Up, way early.

.
.
I didn't get to bed  until 22:30, again?  Later than yesterday night.  But earlier than the local trend of 23:30, or later?  Something.  It's trending down, but not absolutely steadily.  Still, up by 3:30.  Alarms shut off, I am in the certain awake phase.  A good dream got me going.  I... have things to do, as well.

I'll get trash out before too long, recycling too, I think this week.  Feed Sassy.  Deal with her litter boxes, perhaps change one of them whole cloth.  Her water was changed yesterday, and still looks good.  Still, maybe later this afternoon... or tomorrow morning I will change that.  A shower might be good.

So, this week?  Or next?  I need to check about a loan.  To begin things in earnest.  Might have help before a loan goes through?  Probably.  When the loan goes through, the first thing will be to clear and reset the bathroom.  Perhaps get quotes on the electrical panel.  As, to be honest, I would like to get a tankless waterheater in that bathroom, for the shower and all.  That's beyond us, at the rating, I think.  Then again, so is the panel, so it would fit.

But, until then, we can work at just emptying out the place.  Can just toss and tow, with a truck as is, for the moment.  But will need a dumpster of some sort, soon.  After some basics, the deal will be to make a plan as to what to do, what can be afforded, what would improve value more than not.  A basic plan.

Not just what to do, what to do first.  Anything outdoors will be wanted to be done while it is still warm.  Painting, indoors, can be done through the winter.  I don't want to have him do cleaning.  He is wasted on that.  Not that he can't, but he has superior technical skills and breaking and fixing things.  Once the house is mostly emptied, I will have someone come in to clean, keep things up.  If I can't.

If it really gets going, I may have two dumpsters here, for a short bit.  If I can clear that much, that fast.  I might need some help with that, but I'd like to do a lot of it myself.  Some things I really do want to keep, even if to give away.  Like my camping gear.  Yeah.  Though some things will just go.  Old coats, old clothes, things that don't fit I have held onto, and just... stupid stuff.

Excited to get going.

Oh, and blood sugar, this morning, is 81 fasting!  Now that is more like it.  I... have a suspicion why.  I have been doing the right things, but have been being sandbagged.  Never mind, but fresh sweetener has... taken care of the sabotage.  I tested, after the tea, last night.  It was 82, so dropped a point after tea (no sweeteners, or cream, albeit).  The weekly, biweekly, monthly, and ninety day averages are: 105, 114, 112, and 150.

Weight is 220.6.  But... the weight isn't the point.  My whole program, with carnivore, is to managed diabetes, not lose weight.  The weight loss has just been a side, fringe, one-off, effect, or bonus.  So... I've... sort of give up on that, for now.  If I get diabetes to plainly well below 100, fasting, every day, for a few months, I'll... begin seeing about weight.

To deal with weight, I will have to eat more.  To eat more, I will have to add some things back.  I can't eat enough meat a day.  Will have to add lettuce, if planning on that anyway.  And, maybe a few other veggies.  No fruits, no nuts, though possibly other forms of fats.  I'd like to work up a couple of batches of ghee, for example.  Possibly buy local tallow, or the fats and try to jar some of my own.

I did use electrolyte powder in that, to see how it would work.  That was spectacular, to be honest.  It was a hibiscus, mint, and various other floral herbals, plus electrolytes.  And piping hot.  I'm telling you, that was one of my best hot concoctions I've made.  

Yes.  Plans, goals, hopes.  I am awake for them.  It's... time to get going.

Oh, it is 73 in the main upstairs, 76 near me?  With windows open and a fan going.  Down here it is 74 up front, 73 in the main, and 53 outdoors though that may drop a bit... or a lot.  Who knows.  A warmer evening?  Strange, but good enough.

On to... some looking, if little is probably up for the day.  Then to gaming a bit.  I won't eat until later.  Same with a shower.  No fatted coffee until later, either.  Between seven and ten, I'll get started on some of those things.  Good morning.  Hop to it!  I'm... thinking about it.  Later.
