Very odd.

I was awake until... 20:30?  20:00?  No later, I believe.  Only awake that late because I missed my nap, then decided to stay awake until dark to put the ducks up.  Then just could not sleep until even later.  I slept until 09:00.  I woke several times before, 07:00, then nearly or a bit after 08:00.  Waking wasn't possible.  The sun is out today, so that is helping.  Light!  Darkness, as with yesterday, made doing anything nearly impossible.  Or... it seemed dark yesterday.

Ducks have been let out, the cats have been fed, and I have had breakfast.  The goal is a shower, then what was planned yesterday.  I keep thinking I can, but can't.  I'll... keep at it.

I think the reason I slept so long was that it was so warm?  Yea, I think so.  It is rather warm.  Even yesterday, it was in the 50's, even with the overcast nature of the day, and quite early... when I was letting the ducks out, or maybe earlier?  I can't remember exactly.  Life is a bit... difficult lately.  Memory, waking, sleeping, it's all... mixed up.  Sleeping a great deal, not able to wake as fully as would be needed to work.  It'll... come around, soon enough.

I should set an alarm for a few hours, with the hopes of taking a shower right about then.  Then get to work on the cages.  I really think they could go together quickly, if the plan works.  But there will have to be some engineering on the fly, even now.  The plans are... reasonably sorted.  But there are always, and I mean always, problems.  Still, a few hours at a time.  I suspect I can get a side and the bottom hinged, and installed, in one run.

Getting the far end installed will be and engineering project.  I need to make it so that it can slide the length direction of the cage, to allow the hinge(s) to fold.  But it also has to be able to be pinned in, somehow, so it doesn't fall apart.  As well, I have to do something to deal with the gaps due to the lack of square of the building... and maybe the cage pieces being off.  Tricky, really is.  A solid piece of wood would work, but it might well make it so that the cage can't be taken down without tearing things down.  I don't want to have to rip wood and nails out every time I need to clean.  Many problems with that.

Still, I... have a notion in my mind.  A wooden extended open square, into which remnant pegs could be installed... just removing these as needed, then sliding the end into where the begs were.  Couldn't be a square, but could be an "L"?  Maybe.  I'll know more when I get to that point.  Installing it will take odd structural supports, on the unsupported corner.  But on the wall, it should be easy... easy enough.  Probably.

Those are the only two areas which will be more complicated.  The rest should be okay.  Later.
