Wow, sleep was needed.

Yesterday, splitting my sleep, and all the work of late, crashed my system.  I went to sleep at around 6:00, up to thirty minutes after.  I woke???  20:30 to 21:30?  Probably, no earlier.  A lot of sleep.  I woke a few times, fed the girls in there.  Let them in for a bit.  Then not.  Got sore but kept rolling.  Needed the sleep, couldn't shake it, so did what I could to not end bent all out of shape due to being temporarily bedridden.  It seems to have worked.  I have a whole lot more sympathy for those folk, young or old, who are tied to a bed or chair.

I was hungry right off.  I tried the mushroom stroganoff, testing microwave reheating.  It did amazingly well.  I guess with enough good fats the microwave doesn't overcook.  Though meat fats are terrible in the micro.  That was an amazing reheated meal.  I wouldn't have believed it.  This time about a third of what was left was enough, though I am rethinking another helping.

If I can, hitting the bathroom is first on my list.  Not much to it.  Just brushing in and around the toilet, sweeping, and checking the trash.  The rest is in top shape.  Of course the first kefir checks, sourdough stirrings, litter box resets, and dishes?  No, I think I finished dishes before crashing.  Just that jug for the sourdough... had to nearly chisel through layers to get the dried starter, and grandma's raging bush off and out.  I know milk kefir will need sorted and rejarred, a lot of work.  Then another sourdough needs rejarred... one at a time.  Then I can get to the bathroom.  Ugh.  Hmm, I can set the toilet to a chlorine soak beforehand, for a much quicker go when I get to it.  Did I already write "Ugh"?  If not, UGH!

I suspect I'll get through these and into the kitchen yet this day.  I need to clean the stovetop and oven, perhaps then letting the oven self-cleaning system have it's go.  Then to the table and floor.  If I get the floor cleared and swept, then mopping and the bathroom.  Can't really tell with the kitchen, after mopping, but it smells better.  New floors there, in the halls, and back porch are on the list.  A new furnace and ac are next in the queue, then the en suite, with a new fridge and a few other appliances in there.  Ugh.  But I am getting there.

I've had to figure out how to live with a mortgage, how to arrange utilities, fixed replaced water heaters, toilets, and other things.  Tried to do my own plumbing and failed.  Purchased two freezers, a new stove, new washer (twice) and dryer.  I also need tree work, a new electrical panel and subpanel.  So, you know... I really have been giving it hell, and I'm not done.  One thing at a time.

Well, on to a bite, then the dailies.  Might kick out litter boxes first, then wash up for second breakfast while adding chlorine to the tank and bowl.  Later.
