Oh, ouch.

It's cold out there, boys and girls.  I am dressed for a blizzard.  Clear as a bell, cold as a Scandinavian belle.  Nice.  It's 4 (F, -16 C) out there.  Sort of surprised me.  Then again, now I understand why I still feel cool, with electric heated pants on, as well as layers and else.  That sort of cold seeps in.  If you don't live in winter places, or don't have the money to heat a place as you would like, you just don't understand.

The cold gets into what I call the corners of the house.  You can't escape it.  Oh, I... have my furnace set to 74.  It doesn't matter.  Though, this front room isn't heated, so...  It gets some, from the rest of the house.  But not that much.  And, when it is very cold out, it's... rather cool in here.

Anyway, so, yes.  Now that makes sense.  That, I think, is as cold as I have seen it.  It may have been colder.  I... just don't remember, or haven't read a lower temp.

Sassy has been fed twice.  I'll get her litter wrangled clean shortly.  Water?  I might as well freshen that.  I think I did so yesterday.  Sometimes I do it every day, or every other, or even every third.  

I am sort of hungry?  I want to eat?  I don't know.  I could eat, and that might be how I go on things.  Perhaps pork center chops?  Are any thawed?  If not, I'll do burger, just as crumble.  Adding cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, butter, and?  Oh, bone broth.  Just enough to make a good gravy.  A few ounces of each is all, or less.  Almost microdosing, of the right kind.  I am really starting to enjoy the gravy.  Minus flour, or other carbs.

And, I am beginning to be able to eat a bit better.  That three pounds of burger, with half a pound of gravy?  Will last a week.  Though I am becoming able to eat a whole steak at a sitting.  It's nice too.  Even if I gain some weight back.  I am not eating to lose weight, I just had no choice.  Down forty five pounds in, what, two months... one and a half, one month? ... if through Thanksgiving and Christmas.  I started a week before Thanksgiving, so... just over eight weeks, two days over.  There are people who have been doing keto/carnivore for a year and only just lost that much weight?

I have to guess they were doing a whole lot of cheating.  Because I have been doing some occasional cheating, and am still killing it, on weight loss.  I have serious doubts about a lot of y.t.'ers.  Full of shit.  More, since I am very unable to be active, work out, or even do regular days.  I am as far from functional as one gets, and still lose a lot of weight, on an imperfect carnivore diet.  

Well...  I think I'll have a bit of bone broth and sour cream.  Just to add a little more heat to my body.  Then game a bit, with a plan to make burger and carnivore gravy.  Oh, and with hot spices.  I really have been enjoying some heat to my food, lately.  Especially in the bone broth pseudo soup!  Oh, you know, besides sour cream?  Some cheddar, parmesan, mozzarella, other, or some mix of cheese(s) would really add to that.  While it is very good, tasty as mana, a delight as a cuppa, it... could use some thickening.

Oh... I... have been praying for the dead, of late.  I forgot Michael, Bane, and some others.  I'll add them.  I'm... running a memorial.  Ah, should add Grandpa Fred, and Gramma too.  Oh, one uncle I forgot.  Always... more.  Even friends, whose names have been forgotten, from the service.  So many.  I only bring it up to offer you the consideration.  A little memorial, to all those who have died, who I might have occasion to remember.  Love, hate, friend, enemy?  I... we are beyond that.  Just a thought I thought to share.

Hmm, yes... some hot and spicy bone broth, with cheese and sour cream.  In a BIG cup.  Just a mug, really, but...  Good morning and day.  Later.
