How is that possible?

I woke at 07:00, pretty much on the dot.  Here, as I sit, it is 08:00?  Definitely on the dot.

I did a bit, before sitting, but?  Let me think.  I started out working upstairs.  Picking a few things up, including water bottles as I have started sipping at night, sometimes.  Then picking up scraps of paper and such up from off the floor.  I grabbed a couple of boxes, two, small, to be brought down and broken.  Just a bit more tidying.  Okay.

Ah, then, since it was just dawn, I remembered... before letting the birds out, I needed to refresh their feed.  Which, at this point, is a combination of three bags.  So, into the garage, one bag at a time, until I had all three over there.  I have to mix them.  the only good way to do that is to put partial bags in, blend within reason, then add another say third, and on until I have them all in.  So, yea, that takes a while.  And will break a sweat.

Then to feed the ducks, put it out for them.  And while doing that, I redid their pool, mostly.  I cleaned it yesterday, so just dumped and replenished today.  Usually don't do that twice in a row, just a few times a week.  But while I was at it.  Though that didn't add any time, really.  Still, that... all... I guess that took an hour.  It seemed to go by so fast though!  Not really awake yet?  Right.

A lemon perrier, cheaper than beer or soda, so I can't complain.  Teeth brushed too.  I try to remember before eating, and give it an half hour.  Not sure if there is acidity in the perrier?  Never can be sure about anything.  Still, done.  As I type, and wake, I'll figure out the day?  Could start figuring while I am writing, waking, and sipping.

First, dishes.  A good hit.  And, if they seem to be clean, a rinse.  Then I have to hit counters, so as to get the pots, pans, and else out to air dry.  I won't just do the ones which haven't been hit, might as well do the "clean" ones first, then get the crusty ones.  Everything has been used, everything needs it.  Then finish the dishes.  Then begin calling again.  Oh, but a shower in there.  A trim too, probably before I hit dishes.

Other than a few more boxes broken down any anything that goes with it, and trip to the basement with a broom, food, and mousetrap gear and bait... that might be it for the day.  If so, between calls, I may begin doing a few simple(?) projects.  I have the supplies and kit to make monkey fist keychains.  I'd like to kick a few of those out, at least one.  As well, I've been wanting to make a sling, like what David used against Goliath.  I have the leather and cord.  I have also been curious about making from parts of other leather thimbles and from raw materials, a leather thimble or three of my own.  The bought ones are too small, but with a little refitting, they might work.  Making one whole cloth should definitely work.  Further, I'd like to make a few different sizes.  So as to be able to use any of a number of my fingers to push the needle through... whichever angle presents best for whichever shot.  I'm looking for fit of thimble and speed of sewing.  Perhaps thimbles on several fingers on each hand?  Who knows.  Just a thought.

Hobbies, crafts, something to do when I can't do much.  And, things which might lend to me getting out more often.  If I can get the sling down, just looking for fit stones, along some dry dusty riverbed, or ravine?  Dunno.  It would give me a reason to be out.  Sure, you could use steel ball bearings, but those will cost you a fortune.  And minting your own lead ammunition would cost too.  Not sure about anything, but... something to do.

Ugh, time to wake.  My lungs have a tickle from carrying the grain.  Glad that isn't a daily.  Later.
