A very bright morning.

.
.
When to bed?  After the dark noon.  Maybe as late at half after one?  Earlier, though, I think.  More like half after midnight?  Can't be sure.  Awake right at nine.  A... reasonable sleep.  I almost woke earlier, just wasn't ready.  Oh, the pain I thought was my heart?  It... really isn't.  It's more like hitch in my upper right-hand ribs.  A big hitch.  Must have grab-lifted something too quickly.  It's not the heart.  Hurts from front upper middle chest, on to the underarm inseam, then on to the back shoulder blade.  Puts on a good hurting heart imitation.  Or... maybe that's how it hurts?  Odder things have happened.  Still, I think it's just a muscle pull.  Still hurts pretty good though.

I am pleased with yesterday.  Want to keep it up.  Will take a bit to get going.  It is in the mid 20's out there.  With the sun up, I suspect it will get warmer... unless a wing blows, or else comes through.  Perhaps my dire considerations, weatherwise, were just that.  One can hope.  In any case, I think I can carry on today with what was started yesterday.

All of it?  Well, I... won't worry about that.  I will just work, on a particular project, until I need a rest.  Either going back to it, of moving to a lighter or different project as able.  I... think things will work out.  And work out sooner than I had anticipated.  First things first, dishes.  When able, I will hit those, then reset them.  After hitting them a second time, I may take another shower, then put them back in for a rinse.  The counter for drying them is clean and clear.

The only thing that could mess up the tower would be when starting the chicken stock.  Though even then, I don't think so.  It won't be all that messy.  Possibly spilling water?  I have cutting mats for the veggies.  That shouldn't be a problem.  And it will be a bit before I am ready to air dry dishes anyway.  Hopefully putting the last of the dishes in to be washed shortly.  As well, I hope to set up the garbage today, bagging bins... for trash and recycling... and collecting anything not collected yesterday.

And, finally, I am hoping to begin working on the cages in the outbuilding.  I have stalled on that, in part because it means a long walk to feed and water those cages.  It also means more waterers will have to be purchased.  I was going to do that anyway, but that was for extras.  These cages put into play will require more per day.  If I house each separately, it will take fourteen, whereas currently it only takes... six.  However, I have some smaller waterers which simply aren't being used.  Too small for groups.  Perfect for one.  It'll... work out.  

But, today?  Just putting in separators, and turning those into, mostly, a gents dorm?  Or beginning?  And, maybe, putting poopshoots between cages, so lower levels aren't bottom rungs.  :p  If nothing else, I will take a panel of metal roofing out there, and police up the tin snips for cutting it.  There may be wood out there, for supports, though I have plenty if not.  Whether today or later this week, the other thing is to knock out a support table to get the lower cage lifted.  As well, I need to start bagging their leavings... fertilizer.  As well, if I can get enough cages arranged, and the gents settled in, I will begin the breeding program.  Ugh.

Breakfast first.  Then dishes when I can.  And then on to whichever comes next... chores?  Before dishes, actually.  Ah, best turn the heat up for just a bit.  Good day.
