Better, for now.

Late, later, waking.  A bit after 21:00, getting later each "morning".  Which is fine.  As I get back on medicine, and recover, this is as good as I can do.  It will change.  It would probably change with the weather, too, anyway.  Until it hits winter, assuming it settles in to a reasonably stable weather situation, and until hard winter hits, I can't really hope for a stable sleep cycle.  But it will arrive, probably.

It's dark when I wake, so I hurry to close the ducks up.  When that sun goes down, duck eaters come out.  Raccoons to skunks, and yes, skunks will kill birds.  I am not absolutely sure what else comes out.  I would guess coyotes, though those seem kept pretty much out of the equation.  All I know is, every time I wake, and it is dark, I feel an urgency to get up and out and shut them in.  And it is getting dark so early again.

Fasting blood sugar is 178 fasting this 'morning'!  My average is down to 188 for the week!  Four or five days ago it was at least ~550.  Now I am going to have to be very careful with dosing.  Now I will try, say, 8 cc's with a keto meal at that level... around 180.  At 140 to 160 I might even try 4 cc doses.  I... really need to be careful.  A few crashes and the beast I wear may develop and employ plans of it's own.  Don't starve the beast, at least not the one you wear... or... which wears you?  Don't, just... don't.

I put the towels on for another spin.  I didn't put the dishes back in for a second run, because I didn't get a shower.  I brought clean clothes down for a shower this 'morning', then will set the dishes back up.  I will get a pan of dishewater for cleaning counters and the stove top.  I have been keeping up on litter, but will hit that before getting trash and recycling out.  Sweeping, in the bathroom, sometime, perhaps mopping.  Cleaning the toilet and sink while at it.  Perhaps a shave to compliment the trim.

Little things.  Perhaps a number of them.  I'd also like to get to work on amending the bought leather thimbles... I need to expand on what is there... remove the old stitches, add a bit of new leather, and stitch that up.  I have two bought styles to alter, several of each if I end up wanting that, plus I plan to make an all-leather one... actually two types... one with a seam on both sides, as two separate pieces of leather sewn... and the other with one piece of leather formed into twin forms, with a single edge stitch on the back.  Why?  Because I want to see what really works best, and for me.  As soon as I can afford it, I would like to make that "pirate" shirt.  Perhaps unlined, the first one.  Later, a lined one.  Perhaps modern men's dress shirts, after those?  Just something real to do?  Or a phase?  We will see.  Oh, and vests.  I'd like to make a few sharp vests for those shirts.

Heart medicine is well back on track too.  I think that is what was, and still is, causing a bit of a headache on to migraines.  It was a bit heavy of a dose, and a bit fast starting up, after a longer hiatus.  But I am almost to the other side, back on track.  On to waking.  I have the alarm set, to feed the girls and then take a shower, perhaps start laundry, in an hour or two.  It's on!  Later.
