Awake.

.
.
Technically, awake a quarter or so before seven, but... couldn't actually get out of bed until 08:00.  I had plans to hit dishes, clean the pee jug, and have breakfast ready and going down before sitting down to write.  But that... just... isn't going to happen.  I need wakey time.  All good, all good.  As long as I get to a couple two or three sessions of work, it'll work out.

Dishes first, the first wash, just to clear them, mostly.  Then boxes.  If I get through a large portion of the boxes, back to dishes.  Perhaps a final wash, short rinse, then getting them out of the way.  There are more dishes to wash, but... I may hold off on those for a while, a day or two.  Just focus on boxes and clearing floors, sorting, and storing or tossing.  Trying to do two taxing efforts at once is a bit much, but I can't just leave the dishes.  I need to shower tomorrow.

The sun is up, out, and bright.  It is only 30 out there, but that it is 30 at what is often the coldest part of the day is a good sign.  I sure hope it warms.  I have been enjoying the 40s weather.  Especially if the sun is out too.  Blood sugar is 153 fasting.  Stupid potato.  Still, weekly average is 135.  Though, was it the potato, or the extra slice of roast last thing before bed.  When I break intermittent fasting, that actually often is worse than a small indulgence of carbs.  Both, maybe.

Ugh.  Breakfast water is heating, probably ready to begin brewing.  I am cutting protein powder, for a while.  Pee is getting foamy.  Yea, it's a sign of too much protein.  I think some of it is a body problem, because it does that even when I am eating little protein.  It's one of the things the docs have gone on about for years.  But I haven't had much protein to cut from my diet, so I know it wasn't from too much meat or other proteins.  Heck, when I checked, I was getting 60 grams of protein a day on "good" (high protein) days.  Often I would get half that.  So, I don't get it.  But, I will back off the additives for a bit.  Follow the signs.

I will still eat protein... eggs, bacon, roast, steak, chops, but only eating one or two smaller protein meals a day.  Someone suggested they eat chia for protein?  There are only two grams per tablespoon, and many people only eat one tablespoon.  I eat three, which only adds six grams of protein.  I don't even consider it a source of protein.  It has double that in fats per whatever dose (four grams per tablespoon) and fifteen grams of carbs, mostly fiber though.  Anyway, I'm backing off protein additives for a bit.  It hasn't been a problem, until now.  But, as mentioned, I'll follow the signs.

Morning meds definitely down, this morning.  I can't believe I forgot(?) yesterday.  I was sure I took them.  I do my best.  Then again, I haven't missed medicines, even with supply disruptions, in... a month, three?  Or... close.  I have been doing very well.  If that is no excuse, reason, or such, to miss.  But, I wouldn't have missed if I knew I was missing!  :)

As soon as I can, I'll hit dishes.  Then a break.  There are a lot of dishes.  I overdid a bit.  All good.  I'll have most of them out of the way.  Still some remaining, but... nearly getting there.  I may just focus on dishes, actually.  When I get this batch done, then I can just focus on boxes, clearing floors, and filling the dumpster.  I doubt if I will get it full this week, but by next week it should be as full as I can fill it, and will then go back.  Yes, for now.  If, in time, I need it back, then and only then.  Oh... one more piece of furniture.  Some kits just aren't worth the money.  I would say none of them are, these days?  A rolling kitchen "wood" cart, that looked good online.  I may see if it can be fixed.  But... it may just go.  Stick with steel, I think.

Anyway...  Just got a call from the appraiser.  I'll call the loan manager shortly, see about some things.  But, then, get to work.  Work, work, work.  Later.
