Chores were swiftly finished, if I hadn't done them as of last post. Rabbits were almost all good with food, but needed water, a few, most. I gave a few of them attention, but not all. Soon I will begin handling them. As well, possibly, grooming them a bit. I have gloves with bristles, for furry pets and such. I bought it for the cats, but after sorting things out with them, they prefer just scritchy scratches. I would like to try it on the rabbits.
There are still four chicks, remaining, for now. Bigger each day. I don't have a lot of hope for them, but so be it. Until I can arrange a safer group of arrangements, I'm not sure many will make it. I'll... work on that. Soon. I hope. I would like to have enough to have, say, eight to ten food birds a year, then replace a few birds each year. A few more hens would be nice, and I may just replace the indian runners without adding to their numbers. Anyway... if I can manage nesting/hatchling zones which are large enough for mom and younglings, it'll work out. Time... always need more time, or... energy.
With just one meal of kefir, and 20 cc's of fast acting insulin, blood sugar went from 217 to 88 currently. That... really shouldn't happen like that. I'll have more kefir, and make 'kraut and kielbasa very soon. Before a crash happens, hopefully. Not many, if any, carbs in there. But the fats? More the proteins, proteins will help. I don't want to use tabs again.
I am collecting bottles. I have been... leaving them to breed and run around like idiots. Well, I... definitely have enough. More than enough. For use as water filled, frozen, cooling systems for the rabbits. I have three bags of them, filled, and frozen, for when it warms up. I also, after collecting, and so far, have about six bags of them elsewise. I will probably recycle most, save maybe two bags for replacements if they don't hold up. Ugh. But, collecting them is a start. From now on, other than what I have set aside, the rest will go into recycling immediately. Ever start something, then forget... lose track... and not stop! Ugh.
I have closed the house up. Outside had dropped to 57, last I looked. The feel is that it will keep dropping. Down to freezing again? Maybe. But it will get cooler or just cold out there. I turned the furnace up, because while the temps are reading 67~69, it doesn't feel like it.
A meal, then a shower and shave? I can hope. I definitely enjoy catching up and keeping up, when possible. Then some work in the bathroom? Maybe. If I can get the shower and cleanup, in there, I would like to start dishes, and maybe towels. Put them out on the line? Not this time. Or... maybe. I just... I'll think about it.
Later. Best eat before something bad happens.
