Quite a day.

.
.
Friday is it?  I... was thinking it was Wednesday, Tuesday?  I... needed the rest I have had the last few days.  The cool had helped, but also caused a loss of cognition?  Time died, for a bit, as with energy and mental faculties.  All good, as I wrote, I really did need rest.  Of all sorts.

I keep thinking I am missing something.  I may be.  But I made the appointment, phoned in scripts, had an appointment set for a heart checkup...  Always missing something, but, for now... it's good.  I did start insulin last night, and am taking fast acting before meals... but very small amounts, at the moment.  Carb tabs are back in, and more on the way.  Yeah, I can tear through those when things go wrong.  I don't ask the V.A. to pay for all of them, but some of them.  I do my best.

Outside, though, is hitting 78 or so.  Spring is here.  Will it last?  I'll take what I can get.  No shower, or anything else.  Yet.  I am hoping to get out and begin getting the cages set up.  I think I can.  Today.  And, maybe, work in the bathroom, getting it cleaned and sorted.

I bought cleaning supplies last month.  Brushes, spray bottles, a caddy for those and cleaning rags, dusters of various sorts, even window cleaning gear.  Nothing fancy, but enough to get started if... when... I can start.  I should have enough of this and that to create a spray cleaner for various areas.  Recipes are best, and a close look over ingredients.  Ammonia and chlorine are a bad mix, even dish soap and bleach or so I have heard.  I will need to formulate something for the floor in there.  Well, not the floor, mostly cracks and crevices and tile grout.

I think the cages first, though.  Why?  To get the rabbits separated.  It is too late, in my mind, for breeding.  But not too late to get them separated and ready for fall.  And, perhaps, yet this month, set up a pail watering system, drip feed.  I would like to try to make it nearly as freeze proof as possible.  Then make minor tweaks as fall then winter arrive.  I do have some hope to have something in place by October.

Oh, as to the actual reason why?  To warm up.  It's still cool in the cave.  Oddly, at ~72, I am chilled in here.  Funny, I am acclimating quickly.  Though as it goes higher?  I do remember when 70 was too warm to sleep, but too cold to act.  Even now, not doing so well, still acclimating to medicine, 72 is too chill?  A good sign, I think?

I received the liquid stevia.  I tasted it, raw.  It does seem sweet, and not weird.  I added some to my kefir.  It didn't have much of an effect?  On closer reading, the small print... I had used three drops in a larger cup of the stuff.  Serving size is five drops.  I used half of that or so, in something needing, probably, two servings.  So... yea.  I mean, I did taste a nudge toward sweetness, but not as much as I thought should be there.  But the dosing makes sense.  Will try it in tea later.

On to the cages.  Good day.
