Up and going.

Well, not actually going.  Having done anything yet.  Did turn on the water to heat, and poured a goodly shot of kefir for my morning start.  Grabbed carrots and celery for a morning snack.  Next time I am out that way, I will check the litter boxes, make fatted coffee, and?  Maybe make something more filling to eat.

Not feeding Sassy, not yet.  Set a timer.

I did sweep where the dryer goes, and today am hoping to mop the area.  Then set the fan to dry the area before reinstalling it.  Though, after that, I would really like to clear the whole area, sweep up the rest of it, then mop over even that.  I think I can do that while still doing the last of the laundry.  

As well, a shower today.  Then, later, cleaning the bathroom like I, hopefully, have done with the laundry room.  I haven't kept up.  I won't likely catch up.  But... I... can try.  And I will try, when I can.  I think I am finally acclimated to winter.  The dark, as always, can be a little harsh.  The cold still sneaks in, even with the leaks managed.  But, I have learned to dress warmly, rightly, even differently from time to time.  And, as a treat, a day, or two, a week, I turn the heat up to 74/75.  Or take a road trip to town.  Being in a hot auto, for a while, works to warm the bones too.  So it won't be perfect, in deep winter.  But, it is better, much better.

While I haven't been terribly physically busy, I have been experimenting with things.  From kefir, which I have nearly perfected given it is a home processing thing, to getting and keeping my pee jugs clean with less use of bleach.  Can't... get away with out some, can learn to minimize.  A water closet up there would be nice, but would cost a fortune to install.  Even if I could do it myself.  Up lines (don't think I would need a pump, though.  A drain line.  A vent.  Complicated, more so than some think.  Anyway, for now, it is what it is.

Though, too, I have been doing home repairs.  While it's keeping me on my toes, it is crushing me.  Not that I mind, but it... slowly gets to me.  Having to work when I am not really ready or able.  A bit more to do, then maybe some rest.  Or, at least lighter duty.

Payday is Friday.  I think.  I'll want to get to the store, grab a few more meats.  I have been eating less, trying to store more than eat.  Though, that isn't working well, with meats being bitter of late.  Buying three packs of chicken, having to toss all of it because it tastes so old, and I fall behind.  Even pork has been rather sour of late.  And beef is simply far beyond my finances to buy.  Even with hamburger, I wait for sales unless I simply run out.  Then I just buy a few packages, hoping eventually, the prices will become sane.  We are becoming the USSR.  They make it look like it is there, but it is either trash food, or too expensive to consider.

Well... on to my day.  A bit of browsing, then gaming.  A fatted coffee, somewhere in there.  Then... to some work after I wake a bit better.  Down at 17:30, up at almost two.  I can live with that range.  Would like to sleep just a bit longer, but don't want to push or pull too much.  Scheduling is always a tight-rope walk for me.  Some boats just don't tolerate almost any rocking.

Good morning, day, still night?  Meh.  Be well, blessed, right.  Amen.
