Remember the freezer? The one I had to clean out? Yeah? Well... I did clean it out. Then I added strongly bleached water to the basin, cleaned that out, then put in a sweet solution... and forgot it. Thankfully there was enough bleach so that when I opened the chest I didn't have rotten water to deal with. However, I am wondering if that wasn't part of the problem, perhaps the whole problem, with my eye(s). With weather going from cool to pretty much cold, frozen and in a holding pattern down there, the furnace has been on. There is a vent near the freezer (reminder, shut that one off). What that has done is excited the solution, very possibly pumping out chlorine molecules, or some mix. And, what that has done, is escape the chest and infiltrate the cave.
So, yes, that may have been it. I realized the potential a few days ago, but had to work my way up to working my way through that task. I had dishes blocking up where I wanted to work, so that had to be dealt with. Then I had to eat a bit to work up strength, alone with clearing the other area, oh and clearing the top of the freezer which had turned into a minor catch all as I had previously worked on some other areas. Bleh. In any case... done. I have to struggle through, but, when things are just right or I can tolerate the wrong, I can do it. This, actually, was a multi-pronged operation, and required both immediate and intermediate focus and resolve. Seems simple. I think even for the healthy that isn't always the case. Add fifty pounds of loadstone around the average human's neck, and you begin to get closer. If that doesn't end up slowing them down, double it. Continue as needed.
At some point, people, for the most part, lay down. They plan their movements with great care, as they can only move occasionally, and at great pain. So it is with me, always. And, being unable to look before I leap, for I cannot always see the goal from where I am, mistakes happen. Add to that the idea that I can't always correct on the way. Momentum is wonderful, until it's a bitch. Much like gravity. It does teach patience, and when even that fails more than not, it teaches humility. If one is willing to learn. I only chose those paths because God made it quite clear that I was not going to be allowed to simply die. You know how parents can be? When it's God, if He gets on about something, yeah... No worries, I am finally on board with it.
All that just to clean the freezer? Yes, and to potentially, probably, take care of my eyes. They are clearing, in any case. Perhaps most of the chlorine that was going to be turned to a form of aerosol has been turned, and then absorbed. Or that was weakening. I will know in a few days if this was the problem. Oh, and I should have my freezer back in operation soon, as soon as it dries. I cleaned the interior with soap and water, after removing the chlorinated sweetening water, inside and out. Now it just needs to dry.
I've been doing bits and pieces of work, as much as I can, for four days now. Not a lot every day, but something. All of the work coordinated, with focus, intent, and aim. Not a lot of work, but the focus makes it worthwhile, good. And, I finished the full project and can move on from there. Now to hit some of the other areas. I think I can, for a while, perhaps a long while. We will see. Later.
