Maybe more of a push.

A push without intent?  Yes.  It's more like doing more has just, sort of, happened.

I have been tinkering with blood sugar reading, food, and kefir.  It looks like kefir really kicks the blood sugar.  The fasting reading was 180.  Not the best but manageable.  I then had, say, ~14 ounces of kefir.  Sort of a large of the doses I sometimes go with.  Then I waited an half hour.  It had jumped to 253.  So...  I'm still going to experiment with that.  After, I ate a grain and sausage meal, then waited an half hour to read again.  Actually it went down to 251.  Odd.  In any case, I plan on doing another reading right after this post, a sort of afternoon reading away from any foods by a couple... two, three, hours. 

I've been tinkering here and there.  I reset the dishes, and again.  They just need rinsed.  But I have either been at the end of my work cycle or outside of it, by the time they came due.  I did set up the beef for making more jerky.  Which means I have to finish the dishes that are in a rinse, then wash the trays, so that I can begin drying beef tomorrow.  More, in August, I'll probably buy twenty, maybe thirty, pounds of beef, sliced again.  I'll have to do it in batches.  But that would give me enough beef for a couple of months out there.  After that I will hit vegetables again.  As is, I have about sixteen pounds of vegetables compressed down to about... two to three pounds?  Right in there anyway. 

The alarm went off so I measured my blood sugar... 162.  Just... bizarre, if you ask me.  I'll be experimenting with other foods, eggs for example.  Anything I am sort of making a staple.  As for kefir, I will work at finding how much I can take without it being a huge fuss.  But the grains, even with a couple of brots, seems to be a perfect meal.  I am absolutely amazed that it brought the reading down a couple of points instead of raising it.  That just... isn't how food has ever worked with me before.  I'd like to see if that is just a fluke, having to do with consuming kefir first, or just a really unique food type.

My friend called, and I told him I would be in.  Not so much, in this case, for his sake.  But he suggested .22 ammunition was in stock.  I hope he wasn't pulling my chain.  I'll know before long.  I had to take a shower though.  Then I called to see about my mortgage.  It seems the company had a deal I really couldn't, or shouldn't, refuse.  No cost, fees, or such.  My ARM could go back to a fixed (a... relatively reasonable one, even at worst case, due to limits both in how often and maximum amount, they could raise things... worst case scenario was better than what I was in, if the cost would rise by 50%, but within reason for my income, etc).  It was at... 2.65 or some such, and would go to 3.75... but from an arm that could go as high as 9.75.  With the rate fixed, the payment becomes fixed.  Betting on an interest rate increase?  Are you kidding?  Oh, and for some reason, no fees etc.  My guess is that rate increase buys that company more time.  It's a parachute.  But in an endless drop, just how long that will help them is anybody's guess.  Now I can comfortably do, by next year, double payments.  And, if I push really hard and tinker a bit, I might be able to triple the payment.  To be honest, I am just looking at getting enough of it paid off that I can sell it at a loss and not have to work with the bank regarding it.  What is a home worth today?  Does it even matter if no one can afford it?  That is where we are at.

I can't afford to live anywhere that mobility is controlled by quarterly medical checks and a bureaucracy that hates the truth, doesn't believe in sin, and has to power to mess with people.  If I must be on foot, I'll be on foot where everyone has to be on foot.  Yeah...  Still, I'd like to get clear of this before trying to something else. 

Oh, well, just drying off a bit before I head into town.  I really need .22's.  These aren't the cheapest, but they aren't the $80 for 300-550 either, or worse.  If they do have these, I should be good.  However, because I fear a run if word gets out, I am not going to send this live until I am well on my way... actually probably won't print until I have them and might even be on the way home.  Yeah...  Don't know if I am just read (enough) or despised (that much), I just know what would happen if I sent this and then showed up for .22 ammo.  None.  Might be none as is, I'll see.  Later.
