So almost ready for bed!

.

Chores were finally done.  As well, it is cooling.  Last I checked, and hour or so ago, it was down to 53.  It feels cooler yet.  Chilly.  I almost suggested "maybe".  No maybe about it.  Even here, near the warmth of the machine, with the light and router going, it is down to 72?  Yes, chilly.

I did tend the girls' litter, twice today if I remember correctly.  I will feed them, again, tonight.  I have been feeding them, well, I think.  But they are so very hungry anyway.  Perhaps I haven't been feeding them on a good schedule, or their schedule.  Which, yea, can throw a person, even a cat woman... or two.  So, yes, I'll feed them again as I head to sleep.

I did make another 'cup' of tea.  This was a second brewing, at 175.  I am going to try one more brewing, but this time at boiling.  The higher temperature is in an attempt to obtain as much flavor as might be left in the leaves.  There may be very little flavor left, but that makes the next full strength cuppa taste that much fresher, deeper, more pleasant.  I will try a lower temperature next time, and similar brewing time... two to three minutes.  With the chill coming on, warm to hot tea does a body good, as does coffee.

Oh, and I need to get back to kefir.  I haven't been doing well enough to do this correctly.  I really enjoy the stuff, and would have enjoyed it in the heat.  I just couldn't keep up on production.  Wonderful stuff.  Homemade.  I know what is in it (assuming no one spikes it, which I can't).  Still, generally, it works... generally.

It hasn't been a perfect week.  I have had to push and shove to get anything done.  I am absolutely exhausted from all the effort to do the little I could do.  Even chores are tripping me up, wearing me out.  Hopefully, with the timed items tended, I can slowly begin to do more.  Slowly, but... more certainly?  I... can hope.  And pray.  If you want to offer a favor, offer a prayer.  Even if it doesn't help me, it will help you.  Amen.

A few pieces of cheese, before I go to bed?  I wonder if I have some pecans, or pistachios.  I have overeaten today, but am hungry nonetheless.  I'd hate to wake with a pillow missing and sore throat.  Though... I would be full.  Still, that would be a rather... expensive meal.

Good night and morning.  See to you, again, hopefully a bit after sunup.
