Perhaps not as much as planned?

.

After reviewing my plans, however, perhaps it is more that I did other things than what was planned.  And, as is often the case, doing a job isn't just doing... the job.  Often, when I go to pound a nail into the wall, for example, I first have to round up a hammer, then nails, then maybe ope up space to get to the wall if a chair or couch is in the way.  Almost no job is just doing that job.  Even with laundry or the dishes... you don't just wash.  First you wrangle, then you wash, dry, and put away.  Washing is the easy part.

I am a bit stiff and sore, but less than I have been.  I am working through those things, for now.  I am getting weary, if truth be told, less than usual if more solidly.  I fall to sleep quickly and I sleep very well.  It isn't that I don't sleep okay mostly, it's just... this seems deeper.  I have learned to sleep in spite of all, or nothing.  But this is definitely a richer blend.  I do dream, if I am not bringing much of that into my waking world.

I am amazed at how much is happening.  Though terrified at how much is left, even just to easily get the appliances in.  It really is a lot of work left, and while I am stuck tearing into the bedroom and doing about every stitch of laundry in the house.  I'll keep at it.  I decided to challenge life, and myself.  I guess, one way or another, it will get done.

Ah, while grocery shopping, I pulled a number of fall vegetables and baking apples.  I am thawing a beef chuck roast and hope to make a feast of it soon.  I have enough for two good meals.  Since I picked up sauerkraut, I can do a duck.  I am hoping to thaw that out in a few days.  I know turnips and rutabagas, but have never tried parsnips.  So I added those in.  I can't do potatoes, but I can do cauliflower as a substitute.  It just isn't the same, but it isn't bad.  I am also experimenting with store-bought kefir... to see if it can ferment a milk and cream mix, yogurt, and a near full cream sample.  They may boil it and kill off anything living, or most of it.  Still, it would be nice to know if, in a pinch, it would produce something.  The next time I am in town I will buy real kefir grains though, and begin that.  I had fallen so far behind that I just gave up and cleaned all that out.

Good night.
