Awake, at two.

.

I ended up being awake until 18:48 or something crazy.  Sleep was pretty good, other than being cold?  I used the electric blanket twice.  Usually only ever turning it on for a few hours.  I just woke up absolutely frigid.  Ah, it was 50 up there.  Near me.  The coldest nights, this year, so far, that I have seen, have been 54, usually closer to 57.  If I forget to shunt the furnace, it can get to 61.  So, yes.

Cold outside?  I checked after feeding Sassy and clearing her litter boxes.  Baby, it is cold out there.  Like, as in 2 below in standing air.  Though, checking around the house, there is a slight steady breeze out in the open.  Enough for a wind chill, in the unprotected areas?  I'd say yes.  And it is a colder wind than the standing air.  Just enough extra bite that you'd know it.

Coffee is being brewed.  Sassy is over near the vent.  As she gets older, she loves the heat coming on in the morning.  Her own little air sauna.  Me?  I have those hand warmers.  When my body gets cold, it just doesn't warm well these days.  I may bring the smaller water bottles down, and use them for me feet, on a stool.  I still haven't tried the really big water bottle, upstairs, because I am always so tired when I am going to bed!  Hmm.  Maybe do it a few hours in advance.  I just think it might get cold by then.  But, no, it should last eight hours, plus or minus a few?

Blood sugar is 21 points lower, at 148, than yesterday morning.  Very good.  If very bad.  Given what I ate, and the amount, it's... what could be expected.  It amazes me, how many people are eating these things day in and day out, and yet can't see diabetes coming.  At some point, the body just gives up.  Or fails.  It is a miraculous contraption.  Can save you from infections, heal your wounds, handle poison even sometimes, and do wondrous things.  But like any fine tool, left to the elements, allowed to rust and decay, poorly fed, poorly rested, and else?  It... fails.

Take care of your flesh as if seeing your grandchildren matters.  It may not to you, currently.  It will to the limping, one legged, blind, older self, scraping through with diabetes, bad heart, and whatever else?  Now, to be fair, mine wasn't a lack of care.  It was the weaponization of medical for greed.  I do blame vaccinations, which are just as unsafe, and ineffective, as the 'vax'.  Well, and then being abandoned by the Navy for the failure of their "medicine".  They hid these things, rather than dealing with them, when they could.  Still, I'm telling you from a set of experience.  Don't wait until your body is falling apart to try to do something about it.  The best you will do is... limp through, rather than thrive until you die.  Oh, and stay away from doctors.  If they aren't ignorant, they are in on fleecing you by keeping you sick.  Greens fees aren't going to pay themselves.

Coffee should be ready.  Later.
