Bits more.

Not what I had hoped.  I simply couldn't get my mind wrapped around dealing with the vehicle.  Instead I did a bit more work in a few areas, did a bit of bandaging where needed, tinkered, read, and watched some shows.  Nothing fancy but not a complete stoppage.  I am trying to wrestle through.  With the sun being down longer and longer, with showers having moved in, with the cool, dark, and all else, I simply can't seem to push through heavily.

Oh, but more dishes!  A bit from the meal.  More from digging through a corner of the room off the kitchen.  A bunch of "tins", a couple of pans.  They were clean when put there, but out in the open they got dusty, and a few other pieces as such.  I will eventually have the dishes, pots, pans, and such clean and up.  Do people wash things that have been sitting for a while?  Or do they just wash them when they go to use them?  I truly have an impressive kitchen cooking, baking, and such collection.  Some of which has been tried and didn't work, or does but better has been found, or works just isn't used often.  Of course, there is always room for more.  As I suggested, I have begun collecting ingredients and devices to produce miso, for example.

I have had people look at me strangely when I suggest eating miso with a beef, chicken, or pork base.  I don't think many people understand some basic things.  First, the reason many Japanese eat miso with fish and seafood is because that is more commonly and cheaply available.  In the interior of the US, by a goodly distance, good fish is too dear.  Even fishing, unless you live right beside a river that is a good spot, is rather expensive.  Beef and the other meats simply make both more practical and fiscal sense.  Sure, people love to eat gold.  I... don't mind eating silver, or more copper... figuratively speaking... but I can't do gold, and wouldn't if I could.  If I was wealthy, I would hire a cook of a humble nature, to cook more as my mother did, though with a focus on my preferences.  Frugality, humility, but solid foods, from raw, and even of a more simple design.  Feasting every few months is a good thing, though, too.  My problem is I get carried away with things, in the kitchen, from time to time.  Then again, when you buy meats by the animal, it is much less expensive.  Which allows some luxury in other areas.  Cooking from raw is much cheaper, if more involved, more technical, and costing much more time.  Oh, and then there are the dishes.  But eating out is really bad for you.

I'll try to wake and get right to the dishes, then the auto... unpacking then packing.  I keep trying to figure out which services I should call, to see about availability.  The problem is, with three... it could end up a tangle.  Actually, I want it cleaned first.  I should call and check on that.  If it's a green light for that, then call about oil, and try to get a sure bet an hour after I plan to be in for the wash.  It can all go sideways so fast on such plans though.  I'm simply having overload meltdown syndrome, where without some surety I seem frozen.  I'll, I am, still pushing.

Good night.
