Looks to be a nice day.

The sun is up and smiling.  I'm keeping it out, not quite ready for happy smiling stars quite that close.  And yet, I can enjoy some of the light that sneaks through the light armor I have in place, and know it wouldn't be too bad to go out, at some point, into the day.  I'm not sure how cool it is.  I suspect it is, or was, pretty cool.  I also expect that the cool won't last long.  All seemingly obvious but that isn't always the case.  Not this, or a few other, times of the year.  Probably 40's or 50's, if I had to speculate, at the highs today.  I'd love to get out, but I have a few things to do and tomorrow is when I would prefer to get out.

I'll give my friend a call sometime this afternoon or evening.  I am going to try to make it to 19:00, maybe 20:00 tonight.  No guarantees, just a goal for now.  I did hit the dishes.  Mostly washed, rinsed, and dried.  I cleaned some of the counter.  I need to soak the cast skillet a bit before applying elbow grease, then putting it back to use for breakfast.  Bacon, I do believe.  Eggs, toast, and coffee should fill out the menu well.  Nothing fancy, but it will do.  Oh, right.  The next time I do rounds or otherwise find myself in, or passing through, the kitchen, I need to reset the clocks.  Yeah, that time of year ago. so I was told, so I was told.  Twice, mind you. 

I washed the three remaining half-gallon jars from pickled pork hocks.  I plan to pickle eggs.  Three jars will work for now.  I'm not sure how long they need to cure, probably more for taste than anything else though.  I need to get the kitchen in better shape before messing with that project, but having the jars ready is a start.  I figure I can keep one jar in the fridge, the rest downstairs.  I won't go through a jar all that quickly.  Still, in a pinch, it's nice to have some oddball along with the regular.  I'd like to store more hog's feet, pickled.  I really do enjoy those treats.

Hmm...  Today?  Since I am planning to get to town tomorrow, and I am just slowly coming off the infirmary list, I will be taking it slow.  I think the first thing I want to do, or next, is deal with the clothes that need to be put away.  If I get that done, then on to a load of laundry, or two, maybe three actually if the shower curtains will be done in a separate small load.  I don't trust that rust stuff.  Hmm, though perhaps something in with them?  Old towels that I use for the floor, or such?  Dunno.  As well, I would like to get the bathroom floor cleaned so I feel right about putting down the shower mat and toilet rug.  I just don't like putting clean, or new, down on... questionable.  No sir.  Might take a week to get that done, or not, but I won't install until it is clean and dry.

Well, all theory for now.  Possible, hopeful, but far from sure.  Life.  Love it or... never mind.  Good day.
