So... sort of slogging at intentions.

.

.

Work was done.  I kept hoping I'd find extra strength.  Nothing was available.  No more digging, no raking, and no unloading, at least so far.

I did get to the soup.  I decided against adding stewed, diced, or pureed tomatoes.  Instead, I simply added extra water and fresh vegetables.  As it turns out, that was... sufficient.  Not to merely make the stew into a sufficient soup, but to turn it into a very good soup.  I was more than pleased with it as a dinner.

I wanted to try simple changes, one at a time.  And, happy as I am with this, I will add tomatoes, of one sort or another, to tomorrows mix.  Very happy.  I think I will be just as happy with the tomato mix.  I like variety, and try to make whatever variety as good as it can be.  I don't mind soup being super filling.  It is rather keto friendly, especially with a lot more liquid than solid.  Delicious.

At this point, I am finally going to go up and work on Japanese.  Just a bit.  Then, probably, a nap.  My first two lesson books are in, but those won't even be opened until I have hiragana and katakana down flat.  A week?  No, no chance.  A month?  Doubtful.  I would guess, bare minimum, a month per type, with review of the other ongoing.  Then, maybe a review of both, taking another month... so... three months?  Difficult to know.

I am tracing, in the air, and in the book, the letters, sometimes, rather than writing them every time.  Practice in each as a regular?  So far, yes, from time to time.

Oh, something I heard about, so want to try out?  Blue highlighters and red clear (cellophane?) pages.  From what I was told, highlighting in blue allows reading of the printed material, but putting the red page over it, and the written material can no longer be read.  I hate writing in textbooks, even worksheets.  But this?  This is doable.  If it works with what I have.  It would also work well with flashcards, for the various ways of writing something. Yes, that means I use printer paper to draw/write hiragana, rather than the workbook.

So tired.  I used up every bit of energy I had this morning.  I just... thought... some would return.  Perhaps after a nap.  As mentioned, first, finishing the Japanese lesson, perhaps reviewing the part already done afterward.

The Latin materials ordered are also in.  Plus, I found the other Latin materials I ordered in the past, before I understood, and found materials for, ecclesiastic Latin.  I think what I have is based on classics, though the dictionary may swing both ways?  Then again, maybe I did realize my mistake, and find ecclesiastic learning materials as well.  I will have to review it, when I get to that point.  All I can say for sure is that there is a lot more ecclesiastic material available now than there used to be, on yt, at amazon, and elsewhere.  I think there is a bit of a revival, or younglings coming back, or even to, the church?  But to learn, or in an attempt to bring even more socialism/communism in?  Not... something I have much time to worry about.

On to lessons, then a nap.  I will be watering the lawn tonight.  I won't, if plans carry through, be going for the drive tonight.  So, I should be able to get the watering done rather early, maybe be done by 22:00 to 23:00.  And, finish night chores while at it.  Oh... I think I will get frozen water, in the bottles, out for the rabbits today.  I don't do it every day, but... I try, when I haven't overdone, or fallen.

Later.
