It seems slow, but really it isn't as it seems.

.

It is 10:36.  What, three hours up?  A late wake, but a late down.  In part because of work, yesterday... as little as that really was.  Still, it was a first real start in a very long time.  Several projects were started, some to completion.  I was tired, but a bit off as bedtime approached.  I even remembered medicines.

I usually don't get started on things until several, two often, hours after waking.  And that when I am doing better.  This morning, I got started right away.  Laundry set to a final run in the dryer, and a load put in the wash.  Perhaps a few other things?  Cats fed.

No, I have put the washing load into the dryer, and have that going.  Added a new load to the wash.  Refilled all the waterers I had available.  Refreshed the cats' water.  Made tea, and breakfast... breakfast is brewing, tea is going down with this.  Had medicine, save insulin... that goes with breakfast anyway.  A few other things?  Oh, turned the furnace up, both to warm the place a bit for a shower, but to warm the waterers as well.

It is 32 out there.  But it feels colder, and probably was.  I'd bet the waterers out there are frozen.  So I'll need to pull those, put fresh, thaw, and refill even those.  I will check later.  Hoping to water the rabbits twice a day.  If their waterers freeze, there is a limit to how much I can do.  But, fresh water, twice a day, will definitely keep them alive.  Especially since they learn that, as long as they keep the water moving, it stays open longer.  And, yes, they... do sort that out.  Did last year, anyway.

Vitamins and minerals, but I haven't had electrolytes yet.  They really are helping.  With all, as is, one water pill seems to be enough.  If health improves, I may... see about that.  Depends on the doctor, but with one pill keeping me on the verge of dehydration, perhaps half the dose, or a milder medication?  Just, as things improve, if I can maintain them... medications, some of them, might be adjusted.  I'd like to not pee at night, again.  While I have minimized the affect of that, it is still an annoyance.

Perhaps I can find a more sedate, peaceful, less painful, more awake, slide to my end.  I have ripped and torn the world and myself to get to this point.  I will do so as required, until it is no longer required.  But I wouldn't mind some peace, rest, civility, gentility... just even a few months, or years.  Either way, so be it.  Or, amen as you might know it.  Yes, amen.
