Cold.

I checked around 06:00~06:20.  It read 25.  While nip, not terrible.  Then, as I looked out around 07:30, it seemed light enough to get to chore.  There was a brim of clouds just on the eastern horizon, above even the mountains, keeping the sun from clearing, but with the rest of the sky open so that light bumped on past the clouds.

As I got to chores, it sure seemed a bit cooler, colder.  So, as I finished, I check again.  It was down to 20 F.  A five degree drop.  It often cools before sunrise, just one of those things.  I'd like to say five degrees is a bigger than usual drop, but... come to think of it, I really can't be sure.  All I know is that it was terribly cold this morning, compared to usual.  Well, not seasonally.  It could easily be 0, or even ten to twenty below, from time to time, this time of year.  Just, I guess, from recent norms?  Something.

Every waterer which still had water was frozen.  The rabbits did what they could, but there was a limit.  Still, they were all exceptionally happy with the waterers, with fresh water, warmed from being indoors.  Happy furry four footers, to be sure.  None of them were out of food, strangely.  But that is fine too.  Still, I added in extra.  To make sure it will last until tomorrow morning.

In an hour or two, I will test blood sugar, then begin prep for whatever I will eat.  I am really thinking a steak and salad.  If so, then I will have a cheese and deli meat dinner.  I just haven't had a steak in such a long time, that I really want one.  As well, I may fry burger, and keep that for throughout the week, for taco salad or even spaghetti.  Oh, no worries.  I have made purchase of various keto noodles.  They won't be great, but perhaps they will do?  I have four different kinds.  Will just have to find out.  I didn't remember to obtain spaghetti squash, but that is on the list, in time, as well.

I really am doing well, both with eating, medicine, and insulin.  I would really like to keep up on that.  Heaven knows, if I have to be here, I might as well make the most of it, as is possible.  Lord knows I have tried.  To be honest, I think the world has given up trying to kill me.  As did I a very long time ago.  I understand, as probably they finally do, death is a God thing.  Some of us are simply required to suffer life in all it's forms.  I have submitted to that, perhaps they have too?  Useless?  To the world, yes.  A burden?  Then again, who isn't?  Aye.

Anyway... so it is going.  I am excited for dinner.  I think I will bake the steak for an half hour, at 350, wrapped in foil.  Then fry both sides in hot oil, until there is a good crust.  I will vary times and degrees until I can get a medium, medium rare, right in there.  But actually generally cooked, not so raw as I am like to do otherwise.  Just... an odd way of things.  I may, if I get the kitchen cleaned, try the water bath method, to precook it.  Then fry to finish.  Oh, I suppose, I could even try the air fryer.  I'm looking for a perfect fit and finish, and the easiest, surest, and best end product.  Well, and of course, there is grilling.  *licking my chops*

Back to gaming.  Now that my fingers have thawed.  I need to find gloves, for when I go out in that.  Silly lad, forget the easiest of details at times.  Later.
