A very strange day yesterday.

After the 90 draw, I decided to eat two hours later.  A four storebought egg omelette.  Tiny eggs, but pretty good.  Adding a third of a cup of cheese, mixing in a tablespoon of milk and cream to add fat.  As I was about to eat, I decided to check blood sugar.  Blood sugar spiked to 220!?!  Bah!  From the two duck eggs and cheese?  So, yeah, insulin.  Blood sugar dropped to 185 by midnight thirty and 129 by two thirty, bedtime.  It was 160 at ten thirty this morning, fasting.

Up late because down late.  It is really warming up.  I am okay with it, mostly, so far.  But it is hitting the point were it's beginning to stretch my tolerance.  I may have to shift to nighttime 'days', sleeping in the ac during sunlight hours.  It is partly cloudy, and cooler, today, outside.  Those two conditions aren't always synonymous.  It is 76° outside.  For whatever reason, it is already 74° inside.  I shut the house down at seven, in a temporary wake, but it was 70° then.  It was warmer, even after dark, last night.  No time to cool the cave.

So?  I saw a neighbor I hadn't spoken with in some time.  He cuts the tall grass for bailing.  I had seen him recently, but while heading out, and with no cold drinks.  This time I had time and a cold one.  Not super, but a peach perrier.  And time to talk.  So I grabbed one and went out.  I almost thought I had missed him.  Turns out he was on the other other side.

It's been a while.  Not everything was discussed, but a bit of catching up.  Some about life, some about cutting, some about work and birds, and some about rabbits.  I offered to help with small things, from time to time.  Perhaps I can't do six hours of grown-up work, but a few hours, from time to time really can help.  Strong as an ox for up to an hour.  Just not midday.

I am also looking for people interested in meat rabbits.  I'd like to have two clutches, each different lines, meaning six does and two unrelated bucks.  Perhaps a third clutch.  But, that is way too much meat for one.  However, for a family or two willing to do some of the work of butchering, or willing to pay, a resilient sustainable nest of nest of rabbits could more easily be maintained.  If they choose butchering, it would add to cost, but it would be worth it, to my mind.  Sort of like solar power.  In the current situation, it isn't feasible.  It is only a potential negative future, and relatively short term advantage.  In dark days, every advantage matters.

So, yes.  One, perhaps two, families might be interested.  As well, I might get help once in a while, with care and feeding.  Plus, I may have help setting up the cages... more help.  So a several day hike might be more possible.  Funny thing... as my menagerie of critters grow, I become ever so slightly more able.  BUT, I also become more limited in what else I can do.  Funny, that.

Today?  Feeling a bit better, but the heat is starting to get to me.  I would like to hit the dishes.  Start back in on the bathroom.  Then trim, shower, and shave.  We'll see.  But that is the plan.  If I thought a cooling nap would help, or even thought I could take one, I would try.  Hmm, perhaps puzzle work?  Oh, and a bite of something, and a small dose.  Above 150, or climbing blood sugar, and I dose.  Later.
