Snowing.

.
.
It isn't sticking, yet.  It is wet.  It is cold.  It was snowing at least as early as 19:XX.  Not sure, exactly, :29, :39, far earlier or later in the hour.  I just know the hour.  It might have turned to rain, or just snowed from time to time.  I expected to get on the rider this morning.  Nope.  All good.  As frightening to head into, even walk in, it is a pretty time of the year.  Everything is frosted save drives... vegetation, trees.  And there is snow, a dusting.  Plus light fog, just enough to pique a pretty or clever curiosity.

The ducks went out a bit ahead of plan, which is actually the goal.  The stated time is the far edge, so long as it is light enough.  Working with water, for some reason, was exceptionally cold.  It is around 32° F.  I have worked at 20° often, and as low as 12° or less.  Not sure what gives, but I got it done.

A bunch of laundry is back to the laundry room, some of it sorted, a load in each machine plus one through.  The toilet body is clean, more later.  The electric part of the shave is done, teeth brushed, a shower planned as soon as I catch my breath and a couple of cycles have been washed.  I started sorting the bedroom while at it.  I could go far.  I have gone far.

I'd really like food today and for the next few days.  Plus, it's time to order meat.  I'll see how far a couple ducks will get me, steak, burger (heavy on the fat), chuck, and them bones... for broth.  Have you priced bone broth?  OMG!  I'll make my own.  If the price is right, I'd consider a placket or two of chops and plain ground pork and lamb.  I hate having no meat in the freezer, if it will break my wallet.  A couple decent meals a week, it's all I ask.

BP was 130/90, pulse 81... blood sugar, was 145 fasting.  Nothing fancy, if blood sugar is starting to show my diet correctly again.  I really believe someone messes with my consumables.  Anyway.  Oh, I missed a day and a half of medicine there for a bit.  I'm not certain if I missed in parts or whole.  I just lost track.

Time broke.  I've been back on meds, in any case, again, for the last day and an half, whole.  Frustrating to lose your legs from under you, even with focus.  Not sure what failed, only that I was staring right at the problem with absolute intent to prevent it and didn't.  Nor, somehow, did I realize the failure until it was well finished.

A bit of a break, a shower, wet shave, more laundry, then?  Order meat in there, do some paperwork, then food if I have been a good boy.  Later.

  2. Don't I know it. As I tell folk, I am not waiting the Apocalypse, mine is here. The end doesn't always, even usually, mean a communal thing. Our judgement is absolutely personal. Cheers.
