A long day.

.

.

I didn't get the phone call made.  But I got much else done.  Some grocery shopping, if I forgot mushrooms.  A few other needed checks, on prices.  Not a lot of money, so I won't push.  I am trying to store up, even just a bit.  It goes so fast though!  I am done spending for the month, minus any bills incoming, and there are always bills.

I should be good on groceries, save maybe a few fresh veggies.  I pay the milk bill at least a month in advance.  Water... utilities... seems caught up.  Hmm, I may buy real feed, not wheat, soon.  Oh, I should have bought tylenol and more ibuprofen while out.  Next month, again, I will check for more waterers.  They simply may not stock them again until spring... the ones I use.

I also did a little practice, with towing a small trailer.  It's more a skill that could come in handy, for me or others, soon or late.  You would think you could just do it.  I can back my vehicle very well.  A trailer is just a bit more finicky.  Think the difference between the girlfriend and the wife... and should they meet.  :p

Mostly a passenger.  But I did some go fetch, and minor else.  Exhausted.  But my cold has, mostly, been under control.  Meh.  A few ibuprofen and a shot of vodka in something would be good.  I did check the waterers.  Two were out, one was frozen up.  So I replaced those.  The rest were still flowing and had enough that I didn't bother with them.

I fed the girls.  I'll hit their litter in a bit, as I grab a pail of water for their water bowl.  They seem to really enjoy the fresher water, and Sam doesn't pee as much?  Softened water, they had been drinking.  I just didn't think I had an easy alternative, until I began tending rabbits, it just seemed too much extra.  Still, I... do what I can for them.  And for it, Sam is doing her best to stay alive.  She worries about her ogre, as he worries for her.

It was a good day.  And well warm enough to be out and about without longjohns, a second top layer, or ever really warm socks.  I didn't even need a jacket.  Just my medium grade thermal top, nylon cargo pants... nylon?  I think so, synthetic socks, and boots.  Very warm.  It is about 22 F out there.  Perhaps, as my health improves in various ways, I can handle the cool a bit better again?  Maybe.

Later.
