I pushed through the day. Wanting to sleep early, even around noon. I so wanted to sleep. But, no, as with the last four or five days, I have pushed into the early afternoon. I made it to at least 15:30? I know I made it to 15:00, and would bet money I made it another half hour. It... always takes me a while to finally get up there, and lay down, even when... I see I made it then decide to do so. Perhaps as late as 17:00, if I have doubts about that.
In I went. Easily, comfortably. Then I woke. *snap* Nothing... startled me. I didn't have to go the bathroom. It wasn't a sound, or sense, no warning or alert. But, I was awake. I groused for a clock, or my watch. 18:30~19:00, or so. Numbers weren't sticking, just... roughly in there, though certainly within that. Awake, but why?
I tried to just go on back to bed. Nope. I am awake and that is all. So... here I am.
My foot hurt, a bit. But the wrong foot? The one that usually doesn't hurt. Not terribly. But it felt swollen? But it is still thin, no fluid buildup, by the look of things. Though it doesn't always appear as such. The pain is gone, already. It wasn't a terrible pain, just a grudging one.
I checked blood sugar, since awake. At 108, it's... gooder. Not optimal, even that, not quite yet. Though considering it isn't a fasting draw, it's probably in the very good category.
I remember when I was going to start walking. Did, start. Two days? Then the foot hurt again, so that I couldn't. Then something else... too cold for even me, for a bit? Then it snowed. The road sides are now too snowy, icy, right to the edge. Not... going to happen quite yet. But it is still on the mind. I did walk, even when the foot was hurting. Until it got too bad for me to walk. Though, now I have walking sticks ready. All I need is for the road sides to clear. Yes, it's not been forgotten. The availability, one way or another, simply evaporated.
I had forgotten to feed Sassy her last few meals, so she'll get that. If I can't sleep soon, she'll be fed extra, as if it were a new day.
My feet are cold? Or have that feel. From within. From the outside they feel just fine. When the body doesn't work correctly, we are left with strange sensations. I know I took medicines today, and else. I have eaten, some, too. If very lightly. Would like the rest of the steak, but just don't think I can quite handle that much food.
I missed an appointment with my gp, a np actually. But, yeah. The blood test was missed, for snow. So I canceled the appointment until that could be reset. They... are just going with it, and having me do a blood test on the day. Okay. Not sure it helps. But it will keep me in medicine. As much as that helps?
I'd like to do something this evening, since I am awake. Not sure I can get to anything. But... who ever knows. A shower. Some laundry... bedding mostly, new bedding. If I can get a shower, more of the dishes in to a soak. Nearing an end to the old stuff. Ugh.
Ah! I saw that my mother had called, so called her back. It's... been quite a while. This time she noticed, and decided to answer herself. I can't believe she asked me about politics first thing. Me? I told her the truth. That I am pleased as punch. If I thought he would do any of what he is doing, I would actually have voted for him. Thought it would be bluster, like last time. She wasn't happy with that, but she DID ask. Her and my brother are both butthurt about that. I'm... glad. On that account.
She went through illness. She is mostly better. Hitting 83, and going. What else can you say. I was telling her, that as tough as life gets, it's still good to be here. And she agreed. Oh, I know, she'd like to see people more, if only to be disagreeable. :p With my brother, it isn't politics. She... has problems with everyone. It's... what women do! :) Oh well. We talked. So be it.
Perhaps a few cans of veggies, and butter? It's been a while. It's easy. The steak with that, maybe? Don't know, may try, unless I do the folding like a cheap suit trick? Later.
