Cold and tired.

.
.
No major issues.  Running slow.  A bit ago, however, I realized I had to shut the house down and turn up some heat.  It was staying about 64 in here.  Good sleeping temps, but not good for getting much done.  It has warmed, but just.  I was gaming a bit while at it.

Chores have been done.  I called my mother back.  She called yesterday.  I had probably just turned off my phone, when I went in to eat?  About then.  Or maybe a little after.  I forgot to turn it back on.  In any case, she is finally feeling better.  From an incident, and after a shot meant to relieve her aches and pains.  Palsy, she says.  And an unsteadiness.

I pray for her.  Those things won't get better.  I just warned her to be more cautious.  She's... not a cautious woman.  Thankfully, so far, she has pretty strong bones.  She has taken a few spills, without breaks to date.  Still, I worry.  Being bed bound would kill her.  If they could keep her in it.  A good woman, in a lot of ways.  That is one of them.  She is doing very well for her age.  I'm just glad the shots have been able to manage pain... even if for just a while.

I am not sure I will get much work done.  I noticed a bunch of my forks and other silverware are gone.  There isn't anyplace they could really be hidden.  I just had the trays full, when I was in better shape and working well last time.  I have collected and washed all the flatware I could find.  There really isn't any place they could have been set aside.  Stolen.  I may have to start tracking everything that is missing and make an insurance claim.

Probably not a lot of work today.  More tired, worn, from yesterday, than anything.  The cool, while it kept me down, was more pleasant than anything.  The warmth will just be pleasant too.  Perhaps it will help me get to some work.  Though, maybe not.  I am not going to worry about today or even tomorrow, with as much as was done yesterday.  Though, if I can, even do small things, I will.  Perhaps collect the last of the empty boxes, out to be broken down.  Maybe breaking some of those down.  The rest will be food, critters, and light personal care.  Maybe a shower.

The hope is to be to bed at a reasonable hour.  Maybe by 20:00~21:00?  Something nice like that.  Trying to keep to days, as long as possible.  Summer, when it hits... even if it isn't warm... the light will extend my days.  Nothing I can do about it.  Mostly.  I can try.  I can push, shove.  I will.  I will also lose.  But... that is life... and death.  Amen.
