Taking little steps back. Adding a headache to the list. A twist in the neck too. Perhaps the cause? Medicine is staying on track. One more small increase and it will be to full dose. I still feel as if I had died, and was still in some odd purgatory or limbo. I believe I have seen that, but before flesh. I can only guess what living there after receiving a body would be like. But... it would be a perfected body. However, a perfected body outside the perfection of heaven?
So foggy, confused, tired, achy, and sore.
I baked chicken last night. I tried a new trick, using baking soda along with my usual spices, as a coating. Your mileage may vary, but for me no dice. It made the skin, as it cooled, inedible. I think I overcooked it a bit. But that is a common infraction for me. At least a hot meal was enjoyed, generally.
I have the old battery in the lawn tractor, ready to go. If it fails, I will put the new one in. The goal is to dig out today. More snow recently. Adding to a small amount that was down. Still, rather powdery. I had meant to just shovel through, but couldn't get far. I don't think that is the cause of the problems, just a result of them. It was best to shovel open the small first area anyway.
I forgot to turn the furnace down last night. It does feel good, if a bit too warm at 72°F. Can't win, sometimes. Yesterday was the best day in a long time for not freezing. I actually do wonder if whatever health issues I have don't induce something closer to hibernation, in the high winter and high summer. All I get is a bit of spring and fall. It's just how it goes.
Blood sugar was 182 fasting this morning. It seems keto won't work, always, if undereating while being inactive.
I've been working more with the old "crushed corn flakes for coating" idea. Been the best route I've taken in some time, but it needs fine tuning.
ReplyDeleteMy "common infraction" when cooking is always overdoing it on garlic. Can't help it. Every time I use garlic my eyes get bigger than my stomach.
Headaches (mild, but annoyingly noticeable) have been pestering me, so you're not alone in the boat. I may have to bite the big one and start wearing my glasses while at the computer.
Take care.
Right? Crushed would do wonders for crunch. Of that I have no doubt. But my diabetes would rocket up.
ReplyDeleteI am just lucky I don't add too much garlic. I try to measure that particular flavor and add powdered onion too, so my mind backs of it's "big eye" problem. A healthy tablespoon (or two) of each. Though, to someone else, probably so. I use my palm as my measure, from actually past measured into the palm memories.
Odd about headaches. This flesh certainly has much to be desired in it's current state. I don't think it is always possible to avoid them, especially as age settles in or illness advances. Aspirin usually helps, except for a few types.
