Cutting off work needs to happen a little earlier.

In spite of, mostly, working since noon, if losing track from time to time while tinkering on this or that, I am not tired.  Then again, it is a sitting job.  It was difficult to stop now.  It seems that I have "lost" a bunch of cds, or there is a collection somewhere else.  In any case, I could easily see the last dozen pages of my cd case.  However, I had set it and I kept to the time.  That won't work.  I need to cut off activities at more like 20:00 I am thinking.  Nothing after that save reading or writing.  I have set the alarm for 7:00.  My goal is to be out of the house by 9:00, heading to the butcher.  If I can't make it until 11:00, then I go to Mass.  If I am later than that, then I just head to swimming.  If it is after 15:00, then I just take the movies and go see my friend.  Rather than trying to force something, then not knowing what to do when that fails, I have started making these variable sorts of plans.  It looks good on paper, anyway.  I have the dvds in my duffle bag, ready to go this time.

I thawed a bowl of my extra-warm chili.  I needed something meaty and immediate.  Well, that was the plan.  It took over an hour to thaw what of it I did get thawed.  The middle 1/4 was still frozen, but I was able to scoop out enough of the rest as it is a big main bowl, for a serving sized bowl.  It seems to have lost some of the heat, or I am getting a bit more used to the heat.  Then again, as hot stuff to my tastes do, I felt like lights where a little brighter.  I am not sure if that is a vitamin C hit, or truly a thing from hot foods?  No, if it were a vitamin hit, orange juice would do that.  Thawing took way *say it together* longer than I thought it would.  So, it is almost 1:00 as I prepare for sleep.  Tomorrow is looking iffy.  I'll do what I can.

Good night.
