Awake?

.

Mostly, I guess.  Dreamed of inheriting a small keep.  In really good shape, modernized.  Nice.  Sold it.  The taxes alone were beyond my means.  But did spend a bit of time in it, while selling it.  What a dream.

It seems just a bit warm this morning.  Outside is 58, so it's not all that warm.  But... that is a warmer morning, compared to lately.  The house is 70/70, downstairs, open with ac off.  Upstairs it was 66/70, with ac on.  Strange.  It feels like someone was in here.

My lungs are spitting out bloody bubbles this morning.  Too much fluid yesterday, and maybe the day before.  It doesn't take long or much, really.  With the compression socks on, it doesn't go into my legs, so backs up into the lungs faster.  I... have something for that.  My brother says the mask isn't required where he goes, to that V.A.  Since it's fed, it's probably the same at all V.A.s, but I'll have to check Monday.  Though, even if the mask isn't allowed, they will probably have me on a six month to several year waiting period as punishment for not doing the mask and clot shots.  It's... how bureaucrats often do.  We'll see, that is if they have dropped the mandate here in the first place.

I wonder how many vets they got rid of in the process?  They don't care, more every day.  As long as they get their big pay, bennies, and retirement, they don't give a shit.  Republicans fight tooth and nail for the unions dems don't fight for.  Uniparty.  Shows.  Was a good time to let the V.A. die, and just get us reasonable medical coverage, with doctors and nurses who are liable if they cut the wrong foot off, take the wrong organ, or overdose us.  Yea, that would be nice.  As is, we are their unwilling guinea pigs.

Today?  A shower shortly.  Laundry set up.  I tore the bed down, letting the mattresses air, and will flip them around a bit before remaking this afternoon or tonight.  It's a rough one, lately.  The lungs being a bit flooded isn't helping this morning.  That may be why I feel so warm.  The body is struggling to get oxygen.

Still, it is a pretty day out there.  Hoping to get some work today.  Finish the dishes I started, a shower, a load of laundry, two?  Start a few more batches of dishes, and tear into boxes, putting what I do right into the suv for my next trip to town.  I think I can, if I go slowly, steadily.  We'll see.
