Up and at it.

Not sure what all I said I would get done, before bedtime last night?  But, I did get the tubs of dishes out, and without spilling.  So, this morning, I swept the tub clean(ish).  Got as much out as was possible.  Now it is soaking in hot water and bleach... hopefully to be spick and spanned before too long.

Then a shower, and dishes back in, probably given a refresh, then set to soak just a bit.  Which means I need to clear and clean the freezertop.  If I can get all that done by noon, perhaps I can get to grocery shopping.  And return some things.  Today or tomorrow.  Tomali?  Who knows.  Goofing can be fun, even if no one understands.  Heck... that might be half the fun.  Unfortunately, I am not that clever, by half?  Maybe.

Slept well.  Had to turn the electric blanket on for a bit though.  It was 40 up there.  I need to remember to open the door to the upstairs an hour or two ahead of time.  I think I could have done without the electric blanket, but it would have been a rougher start to sleep, and a lot of rolling and adjusting blankets to avoid cold spots.

It has warmed, sort of.  It is zero outside, at the moment.  It... feels better.  Seriously.  When zero feels good, you... know it's been cold.

Still, it's deep winter, and I am up and going.  I am sleeping between eleven and twelve hours, for this last week?  Give or take.  After going through some tumbling of two or three sleep cycles a day, when I was pushing harder to get to things.  Fair enough.  Makes sense, at least to me.

This month, other than salad, I will mostly be buying meat.  I won't quite call it a pure carnivore diet, just yet.  But I am definitely heading that way.  Well, and more cultured buttermilk.  Okay, so storebought can sometimes top raw dairy.  It... just does.  Butter is on the list as well, if I can find a good sale.  If it is just medium or standard, I'll just buy a few pounds to get through.  Waiting for an half off sale, to stock up for making ghee.  Half pint jars of it, perhaps six or eight?  I may see what they have for lard and tallow though too.  

They seem to either add preservatives, hydrogenate it, or charge so much it's unaffordable.  At amazon.  Will check the local stores.  Sometimes they really do offer things less expensively.  With amazon, shipping weight really has started to cost/matter.  It had to happen, eventually.  I may see about carbonated water too.  Anything that has some heft to it has a hidden surcharge on amazon.  Fair enough, with fuel costs.  Lets see if stores pick up that slack and ship in bulk enough to cut that.  If they just charge what amazon charges... shouldn't that be illegal?  It's called price fixing.  I'll bet, if that was looked into by bureaucrats who actually do their job, that would... change.  Just a shot over the bow, to clear up... improprieties.

Well... on to reviewing the web.  Then... gaming a bit.  Then... more, I hope.  Good morning and day.

Ah.  Someone... remembers.  I think... someone understands, or understood this.  Strange how mirrors, or the idea of them, work.  To see one's place in the description of the cosmos, by another?  I... am sure he saw.  He saw others, as well.  Bothered?  Yes, and of course no.  Because he... knows better?  I do grin.  Not sure he does.  Consternation.  Knows better.  And, yet, there is... always... that... doubt.
