Very nice, surprisingly.

.

Even an hour or two ago it had started to cool.  It was down to 77~78.  Down to 76 now.  The highest I saw it was 82.  I'm pretty sure that was about the high.  Very odd that it is cooling already, this early.  It is partly cloudy, but more in the five to ten percent range, at a rough guess, at any given time I have looked out.  Very small islands of fairly solid clouds... more summer fun stuff than storm stuff.  So, that isn't doing it.  May still be cool and cold weather, from the hurricane, drifting in?  Hard to know, with any absolute certainty.  I ignore weathermen.  What little they know is undone by being bought out or blackmailed into lying to us.

I did turn the ac on, upstairs and down, preparing for what I thought would be a terribly hot day.  I think I can shut them off, for now.  Not yet time to open up, one thing at a time.  I'll leave some fans going, but will turn a few of those off too.  Strangely, I am feeling cold.  The downstairs, main, is running at 72.  Right near the computer it is 77?  But it... feels cold!  Let me check blood sugar... 186?  It's nearly a fifty point drop... that might be enough to do it.  Lower blood sugar makes me a cold body, strangely.  Until I get used to it, especially after a major jump.  And, yesterday's consumptions made, probably, a massive jump.  The day after was 224, I would guess, in the middle of yesterday, or nearing the end, during the last soda, I was probably in the 350 to 400 range.  Yes... it does that.

Got to admit, I think my doctor was surprised... that first I am alive still, and that I made it in.  I am... notoriously notorious for missing.  But this visit was vital.  I am running out of medicine, and the blood in the lung thing, and some other issues... almost seems important.  I... have been given life.  A painful life.  A brutal, brutish, ugly life.  But... a life.  And, God said, to my mind, that it is a responsibility.  So, I will tend it as I may.  And, with His hand guiding, allowing, providing, I... do... well?  Within some serious givens.  Something.  But, yes, I... think he was... between surprised and amazed.  Especially with my haircut.  I look... younger, healthier, than last he saw me.  

Reminds me, I... need to find a reasonably priced, good, place to get a haircut.  Then get in twice a month.  Yes.  Or, maybe, just buzz it off?  Dunno, thinking.

I'll see what coffee and kefir for a day or two will do for that.  I had hoped it would have dropped more, but... like I said, that is fifty down, from a hundred and twenty five to a hundred and seventy fivish point drop from yesterday.  Not... horrible.  I hope for a lot, I suppose.

Kefir and coffee.  And checking the kefir that is brewing.  I love smelling it, morning and night.  As it ferments, it changes.  I suppose people who make cheese enjoy olfactory testing as well.  It's... a little treat, that holds one over until the product is finished.

Oh, I did contact the guy from the church and the VFW.  My record isn't a problem.  They just need solid proof that I was on a sub.  I've not been able to find it, but it should be here, somewhere, close at hand.  I just let him know I am still interested, just a bit laid up... from the cold spring, then the heat of the summer.  But, I... am... still alive, around, and... interested.  I just have to look, when able.  Yes, I... do qualify, and am allowed.  So... there is that.  I will join.  It's... time.  We all have to go home, someday.  Or... back to it.  If we can, if we are one of them, if we should.

It is time.  I should, I think.  I just... have to... wake up.  Later.
