Nearly 80 outside?

.

.

Not a bad thing.  Or, at least not yet.  It is up to 72 inside.  Opening up at night, and closing up in the morning, is the trick.  I was lucky to be able to wake in time to shut everything down before it got too warm.  Not sure that will always be possible.  Which is why I am going to try to make it back to days, and keep to them... waking in the morning.

Still a bit in recovery from work, travel, and falls.  I'm not sure how much the fall hurt, as I can't tell what did which.  Most of the pain, most of the time, is in the background.  It's like adding fifty or a hundred pounds, in a backpack, to my back.  It just slowly eats my energy, even while sitting.  Though, sometimes I comes through.  Painkillers arrived today.  The ones the doctor suggests.

I am moving very slowly today.  I just got to chores.  The critters weren't hungry or thirsty.  Though a few rabbits were low on food or water.  I found a source for more small waterers and ordered them.  Actually I found two places.  One was two to three dollars more per, the other was double the price.  While I am hoping to get a gravity fed watering system going for them, I will always want the bottles for backup.  In the summer, I don't need as many, but in the winter, if I have to use them, I have to have enough for two per day for two days, for thawing and refilling turnaround times.  Just in case the bucket/tank freezes or something else goes wrong.

It looks like one of my ducks has lost her eggs.  There is one left, maybe two though if so, their nests are hidden and I have been looking.  I can hope some chicks will make it, but... just not sure.  I may just close her in, and get feed and water in there with her.  Or... just give up.  I'm not sure the ducks will work out.  Who knows.

The next trick is to get to bed earlier tonight.  As it warms, though, it becomes more difficult to sleep earlier.  If need be, I may put the ac in, and see if that will help.  Summers are always a bit tricky... more light, more heat.  I am willing to fight for it.  Especially as I acclimatize to the heat so much better for the last two years.  It isn't as much of a struggle.

Now for something to eat.  Later.
