Beside waking late, and sleeping very hard... I know it because my throat is sore from snoring, I simply could not get going earlier on. I still have a trace of a headache. It's not enough of a thing to try to treat, and at this point may have been from sleeping too hard. I am not giving up though. I just got a shower, and partially dressed. I'm just waiting on dinner to decide what to do next. Perhaps a quick trip to town, for milk, cream, and that certain spray paint. If I do go to town, and do get that, I might lay a primer down, and spray the foregrip inside with the heat resistant paint yet tonight. Hmm, come to think of it, I could prime the whole gun, either way. I'm a little nervous about what to tape off, and how, on the gun. Though I did see a video that offered a better solution. Filling the innards with toilet paper, then taping over it. And putting a toilet paper plug in the barrel. Yeah... that would work.
Not feeling the best, as I said. But as the day drags on, I seem to feel better. Being on medicine, I think, is actually, at this point, helping. It's just that the morning dose takes a bit to kick in. Sleeping too hard, for whatever reason, really adds a lot of drag to the first few hours as well. I'll keep working, pushing, when I can. Funny thing? If hell does come? I am actually more ready for that than most. It's my area. It won't kill me like some. The change in diet and forced exercise will... heal me. It's this fluff that is killing me? Maybe. If I could just get down to some mean camping trips, I think... that would begin to solve some problems. Just enough bacon and beans, with long distances between refills, and more humble surrounds. The heat, cold, bugs, hassle with water, and the rest are restorative. We, most of us, live quite coddled lives, even if we think we have it bad. Trust me.
Hmm? I don't know. I'll... start thinking about some other things to add to my list. Later.
I find camping trips restorative. There is something about being outside all the time that refreshes the spirit.
ReplyDeleteBut, one has to be well to a certain extent. If somebody asked me right this minute, I'd have to decline. I am still recuperating from this stomach bug thing. It threw me for a loop d loop.
Anyway, be well yourself!
The nice thing, around here, is that if I want to just do extremely simple camping, I can drive up any number of canyons, and pick an easy spot right off the road, set up a simple camp, light a fire in a prebuilt circle, probably all for free. Many of the areas have good to very good hiking paths near by, fishing streams, rivers, or lakes, and climbing rocks. Oh, and if I want to desert camp, just go south or east, but a little further. A lot of state and national parks but those can be spendy, even with a gate pass for the federal ones.
