Slow?

.

.

As fast as I can, I suspect.  A bad heart really is a tough row to hoe.

Waterers all done.  I was surprised.  I thought it would take another bucket of water.  But, nope.  What I had worked.  Breakfast as usual.  It takes an half hour to hour to get that from start to the table.  But... I'm good with that.  A hot breakfast, or at least solidly warm.

Then the girls.  Their litter first, then feeding.  And, finally, when I was able to get to chores, fresh water plus an extra bucket for ongoing waterers.  And, after four or five hours, a second feeding.  chores were easy.  The closer group of rabbits... only one needed new water, and he wasn't completely out.  I may feed them in the morning, so I didn't mind leaving their waterers at half, though some of them had more than even that.  Running low on food, I'll check soon... the local coop.  If not, back to town.

It is chilly out there.  I would say below freezing, but not too far below.  Just enough that you know it's winter, not spring or fall.  Funny thing?  Winter, just like summer, requires more water!  To drink.  I have been drinking more than I had been through the mild fall season.  So, until I adjust, I may go up on the water pill.  Saw swelling in my feet, though that may have other causes as well... wearing slightly constricting longjohns seems to play a roll.  Just, did notice I had been drinking more, then sorted out why.  Cold or hot, on either extreme, requires more to drink.

None of that seems like much, but it did wear me out.  No shower yet, but that is the next thing on the list.  Then dishes, and maybe boxes?  With... my list getting shorter, those last two might actually get hit tonight.  I am playing games between work efforts.

I did get medicines, including slow acting insulin in.  With breakfast, I took 8 cc's of fast acting insulin?  Actually, 12 cc's, I think.  If that is too much, I'll begin cutting it to 10 or 8 cc's.  I'll check my blood sugar in about an hour.  I will have either another tuna salad for lunch, or a cheese and deli meat sandwich.  

I am hoping to have fried chicken gizzards for supper.  It's been a while, and those are among my favorite.  If they are too tough for you, boil them first.  Extra work, but it's up to you.  I love them.  Would have them once or twice a month if I could remember.  Hmm... would make excellent "croutons" on a salad, and go quite well with ranch, roquefort, a vinaigrette, or italian dressing.  Or... as I see things.

Well, back to gaming.  To get my breath back after chores and pales of water in.  Then a shower, blood reading, and lunch... or what passes for my lunch.  Good evening, night, morning...

--------------------

Blood sugar is 84.  Very good.  I can, at that range, cut to probably 8 cc's.  With lunch, of course, no insulin.  But another check in two to three hours, or more.  Right before supper, so I know whether I should dose or not.
