A little, on a strange night.

.
.
My right arm, middle right toe, and that headache... yes, I forgot aspirin.  Then a night heatwave.  High winds which shoved the thermometer to 80°, indoors.  I had a single ac going upstairs.  It kept that to 73°.  I actually didn't feel too bad for it, but went on up in an attempt to avoid getting heatsick.

I kept the single ac, along with the fan, on.  It worked.  Oddly I felt cold, but wasn't willing to risk too much heat with no good means of escape.  I never did sleep, just rested for a few hours.  My arm, toe, and headache wouldn't let me sleep.  I gave up, decided to do and check some things.

I have no idea what is causing the headache *cough*, or the arm to hurt.  Feels like a recovering through puncture wound.  The toe has been hurting for days.  I feared it was a toenail cutting in, but didn't have the nerve to look or deal with it, as bad as it felt.  I went ahead and looked.  Ah!  Thankfully just a bruise.  I... remembered what from after looking.  Stubbed that toe on a heavy case, but while feeling so awful it wasn't well in memory.  Aspirin, hopefully that will help.

I did get the ducks out.  They didn't bother with the water, this time.  Perhaps tomorrow.  I need to get them out, anyway.  I am waiting on the return of my wheelbarrow so as to clean the hutch.  Then I will begin collecting eggs again.  They just hid in the grass, didn't go far, and were waiting at the door when I went out to put them in at late dusk.

Dinner, and later a supper.  A refried burger salad, then later a sliver of pork.  Nothing fancy, not much, but it worked.  As well, I put the daikon sprouts out, then prepared another batch and took it out too.  Outside, in the sun.  The first batch really started greening and filling out.  The new batch has sprouting happening on it's first day!  Yes, these seeds have some serious shelf life, if you might need to baby them a bit.

I had forgotten them out.  I was worried the wind might have broken the jars.  The chair they had been setting on was upturned.  But they hadn't set well in that chair, to my taste, so I had moved them well out of range of that, and set them well, apparently.  Untouched and happy as kits in a den.  In, now, but going out again tomorrow.  Vegetarian?  No.  Cheap, flavorful, vitamin C and else.  Goes good in salads, also with canelope, nuts, and... various things.  Really good on sandwiches.  Say $6 in seeds will equate to five to ten pounds in green veggies, nearly on demand.  I want to get an alfalfa mix too.  Variety.  I might even attempt growing some of the daikon to full size.  They are my favorite radishes.

When I was out last, about an half hout ago, it was down to 70°.  I am hoping for more cooling still.  Either another nap or rest, a shower first, if possible.  Nights and days are lost.  Not sure what will happen until the earth and I get sorted.  Will try to work when and as able in any case.  Getting there.  Later.
