Late.

.
.
Late to bed, late waking.  Down sometime after six.  How much later is anyone's guess.  After six could be nine, but is more likely not later than eight?  Something.  Up at 16:30, though, probably.  Mostly.  Give or take an half hour?  Or hour.  Ugh.  Well, Give to the earlier, it is just going on 17:00, and I know I have been up at least an half hour.

Sleep was very good.  I had the ac on.  It was 73, near me.  Didn't check the other thermometer up there this morning.  It only got down to 64, but it was a cooler 64 than the 58 degree night not long ago, at least when the wind was howling through.  Oh, that was quite pleasant.  I did have the windows and all open for a goodly part of the night, but knowing I would be trying to sleep through the furnace of the day I closed everything down before going to bed.

While I turned the ac on upstairs, I didn't downstairs.  Being that I wouldn't be up until it had already started cooling?  Probably.  It is 84 outside.  I am sure it hit 88, maybe 90?  It's... summer, again, or finally.  This is more like normal August weather.  Maybe even a bit warmer?  No, depends on the year.  Sub90s seems to be fairly normal.  Can be cooler, or hotter.

Blood sugar is 179.  Not... quite fasting?  I meant to test it before getting into the kefir, but have been sipping on it for ten minutes.  I hate being a sleepy head.  Anyway, not sure how fast of a blood sugar response there is.  Still, it's lower than the 192 of yesterday and 224 from the day before.  It's coming down.  I'd like to think it was closer to 165, or even 170, but I can't be certain.

Today?  Well, I started in on the dishes, finally.  I'm giving them a second soapy soak, and hope to finish them in a few hours.  Then get a shower.  After the shower, run a load of whites.  Then?  Not much, until later.  Trash out.  Recycling was last week, but I can get a few bags to the barrel, for next week.  For work, that will probably be that.

Although, I would like to set up my clothing rack.  If I like it, I may buy another.  Get hangers for it.  And set up the air-tight clothing bags, see if I like those, if there are enough of those.  I had thought to use those for all my clothes, but am now thinking of just using them for "good" clothing.  Cloths to be work to town.  House wears can just be hung, and maybe just in one of the closets.

When I get that set up, I'd like, also, to get my iron and ironing board set up near it.  And keep some items pressed.  Though, too, some shirts I prefer to run through the dry cleaners.  My official dress clothing.  Sunday go to meeting stuff.  Slacks, long sleeve button downs, suit coat, such...  Trying to... organize, a bit better, for when I can get back to church.  And... maybe other things.  It'll happen, again... as it cools.

My body simply has limits.  Everything I do is only a maybe, and an eventuality.  That's just how it goes when you are mostly dead, with no real reprieve in any near or certainly distant future.  Meds went down.  Adding potassium back in.  Hadn't... been doing that, but hadn't been taking daily water pills, just when the lungs were flooding with blood.  Now I'm on a daily dose, so... yeah.  Though I probably should have been taking some potassium, so...  Still, I was just making it up as I went along.

I have my medicine dispensers rounded up.  I should go through, clear them.  For when medicine arrives.  It's said to be on the way.  I think they even sent a tracking number.  Yes, I'll be ready.  Have been taking vitamins, will be adding other minerals... zinc, magnesium, and some others.  Helps with cramping, too.  When I take a lot of the water pill?  Even my hands, especially thumbs, can cramp... believe it or else.  They cramp so hard they deform without forcing them back into shape.  I... lead such an... interesting life.

Right.  On with... something.  A bit of gaming first?  Or not.  Later.
