Salted coffee?

.
.
I've heard of the stuff.  Certain African countries... their high society?  Yep.  I never thought I'd consider it.  Then again, it is just for a short run thing, in an attempt to manage what all else is going wrong with the new diet, and on medication.  Coffee and cream, as usual.  But, sea salt too.  All I have is dehydrated ocean water salt, but Redman's is on the way, I ordered that this morning... the best price I could get by volume.

As to taste?  Different.  I am using, essentially, french pressed espresso.  And, a triple shot of the stuff.  So it's not weak coffee.  Have been using double, went triple what with the salt?  It's... okay.  Wouldn't be my first choice in liquid consumables, but with my hunger, even thirst, for salt, it isn't as bad as it might sound.  My body recognizes it's needs.

Still a bit achy and grumpy bodily.  Clumsy, to, to some degree.  Weak?  Aye.  But not absolutely crashing.  A few more painpills.  Because, yeah.  Not as bad as it has been, but bad enough and getting worse as the first dose wears off.  Everything has gotten a bit better.  But nothing is close to good.  I just have to suffer through, and do what all it takes to... get to the other side.  My guess?  If I was someone else, in my condition, on those meds, and trying this?  I'd be dead.

I am truly hoping this will finally see me to a better life.  Easier living, better living.  Though, maybe, there isn't a way out of what I am in.  Better?  Maybe, but not much.  I'll know in a few days or weeks.  Perhaps a few months?  I am patient, and willing to go that distance.  It took six months for me to tolerate sleeping on the floor, on mats.  I was in serious misery until... until I wasn't.  Same here?  Maybe.

Did sleeping on the floor pay off?  Yes, yes it did.  My back almost never hurts, unless I use it a very large amount for a few days.  Then?  It is supposed to hurt.  Though I could, if able, get it into shape so that it wouldn't hurt.  If I could get into some kind of physical good shape, and use my back more regularly.  We'll see about that, after all this?

It is continuing to rain or sprinkle out there.  Light rain to heavy sprinkle currently.  And the temp is staying right around 42 to 43 F out there.  Odd, but okay.  I'll take it.  Looks pretty.  If it weren't for leaves changing, falling, it could pass for spring.  Nice, really.  Why do fall and spring days remind me of women?  They just... do.

Food?  Not for a while.  I'm simply not hungry.  Or more, have nausea.  I will eat later.  Or... not.  I may skip food today.  Or force it, if I really feel that I should eat.  If I eat, it will be a steak out of the freezer.  Not thawed at all, just put on the warmed then heated griddle.

I called my mother, again, this morning.  Nope.  A few rings, then she turned it off.

What today?  I think just trying to stay awake until I can sleep, hopefully up until 15:00, give or take a few hours.  So very rough.  Later.
