A bit more than expected.

.

It took as long to get to it as expected.  But I was able to do more when I got to it.  A shower.  A nice, long (seeming), heavy shower.  Since I showered yesterday, it was mostly a little soap and a lot of water time.  Still, probably half the shower yesterday.  I don't get out until soap and shampoo lathers, and then rinses clean.  Doubly clean today, in half the soap etc.

After, I shaved.  I missed a big patch on my right cheek, somehow, so in a few I will go in and get it done correctly.  It's... been a while.  Then, I dressed just enough to get the dishes started.  All of them?  No.  Though some items can only be washed off, they can't be soaked.  I got most of what can be soaked set to hot sudsy.

I don't even feel too bad.  Tired, but no more than when I started.  Perhaps the shower was invigorating.  The aches and pains are lighter, if I think the painkillers finally kicked in a bit.  Though the shower can ease those too.  The effort was light, as pretty much everything was set to go.  I had to put one batch in a larger dishpan, but the other was good as was.  And I used the smaller dishpan which had been stitched out for, mostly, the last of the soakable items.

Now to finish dressing, in a bit.  I like to air out a bit before dropping into clothes.  On the good side, I used the last towel which was machine dried.  The remaining towels were line dried.  Oh, those are so much more thirsty, and scratch itches.  I absolutely love line-dried towels.  I am not sure about clothes, but I suspect so.  I don't have delicate skin.  Leatherhided.  I prefer a little strength and resistance from my clothes.

When I can shave, I am hoping to finish clothing, then hit the dishes a first time and set them back up.  Give them some time to finish soaking, then get them finished and at least out to dry yet tonight.  If I can get them away, plus do boxes, and some more upstairs?  This week will end up being a massive victory.

I am still so very far behind, but I have to balance that with where I started, when I could, and where I am now.  And, yes, it is something.  Probably only twenty hours of work, and it had to be now, and then, here, and there.  Nothing I could sell.  If something I can gain spring-boarding from.  If I keep this up, I will have to figure out swimming again.  At least, once the cave is corrected.  At 75%, if I make it that far, I will begin seeking swimming access.  I found my swimming gear last night, and... yeah...  I... yea... yes.

Well, on to... something.  A kefir?  Just a small berry smoothie?  Yes, that would be good.  Though, if I am out there, I may just finish shaving.  Clothing and hitting dishes will wait though.  Ugh-a-chug.  But it is getting there, it is moving quite nicely.  I hope your day is good.  Later.
