Up to after 20:00.

How much after?  I think just after.  But, as I realize it is bedtime, and begin... heading that way?  Time can sometimes slow down a lot.  So that what seems like a few minutes can be even a few hours.  Though, conversely, a few minutes too can seem as a few hours.  My ability to track time becomes absolutely confounded.  Though, I am pretty sure I went to bed between minutes before and a quarter after.

I didn't even hear the two alarm.  When I heard the alarm, I thought it was the two.  Nope, the four.  Which shocked me awake more than enticed me to begin getting up.  It was 54 up there, with the door open.  Still, that was fine, by me.  I did use the electric blanket to start the night.  But slept well and moderately warmly enough.  While not toasty, I never felt chilled.  Which... is enough.

It is 16 F out there this morning.  The furnace has been turned up.  The front room too is being warmed.  Though, what I have found is to get the heat on, and going.  But once this front room is warm, usually hitting 80 no matter what I set the heater to, by sometime between noon and fourteen hundred, or so, depending on how cold the world is?  Then I turn it off, coasting through the rest of the day.  It works well.  And, the furnace I try to remember to shut down by, say, sixteen hundred (if waking between two and four, all give or take).

While not perfectly comfortable, always a bit between too cold and too hot, this system is finally seeing me to a more sane and healthy comfort zone, or set of them.  I had hoped being more comfortable would help with function.  That is still somewhat limited.  It is the dark, and to some degree the cold.  Working on it, if more in the mind.

Staying on meds.  I best order more.  Added vitamins, minerals, and such back in.  The ones I see as helpful, or even necessary.  Is it working?  I should begin checking blood pressure.  I have been, again, testing new foods.  Not... successfully, according to blood sugar reads.  Just... some final things I wanted to see about.

I need to figure out the charcoal chimney process, and get that going.  And... get steaks back in stock.  I now have wrapping paper, so can get right to it.  Getting the steaks out, cut, and put up right away.  Now I just need to order in, say, ten two inch top sirloins, and about that many ribeye, new york strip, porterhouse, or whichever is going for the better price.  If... understanding if it is bone in, it's at a double premium.  I'm looking for meat, not specialty.  Though, a few bone in ribeyes, t-bones, or porterhouses, are... nice for an occasional treat.  Bone in ribs, but they went crazy with the price on those.  Spending more than whole ribeye, doubly possibly or more, by meat mass.  So... no.

Would like coffee, or tea.  Think I'll skip for a few days though.  Just water.

One of the things I tried was a keto chocolate.  *sigh*  Two problems.  First?  I don't really like it.  Second?  Just as addictive, anyway, as regular chocolate.  I had full intentions of just eating one, or two, pieces a day.  Which should have been enough for... sixteen to thirty two days.  Nope.  Gone.  Well, will be after I eat the last four, after... already eating four more earlier.  So... no.  I... can't have them in the house.  Maybe not the jellies, either.  Though I'm holding judgement on those.  As with the bread.  Which... I need to rebag into four slice packs, or it is too difficult to sort and thaw from a whole loaf.

Well... on to... more.  Later.
