Another long day down.

.

.

It is 81 in this front room, if I think it was 76 before turning the machine and lamp on.  It is 79 in general.  The living room was 73, and the back area was cooler yet.  Just a little activity, and my presence, has caused everything to go up.  Upstairs was 71 near me, and 73 in the general area.  Very strange.

Outside is currently 74.  It is very overcast, but doesn't have the feel that it will rain.  I'll take the shade.  It isn't a cool 74, mind you.  It is just better than high 80's or 90's, maybe even higher.  It feels like a desert.  Nothing moist or cool to be sensed anywhere.

One duckling less.  It found a small pool, climbed in, and drowned.  Stupid animal.  The other one has a deep and shallow end.  This one isn't even that deep, it's a dishpan.  I didn't think it could get in, and should it, the water is only four inches deep.  Bleh.  Stupid birds anyway.  I dumped that pool, for now.

The rabbits look good.  Tired, worn, and such.  But... all living.  It's as much as I can do.  May still lose some to this heat.  And, yes, this is normal heat.  If anything, it has been cooler this year, until now.  Now it is normal or near normal, though it might go a bit high or low that little bit off-normal it might be.

Today was another painful day.  I tried to sleep through it, and did, mostly.  Waking every once in a while.  New pains.  Lightning strikes from my hips to my feet.  Sleeping too long?  Sleeping to motionless?  I can't be sure.  Similar other pains, muscular skeletal shoulders, neck, on up to include an occasional headache, the areas around the organs, and other things.  Very rough, even in sleep.

Medicine is back on a more exact schedule, and caught up.  I took morning pills as I woke, having taken evening pills when I went to bed, so I wouldn't have to go as often.  Still had to go a lot.  Very odd.  Then again I am drinking more because of  the dry and hot weather.

I'll open up the house in a few hours, when it goes to 70 or less.  It probably averages  a bit less than 73 in here, so it would just be heating the place up.  The girls have been fed, and their litter managed.  I have packages to bring in and sort.  Much of it more water.  That stuff allows me to not drink as much... any... tea.  If I could drink plain water, I would.  I do have a device which makes carbonated water, but not in the volume I need it.  As slow as my r.o. is, it would take a week of steady work to make a month of water.  

I couldn't stick with it, anyway.  It's either this, or tea.  And, possibly, this is only a bit more expensive than tea.  Kombucha might allow me to carbonate and use up the last of the tea.  Though it takes a month to make, too.  So... I suppose... in time.  But carbonated tea... which would help even more?  It would be different, anyway.  And, if I can drink a quart and an half of dairy kefir a day, I am pretty sure I can handle kombucha and water kefir... both are lighter in enzymes, probiotics, yeasts, and whatnot.

Ugh.  So warm.  Oh, and blood nose.  Last night I could taste it, this afternoon I had to manage an actual bleed out.  Bleh.  It's hard to get rid of the taste when it is so dry and hot.  Oh... I made some of that vinegar lemon juice mix.  That'll clear and replace... a bit tight on the gut, taken on an empty stomach.  But worth the bother, especially with irony bloody taste to remove.  Later.
