Surprising.

I thought I would be in a bit of distress upon waking.  I really hurt when going to bed.  I did everything I planned to do, I think.  I didn't reset the trash cans, they were still wet.  But the shower, dishes, even that spoon, rinsing the tea jug and letting it air out, laundry, and... a few other things?  I pretty much got it.  Even the instapot is reset and ready to go.  But it hurt the whole time, and I was so very tired.

A handful of tylenol, I think, while allowing my hair to dry.  Sleep was fast and hard.  It was after 18:00 before I finally crashed... minutes or an hour after though?  I know hair had dried, mostly.  A fell into sleep, not to sleep.  Wonderful, quiet, dark, painfree, restful sleep.  I did start waking around midnight?  A car, or bird, perhaps the cats... something.  Then every hour or two until around 03:00.  I tried to sleep longer.  Next it was 03:30.  I still wanted more sleep.  At 03:45 I gave up, got up, but in good shape.

It was 55 upstairs... with the windows open.  It was nearly that downstairs, with the furnace off but no windows open.  So, I turned on the furnace.  A bit of an ache, more an echo, and mostly just the shoulders and neck 'roots', not the biting horror of pain which had been the whole of that area on up to the upper back part of my skull.  An easier day, but some stretching while working, will work that out.  I checked outdoors, it is 28 F.

The trash pails should be dry.  I'll bag those first.  Dishes should be dry and can be put up.  I can hit the dishes sometime soon.  As well, I'd like to do more cleaning downstairs.  A second wipe down of the areas.  I have been using both steel wool and an old cloth facecloth.  As well, I can go through things, sort.  Washing off what is still good, setting aside what is to go and beginning to dispose of it.

The other two things I'd like to at least begin, is going through boxes looking for two things... packing, to be broken down and put out... and food stuffs, to be collected and then begin taking that down.  As well, I would like to begin breaking camp... moving my bedding and picking up the bedroom, moving most of it over so as to soon begin vacuuming and steam vacuuming up there.  I will put down baking soda, and let that absorb odors as it wants for a few days, before vacuuming.  Plus, there may be cat goop to deal with.  They vomit, but hide it sometimes.  Ugh.

If I can, that will be the day.  In parts, pieces, spats, and parcels, as I can.  Oh, I would like to do the roast in the instapot.  I have soup, but... I really need veggies for that, which will have to wait until Monday.  I'll check on the kefir, see if some of it is ready for the fridge.  Oh, and have a cup of that shortly, while I'm messing with it anyway.  I don't think that is enough for hunger.  Hmm... two eggs and three or four small (thirds) of bacon would do.  Really, one or a bit more actual piece of bacon.  Cutting them in thirds keeps consumption down, but also makes them fry flatter, and makes them easier to manage in the pan while frying.  Bacon, eggs, and kefir, oh my!  Later.
