A snack, dinner, and supper.

.

I had to eat something.  Something was feeling wrong, too drained.  I had just let the ducks out, watering and making sure they had feed.  I was inside watching them just a bit, when I noticed some boxes which have been in my way for a while.  Not greatly in my way, just... bumping into my traffic path a bit.  I couldn't remember what was in them.

Food.  Crushed pineapple, with no sugar added, and diced tomatoes, some plain, some spiced.  Probably twelve per cardboard pallet and, maybe, six to seven of those?  Anyway...  I got them out, sorted, and... decided to take them right on down.  Since they were that close, I was right there, and it was on my mind.  Two trips and all was settled.

Two more empty boxes, which I didn't bother with, other than to move out of my pathway completely.  But, between the cold outdoors, that minor effort, and the larger effort of taking cans down, I was hitting something hard, and energy wall.  I needed something in me, nearly immediately.  Kefir, with a few berries and the sugar-free strawberry jam... just a teaspoon or so, as well as an ounce and an half of pecans and walnuts.  Almost feeling better.  That gave me an headache.  Stiff neck, tightening shoulders, which lead to the headache.  Perhaps overdoing things.

Even so, I have decided pressure cooked chuck for dinner, plus peas and/or beats.  For supper, brats... which are out thawing.  I haven't hit the dishes yet.  Was going to do that next, until I hit the wall and the headache... which is passing.  No anacin needed, just had to have something to eat it seems.  A bit weakened though.  Still, dishes in a bit, at least a first wash, then on to counters.

Life really is moving forward.  Things are being done.  As well, I am able to keep up on the daily stuff as well as doing more.  Or... for now.  Will just have to see.  I am pretty sure I wouldn't need this pace to still get out of 'domestic' prison.  Still, if I can keep it up, I can get out much quicker than a major single project a day.  Besides, I need a variety of work.  One thing, like just boxes, wears me a bit too much.  So doing parts of several jobs, or smaller jobs, each day, really allows for a lot more work.

Oh, it is still quite cold out there.  It has been 20 F since I woke, it hasn't changed since.  Frost on much, or at least before dawn.  Not sure if the bit of sun that is out did much to that or not.  I had to turn the heat up, or I just wasn't going to be able to work.  That cold will just seep into your bones and take all the will out.  Plus, being this chilly, I wanted to heat the rabbits' waterers.  Ah, I best get them fed and watered.  I just did the ducks before.  Oh, but I have to bring another bag of their feed in!  Ugh.  

I may put an egg casserole together as I head in to do a first hit on the dishes.  I don't think I'll be able to do a whole lot.  But those two things?  I... hope so.  Then another break.  Later.
