Late waking.

.

The girls were trying to wake me since 8:30.  About every two hous after that.  Ah, they must have gone through the hard food I keep out to tide them over.  Not much I could do.  Way too tired.  Cats DO have snoozes!  Still, every two hours.  Should have shooed them out and closed the door.  First, I couldn't really herd cats, and they would have pounded the door every two hours anyway.  Note to self, dry cat food.  TODAY.  I finally woke at about 14:00.

As to who the fuss is about?  I'm starting to think it is pretty much everybody.  Close, far, kin, friend, associate, enemy, and those without any real attachment at all, which means for no good reason, some of them.  Some of it I fully understand, not that I always care, and I don't agree or there probably wouldn't be an issue.  I really can go with only God.  He gets the worst of the deal but seems satisfied with the deal.  Heck, He is who proposed, called.  All I had to do was follow, if that is a hell of a thing for even a broken one of my kind.  So?  Don't think I'm picking on you, or you alone.  Not even really picking, just sensing it.  The reading... added something to it.  Do what you have to do, some of it I get, if it isn't...  I am here, you are there, so be it.

I ran the whole quart of cream through to clotted cream this time, salting as I was loading.  The cream was much thicker this time.  I have heard that cream will vary, as to viscosity, evn week to week from the same cow?  That is how I heard it from several sources who have proven out before.  I should have made butter, even if I have plenty and am buying theirs.  Just to do it once, for the experience.  The next thick batch gets butterized.  The clotted cream has cooled enough to be covered and refrigerated.  I'll let this batch rest overnight.

I may see if I have a dried cherries, cranberries, or else for scones.  With it cooling, making a dough batch, then just baking one or two every other day, along with clotted cream and a cup or dozen of warm tea?  Sounds good.  Next to find good fresh eggs, though to see what feed they use?  But what feed is good?  All I know is commercial eggs seem to be a real problem no matter how I use them.  Hopefully baking won't be a problem?  Gahk!

Hmm, dressed, save for shoes.  Might try to install the scoop, maybe the counter-weight.  I need an air compressor for the tire chains, supposed to let the air out a bit, then pressurize to final fit.  I may just buy one this coming month.  Merry Christmas to self?  Especially if I can find an affordable 120/220-40 multi, for when I get the garage rewired.  Probably a few years off, but planning ahead is far better than catching up.  Right.  Just say "right".  :p

I best get to it.  Later.
