don't chalk this up to the medicine in the first place. This is more like how things used to be, not an exacerbated normal low. My blood pressure is up a bit, but that may be due to missing medicine. At least I can still fight to keep on trying. It is merely disappointing. I don't need a rest, I need to push when and where I can. And, I will.

Perhaps I can at least manage to get my home back in order this weekend. I would also like to check for wasps in the coop, spray if needed, and keep checking and spraying until they are gone. If no wasps, or when they are gone, it will be time to take materials out there. I can do nothing with the bike, myself. And I am not interested in paying some large price for an unassociated bike mechanic to tell me what I already know and have him try to sell me an expensive brake system. I can't even do it Monday as I have to travel. I have an appointment in the morning and early afternoon. Busy. Tuesday, if I can raise my own carcass early enough, is as soon as I can get that bike going.

Disappointing. I have so much to do. I just can't seem to get to it. Oh, I will be learning how to join the wood walls for my solar cooker today. There are many methods. I won't be making rabbits or other fancy things. I haven't made a wooden box, before, actually. My mind is going over possibilities. I called my mom back, after missing her call this morning. I was telling her a bit about it. She should be interesting to have try it out. She is rather... normalized. She saw farm life and rejected that. She likes quick, easy, easy to maintain, functional, cheap. Considering how little a solar oven costs and that there is no fee to run it, and it doesn't heat the house, she might really like this item. The downside is either adjusting it every half hour to hour or the slower cooking process, well, and having to leave the warm or cool home to face the elements while filling and adjusting it.

On with... something. Have a great day.
