Finally awake.

Struggled to get down, struggled to wake.  Hurt asleep and awake.  I had been thinking I had gone to bed at 21:00, but by looking at posts, I guess not.  Down around 05:00 to 06:00?  Sometime in there.  If I had remember that, I wouldn't have struggled so hard to wake up!  I just hate sleeping too long.  I woke around 09:30?  Give or take a quarter.  Time is a thief!  It's one of the few situations in which a quarter is only fifteen!

Sassy was fed.  She was really hungry.  Not sure she should have been?  Can't remember.  But, she is fed.  I cleared her litter later last night, and through the day, so she is probably pretty good that way.  I'll check in a bit.

Kefir was reset this morning.  I have three full half gallon jars of the stuff, plus three quarts going.  I will eat on those like a pig, until I am satisfied, then cut back consumption and production.  I'll put just a tablespoon or too of grains in one, add milk to two thirds, and put it in the fridge... after washing it out so that it is a very slow process.  Then, once or twice a month, pull that out and reset that.  Keeping it as stock.  I'll tie it to every bed remake, mattress reroll... which I have been doing weekly and rather well, regularly.  It is good to live well, and sleep cleanly and neatly.

I am having three cups of the stuff for breakfast.  Might have as much later.  I really enjoy kefir.  But it has been hard to produce enough, and keep on top of it.  I think this is the way, if consumption will naturally wane, at times.  Still, I could probably enjoy three cups a day, on any given day, and maybe average more like five cups a day?  A 280 pounder has... more nutritional needs, like it or not.  Now, it isn't as bitter as I prefer it, but I am not fully used to it yet either.  So, this works.

Today?  Trash out.  A shower.  Trimming and shaping the beard... I'll see how it looks.  Roasting the pork shoulder blade roast.  And just keeping up on the little things.  I still hurt, terribly.  Innards, mostly, here and there.  Arteries in the neck have... soothed.  Headache is lighter, and hit or miss.  Ribs are okay.  Shoulder sockets hurt... I think that has become a permanent issue.  Stomach is just a bit out, the whole g.i. tract really.  Perhaps kefir will help that.  Or, maybe, kefir is what could be doing things, as it... does it's magic.  It is a chemical type cleanser.  Anything that has been there a while will cause problems.  It will rip and tear until it clears out the old and bad and replaces it with new, aggressive, and powerful.  Or... so they say.  Though what it did to corn, even without having been on it for a long time, is sort of proof to me.  Pulverized corn, save that very last batch.  But as much as I ate, that was fair enough.

I will be watching my spending this month.  The only thing I want to add to, is my freezer meats.  I would love to find hamburger, and can some of it.  But, not this month.  I need to soothe my finances for a few months.  I have been spending like a blind fool, if for the right reasons, and buying the right things... food.  Inflation is only going to get worse.  Even if, somehow, repugnants actually stop enough of the cheating to allow democracy, for what that is worth, they won't do a single thing.  Go after Hunter?  Whatever.  How does that help anyone?  How about going after boards and CEO's of major corporations who are under the Chinese thumb, and damaging Americans for both their greed?  How about shutting down anti-American bureaucracies?  How about balancing the budget, ending the fed, or some other such things?  No?  I didn't think so.  Navel gazing, while they make fortunes backing corrupt corporations and bureaucracies.  I'm not voting in the midterms.  I'll wait for the only vote that may count.

Grumpy?  Not all that much.  Just practical.  Keeping cheering for your team.  Keep voting for your guys.  Keep hoping in one hand, shitting in the other, and keep being surprised at which one gets full faster.  Check.

Later.
