A late wake.

.
.
I couldn't get down until around 21:00.  So tired, but moving so slowly by that time.  I had brushed my teeth, fed Sassy, cleared litter...  I was ready by 19:30?  I... just... couldn't get to bed.  The warmth?  That might have been part of it, but it really wasn't all that warm.

It had juggled the numbers.  From 72, to 68, back to 72, then, for a while 74 and even 75 before beginning to cool for the day.  Inside was a good bit cooler.  I had closed up when it hit 72 that first time.  It stayed between 68 and 70, the latter being upstairs, as highs.  Maybe it was the cool?  Hard to be certain.

I did put the last batch of laundry into the dryer.  Things which couldn't go out on the line.  I had a final vinegar tonic.  All good.  But I just couldn't get to sleep!  Almost a little, short form, of insomnia.  Because of that, I reset the alarm to 7:00.  I wanted, and needed, sleep.  Especially after the disaster of a sleep the night before.

As it turns out, and as I was hoping, I awake well before the alarm.  I started waking at 6:15, finished and got up and out at 6:30.  Sassy was fed first thing.  Or she fusses.  Blood sugar was checked.  It is 196 fasting, with a 214 weekly average, 233 two week average (if I don't think I have been testing for a full two weeks yet, but it gives... trend).  Better, but had hoped it would be better still.  Below two hundred, especially for fasting, at the moment, is very good.  The trend is lightly down, and continuing.  But it has started to drag.

It's already eight.  Not sure about raking though.  Overcast.  Wind?  I didn't sense any.  Rain?  Could happen at any time, if I have some doubts about it.  Who knows though.  A shower would be good.  Then setting up dishes and getting the swim trunks in the duffles (if they are well and truly dry).  Then, grabbing the swim towels, and other equipment and getting those in.  Will be trying on trunks before long.

If I can make it to mass today, I will.  Plan on it, so as to also return some things.  Tired.  But better than yesterday.  But so dark, that isn't helping.  Water for coffee is heating.  That might help.  While darker, it was 50 this morning.  Yesterday, at 36, it was... tight.  Indoors it is running about 66, compared to 61~62 yesterday.  Better, but still... a bit tight.  I just don't want to run the furnace.  Yes, coffee, and a shower.

Oh, just... a thought.  Especially for those who have called me a pussy.

*grins*  Okay.
