Odd stats.

I'm feeling good.  I woke slightly before 8:00 this morning, which is about perfect as midnight and change seems to be my bedtime lately.  I am feeling just a bit better than even yesterday morning.  I am back on the regular doses of medicine.  My bp is way down, 106/70, with a pulse back to stock regular at 68.  That blood pressure is way low.  I don't really have a way to bring it up, other than cutting medicine.  For now I will simply stay on the original dose and watch.  Then again, I don't really care as long as I can still function.  I popped out of bed like I knew what I was doing, have done some minor tinkering already as well, and really it's all going rather well.  Blood sugars remain very high, they simply aren't coming down.  That doesn't make sense.  Weight is also staying up.  That extra dose really jacked my system in a number of very odd ways.

It's another cool morning.  Being partly cloudy has kept the heat in check.  I didn't go to town last night, as much to save gas and just do it my next visit to town as much as I wasn't really into it.  After an hour or two of waking I plan to hit the garden again today.  Weeding, of course.  Aerating a bit again while I do that.  Just... making a mess and enjoying doing so I suppose.  I am really hoping the various fertilizers will work, I want to get some serious fruit for the labor.  It's becoming a bit of an ego thing on top of the larder issue.  Making and jarring my own salsa would be fantastic, doing it my way, and hotter than most can take.  I bet I can even can simple hot sauces, and if they are acidic enough, I won't actually have to pressure can them.  Uhrm, assuming I get enough peppers to do that.  But having a bushel or two of corn, roots, tomatoes, and peppers would be killer.  Just to be able to say I did it.  Actually more to simply have done it.

Yeah, well...  Today?  Work in the garden.  I set up the hoses, mostly, for watering the lawn and garden.  I simply have to move the side hoses, or check on them.  I used one for the garden last night, not sure where the other is.  The way the shadow hits as the sun is going down allows me to start those two hours earlier than the main sprinklers if I am careful about where I put them.  Generally I don't like to water anything that is getting direct sun while it is getting it or if it will soon be in the sun.  One area of my lawn, along the drive way, may simply always end up brown.  No matter how careful I am to get it water, and extra water.  I think it cooks from the tar driveway?  I do put out salt, but I don't think that is it or it would be a problem everywhere along the walks and driveway but it's not.  Just one patch along one part of the drive.  I wonder if cutting a separation there, just a half inch, might help? 

I actually feel like I'm getting into home owning.  Learning to fix things, a garden, green grass, watering.  Little things, but that is most of what life is.  Even the big things are often a combination of really little things.  Very few simply have a meteor land on them or their property, or like events.  On to waking a bit better then on to whatever the day has in store.  Later.
