A tough go, but...

.

A few more things.  First, I put the swimming trunks in the dryer and got that going.  Then, put the towels, and the rest of the whites in.  After doing that I ran the water in the sink, and checked down on the pipe patch.  Good.  Looks like it's fixed.  I'll do that every other day for a week.  Just... gotta make sure.  Tools will come back up when this is finished.

Vingegar tonic going down, as I write.  Kefir was finished.  Good, very good.  Blood sugar was tested.  It dropped thirteen points, to 197.  Might not be all that far below two hundred, but that is... a point of pride for me.  Eventually, I hope, a hundred will be an often broken number?  We'll see.  Quite pleased.

I am learning, with the watch.  While having the hourly alert, every hour on the hour, helps me keep some pace during the day.  It can be quite a disturbing thing to sense while asleep, then have to sort out.  Same with the alarm for 20:00, meant as an endcap for the day.  If I am asleep, or nearly, when that goes off, it... messes up everything.  Just after falling asleep is the worst time to be awaken.  I... fixed that, tonight.  Both of them.  Should sleep well.

I stripped down to shorts and undershirt, hoping it would help me cool off.  Not so much.  Even so, I am drinking my tonic, and will head to bed after.  I opened the windows, for air through the night.  Probably still a bit warm out there, but I won't be awake when it cools further.  I did turn two fans on upstairs.  That should help.  And the windows are open.  Cooler up there, just 70.  Even with the windows open all day, though with one of the fans going since around noon?  Give or take.

I also gave myself another hour for sleep, sliding the alarm to five instead of four.  Just for tonight.  Today was long, hard, and hot.  We'll see, tomorrow, if I can turn it back to four.  That is the plan.  As well, being out to get things, I am awake later than had been hoped.  So, yeah.

Tomorrow?  Finishing the laundry.  Perhaps starting on other laundry while I am at it.  A shower, hopefully.  Then setting up dishes afterwards?  Anything small enough for dishpans anyway.  And sorting the rest.  I am hoping to do one or two sessions... raking the lawn in portions.  Not pushing it, just... doing some parts, as I can.  But, as mentioned, without pushing too hard.  Maybe half the front yard, perhaps the whole.  The rest to be done in portions as the week goes.

As well, I have pulled a package of chicken hearts and one of the steaks to thaw.  I have burger too, thawed.  I might eat a bit more, if mostly just meat, tomorrow.  I did get the last ingredients for the more proper "perfect keto flour" recipe, and the 'perfect keto cake flour" recipe as well.  I have one together.  If it has a replacement component.  But, it is lacking arrowroot.  I'll get that in.  As well, I will set up some of the cake flour.  I may even make some keto bread, just fry it on the grill, in tallow... or butter.  Both are pretty good, honestly.

Oh, I want to brush my teeth.  Which I like to do at least an half hour after kefir, vinegar tonics, or such.  So, I best hurry up with the tonic, then set one last timer for the day.  I'll get it ready after I finish this, then hit it when I finish the tonic.  Then, brush the gums and teefuses, and on to bed.  Ah... bed.  I... deserve it tonight.

Some music until then... and memories.  Women.  Loverly.
