From 47 at, oh, say 01:00 or 02:00, it was 45 an hour after sunup! Oh, I know it does it, from time to time. I simply didn't expect it today. All good.
I checked the rabbits, but decided to replace waterers. And, the ones with the smallest waterers, I gave them two. All are mostly full or fresh and completely full. All of the waterers were in place and working. I will check on them either before going to bed later, or after waking up.
Waterers were all refilled, and are ready to go. I have a three to four day supply, if they were needed daily. They aren't. It's spotty, the water demands. I do my best, which has been rather good. Not timely, not exact, not on a regular schedule, but daily... usually a bit ahead. Food can go dry, overnight, I don't mind that. But water, I want that there for them all the time. Perfection isn't possible. And things, like having a fresh full waterer somehow become removed and used as an animal soccer ball? I... can't control for all things. But I do my best.
More coffee. Hmm, I should have a very small dose of insulin with it. Just coffee and cream, no sweetener. Not... absolutely my favorite, but... it's... growing on me. It seems even the stevia triggers an insulin response. As with the other sweeteners I have tried, it's hit and miss. But it can be rather powerful, and from a very light single serving over a quart of my coffee mix... a cup of that being cream! Bleh.
Oh, it's gotten cool in here. I have closed up the... wait! I need to close up the upstairs. Best do that right after this. Then, sometime, when I can, a shower. And a shave. I did go back over some areas which were missed, dry. But I'd like to mow the gesicht verge, clean and proper.
I am hungry, too. But... I need to sit. While chores didn't beat me up this morning, staying up all night, cooling down good and plenty, doing chores and a few associated tasks, and else... I need a bit of a break. But, towels to put out. I keep washing them over each night, then not getting them out. Today. After a shower, so I can get that towel too.
Oh... and... after the one mouse was... probably eaten by Sassy (I think she was jealous, to be honest, not hungry... she had a guilty look on her face)... I caught another, in one of the rabbit feeders. This time I didn't let it get away, or bite me! I brought it in, to replace the one that got et. (Legal Scrabble word, or at one time, a past tense of eat, like eaten, only niftier.)
Anyway, I was holding it, trying to tame it, and it jumped and got away. So sad, too bad? Then, yesterday? I found it in my trap, in the basement. I am not sure how long it had been there. Still alive. So... back in the tub tank. There is food and water aplenty. An old muscle shirt, and some paper, to hide and play in. I should get a cage for the thing... so Sassy doesn't get jealous again. Sam seems to just be out of the killing game, these days.
She, Sam, is well into her 20's, maybe 25. I... understand. She still misses her kittens. I... know this... I feel this. And, now, all small furry things have become distant reminders. She, like me, is seeing beyond the veil. She no longer calls for them, I think she just... sees them, understands some things only the dead and dying can know. We are so close to that edge.
Well... coffee'll do that to you! Chattered like a harried housewife with a knicker bocker of a whodiddy? :P Good morning and day.
