It seemed so late.

Probably because it seemed so bright?  Yea.  The sun is out, and with fresh snow covering even my driveway, it is gleaming as well as shining.  While technically awake a bit earlier today, the truth is, even going to bed rather late again, that is an comparatively earlier wake.  More, I was awake for hours before, but I didn't want to wake.  Why?  Was I just tired?  Did I feel cold?  Were my aches and pains too gnawing?  Some of all those, perhaps other problems?  Or something(s) else entirely?

I can't say.  I just know I was avoiding waking, but did, eventually.  No worries.  I am up, heat is going, I am mostly dressed, and I will begin things shortly.  Ducks, cats, resetting dishes, medicine down, a fresh pot of tea set, then a break.  Then dishes and kitchen surfaces.  After I just don't know.

Day two of fasting.  It's okay.  I am hoping to make it to, possibly through Monday.  I am going to try bone broth with a teaspoon of cream instead of butter today.  Later, after an a. c. vinegar ketonic and maybe a hot tea.  Everything, otherwise, needs to be unsweetened until I begin hitting 150 and below, blood sugar.  Then back to one sweetened in three.  The rest of my fasting days I will go without broth.  In my next extended fast, I will try just salted and peppered broth.  I would like to consume four to five cups of stock a week.  Though drinking or in gravy is all the same to me.  Oh, with dishes done, the stove cleaned, and the rest happening, I should make chicken stock soon.  I ought to by a good chicken soup spice mix soon as well.

I've been up since 7:30?  Oh well.  If I could push that to 5:00, I would.  Hmm... now that I am doing better, I should try it.  This is better?  Yea.  Later.

Tried cutting the waterpill, from three to two.  Nope.  In the weeks since the appointment.  Lungs are filling.  Even drinking a lot less doesn't matter, if it isn't, exactly, fluid consumption based.  It is more about blood backing up into the lungs primarily, with a side issue of high volume fluid intake.  Then again, low volume for me is two gallons, possibly more.  High volume is closer to double that or more.  It is still a lot.  Doc wants more potassium if I take more water pills, so...

Blood sugar is slowly coming down.  Not much I can do other than fast.  I expect it to break today so, maybe today.  Just in case broth is a problem, I will skip that experiment today.  Tea.  Yeah!?!  Blah.  It'll work.
