So very cold.

.
.
Dressed warmly, eating and drinking hot foods and drinks, the furnace is up.  Everything I can do, to be warm, and yet I am frigid.  No real way to get warm.  I'll try a few things though.  To be honest, I think it is just my body not being able to function.

I wasn't really able to do much today.  I did have some things, easy things, to eat.  But I wanted something more, something better.  A real meal.  I called a friend, to see if he might be heading to town, or even in town.  Just... in case.  As it turned out, he was not in town, and was not going to go to town.

Well, okay.  Still, knowing what I had wanted, he had an option.  Dinner, served.  He was making brisket, for his family.  Would I like some?  Pftftft!  Would I!?!  Yes, yes indeed.  I had only been expecting a bit of meat.  I ended up with a pretty good platter, plus potatoes, broccoli, and brussels sprouts!

He discussed having difficulty with this brisket.  Overcooking it, a bit.  Through a technical error.  I just commiserated.  So easy to make a mistake.  And, every time you cook foods, it... it's different.  It is always a bit of a trick.  Before tasting.  He was gone before I dug in.  He had nothing to worry about.  It was quite good.  Smoked well, too.  I'm not the best at smoking things, he seems to have it down.  He wouldn't even take a dime of dollars or else.  So, I did get a very good meal.  Just for the asking.

Anyway...  I did a few tricks, and seem to be slightly warming.  Can't be sure what the problem is, but lately, I just can't get warm.  Blood pressure medicine has been every day for seven days, today.  Blood sugar is, mostly, being controlled.  I am drinking enough.  Ah, eating.  I am probably not eating even a thousand calories a day.  Today may well help.  But, I should eat more.  I have thawed meat, for today but I just wasn't able to get to it.  Tomorrow.  I'll be ready for better eating.  Grilling myself.  Just pork chops, thin cut, but that should do.  Eggs and bacon early?  And a chia breakfast, if for lunch?  Yeah.  I need food.  That might be the problem.

Goodnight.
