A tough start.

Not a painful one, this time.  It was just very difficult to get up and going.  Not until 14:45 was I able to wake, and weakly, after going down around 04:45.  I was able to wake about a quarter to seven, to close the cave down.  Back to bed without any doubts.  It is a good thing I did shut it down, it is 90° out there now, was already warming quickly by then, and even so is up to 72° downstairs, starting off.  I may be better served shutting down at bedtime from now on.

Oh, and... while my feet weren't swollen, I suspected I was retaining fluid.  Just... an odd thing one begins to suspect from enough experience.  Never can be sure, but... it fits.  My best trial tool is extra water pills (they make you go pee).  And, so it went.  A typical higher dose.

I prefer the extra dose in the morning, but will take it as soon as I sense a problem.  As is, that was last night, a bit before bedtime.  I even went twice before sleep, as well when I was up closing windows.  So, probably a liter or two, unmeasured.  However, my pee jugs have measures on them.  And, just in those, I peed seven and a half liters?  Oh my.  But yes.  I completely filled a 3 liter, two 2 liter, and then a liter of another 3 liter container.

On the good side, I see why my weight had been stuck.  Am now to 267.  Roughly, but... that would be four, maybe pushing five gallons with the unmeasured but probable volumes.  Lets say four, and water weighs about eight pounds a gallon.  So... I just "lost" ~32 pounds?  At five that would be be 40 pounds!  Yeah.  Wow.  I feel better, but a bit odd and different.

Ducks are out, a timer was set to feed the girls, the upstairs is on ac in case I need a crash nap, and I may.  Some food... meat... is thawed, would like to begin experimenting with smash burgers.  Plus test the coleslaw.  All the list remains of things to do.  Perhaps, with four or five gallons out, I have a better chance.  Wow.

Later.
