Difficult to wake this morning. The sun isn't out. Dark days make
it difficult to wake. Still, awake and going for things. As I was
dressing, I began making plans. First thing, simply, was turning up the
furnace for a bit, and putting the waterers out to warm up. As well, I
grabbed a few treats for the girls. Oh, and I finally remembered to pull
the ac's upstairs. Yea...
I had feared the ac's might be full of water. I wasn't sure where to put
them. I didn't know this, I wasn't sure about that, and else!
Then? I simply forgot. I pulled the first and... it sits in the
area easily. There is a very long sill? Something. Anyway,
it pulled very easily, and can stay in place. The other one was the
same. That... may well help cut my bill. As well, it cut the
sounds of vehicles. Oh... such a fool. But... live and
learn. And enjoy what you can.
A call, today. A shower before long. Dishes later. Chores in
an hour, giving the waterers time to warm. I will call my mom, again,
today. Just to let her know she is on my mind, and I am concerned for
her. She is having surgery in the spring. I offered to visit,
somehow, and help her. But she... thinks she has that covered. It
wasn't an empty offer, but she has a good situation. So...
As well, I have been thinking about kefir. After a few days, I was
beginning to wonder if the acidity was just too much. It was...
definitely... changing things in there. I liked most of it, but felt the
acidity might be becoming too much. I have been having three drinks a
day. Which... might be too much? I kept thinking, wondering, and
continuing anyway, the last few days.
I figured a few things out. First? Only have a larger portion if
using it as a stand-alone meal. Nearly sixteen liquid ounces is fine
twice a day. Second, having a smaller amount before any other meal
really helps digestions. Further, I suspect it helps non-keto,
non-diabetic friendly meals, digest better and seem much more friendly.
It... changes the whole board. Not that I should eat those things,
only... it helps when I fail. What it does for keto and diabetic
friendly foods is boosts their function into the stratosphere.
I had tried apple cider vinegar... with mother... as a digestive
assistant. I finally realize my problem. The recipe I received...
or my misuse of it... meant I was drinking far too strong of a
concoction. Oh, that was brutal. I tried it for a while, but it
just wasn't doing me right. Think about reverse acid reflux. Yea,
where the sun don't shine was burning instead of the throat. Too
much. Rather than figure it out, at that moment, I just backed
off. I may have found a better recipe.
Hmm... right... I was drinking far too strong of a mix.
Anyway, the deal is this... mix and match. I still want to drink
kefir, by the boatload. But, I want to add in this drink, and probably a
few others. Before meals, as meal replacements, even as snacks in
smaller amounts. And, not necessarily fulltime. Consume these for
a while, get bored, move on, but have them to fall back on. I am
guessing, especially in the summer, these things would be extra
delicious. As for kefir? I am slowly losing that nearly perpetual
dry throat feel. As well, I am drinking less tea. Further, I am
voiding liquids much more naturally? Yea. Strange, but I'll take
it. As well? Regularity is an easy thing.
As mentioned, I had, for a few days there, feared the kefir was going to do
what the (albeit too potent) apple cider vinegar drink had been doing...
burning down the house... plug. :p But, no. It was just my
body adjusting to things. Though I will moderate volume, and drink it
with meals. Say six ounces before eating... pretty much anything...
snack or full meal. And nearly sixteen ounces for a meal on it's own,
with berries or not, with liquid sucralose or not. It is quite filling.

Oh, a dream...
I was in church. A big church, packed in. I was sitting about half
way between the back and front, right next to the aisle. A woman,
dressed as a priest, was doing something up front. A man, in the back,
rejected her being there. She called him up. In spite of what he
said, he approached her. As he was going up, I got up and headed out of
the church. Just as I was leaving, I turned to see what was
happening. She murdered him with some bladed weapon, I couldn't see
exactly. I... continued out of the church.
Amen.
---------
Well, that's all folks. I have a call to make, after I wake. Early
afternoon should be good enough. Then a few other things. Oh, and
I keep thinking of getting the rabbit work going again. Yes, yes... I...
am getting back to things. And I think the kefir is a large part of what
is helping. Meds next. Yes, yes. I... will... get back to
living... as well as I am able. Be well, blessings, and good day.
