Better today than yesterday. I didn't do anything beyond what may have been noted, aside from a partial task that hadn't been mentioned. I dug a three foot by ten inch trench about a foot deep. I plan on another foot deep, to bury the ducks. I had to stop, another bloody nose. If I didn't mention, they have been out of both nostrils. It took many hours to get them to stop. I have another one this morning, just one nostril, and light. Actually not light...
I was up late roasting a pork roast. I had difficulty getting the grill lit. Getting late I rushed things. I ended up with a flaming roast. I almost just tossed it, but being tired and hungry I checked. Not a complete charcoal. Very juicy interior. So I put a can of peas to heat while the roast cooled. I lost a lot of meat, but what I had was delicious! Amazing how heartbreak can turn to triumph.
I have reset the dishes, started laundry, set a fresh pot of tea, and turned the thermostat up. The goal is to be awake and active by 10:00, and kick the laundry over and dishes out, then a shower and shave. Hopefully in time to get to the post office. Then back to finish the hole... if the nose bleed has stopped. I believe I am going to stop daily aspirin for a bit. It may be making me too susceptible to bleeding, while between bp and else, clotting is hampered. At least until bp is down. Oh, I need to start checking that. As well, reset meds today.
I went to bed rather too late, 22:00. Then woke at 8:00. Still a long sleep, for whatever reason. Better than yesterday, as mentioned. Feeling better too. I restarted taking medicine yesterday. I don't know how poorly I have been taking the stuff, I just suggest it's been more hit than miss. Sleep was quite good.
On to morning reading and waking. Later.
If it's not a violation of privacy (and I'd understand if you considered it such), what are you reading these days?
ReplyDeleteWhen I read, I never consider it private. Truth is, I'm not reading anything. I had started The Imitation of Christ, lost the book for six months, but haven't restarted since. I mostly read blogs and alt news postings. Actually, thanks for the reminder. That's what I will be reading.
ReplyDeleteCrazy, but you do realize people have no clue about the homeless situation, or... pretty much anything else. Although they know what stars are doing, that we (who is we) whites are bad (I don't agree and am not white... sneaky injun stole their skin :P). They have no idea if someone doesn't text it, and ignore what doesn't feel good.
Why, did you have a thought, or just curious?
Oh, hey, gmail is down for me. The email in my other profile at comc works.
ReplyDeleteI'm always interested in what people read. When I visit homes I invariably look at what's on the bookshelves (and, if there are no books, then that tells me something as well).
ReplyDeleteI tell myself not to be surprised at the endemic cluelessness in our society, and then my mind hits another speed bump.
Oh, and if you could pass along the URL for comc works then that'd be a treat (I think I used to know it, but that might've been two hard drives ago).
ReplyDeleteI have dozens of books of a rarer nature, plus others. You would have some small joy here. Ancient history, Jewish myth, Christian and Catholic tomes, and, just... strange books. I've read some, others are future hopes.
ReplyDeleteAs to a link, already included on this blog, I believe. In the sidebar, below "Oh? Hello.", click on each name Doom. One of them will lead you there. I can't seem to check on this ps4, will check another way, after this comment. Unstable, might lose all writing while testing otherwise.
Nope, can't check the other way either. If it's not there I will riddle you that. Just let me know. Uhrm... obviously.
ReplyDeleteMaybe more than some small joy if I were to wander through your collection. "Strange books" (or what most people would refer to as "strange"*) are my favorite treat. I constantly go through libraries and bookstores searching for the obscure, the esoteric and the just plain unread.
ReplyDelete(*of course, these days most people would call a book "strange" if it had words in it.)
I was speaking with a woman in her late twenties, who had never heard of the four horsemen. Yea. I wouldn't be surprised if most in her age would burn my books, out of horror. The truth is, despite what some think, if for good or ill, my church collects... far worse. Wouldn't surprise me if they have a true, bound in human flesh, a version of the necronomican. I, personally, have my limits. If I am pretty sure most curses and such only actually damage the user.
