Not bad.

Brushed.  Now to trim and shower.  Brought a few blankets down, to be washed.  Looking for another.  Will find it.  Cleared the litter boxes, been doing very well with those.  Then fed the little one.  She was well ready.  Set the water to heating, for tea.  The reset the r.o. system for another fresh carafe, after pouring a water for the day and then refilling the tea pot water heater.

While out there, I checked the temp, outside.  It is just enough above 32 F to be a thawed world, not frozen if you know what I mean.  And, yes, moisture is about.  I fetched the trash and recycling barrels.  In spite of no neighbor I could see, with recycling bin out, it was recycling day.  They picked it up, anyway.  All good.

Not a bad start.  Blood sugar is 141 fasting, again.  I don't know why it is so high?  that just doesn't make sense.  Oh well, it does what it does.  Though weekly average is down to 125 and biweekly to 122?  Very strange, but... I'll... keep at it.

I'd really like to find that other blanket.  Wool.  That'll give me two to wash on the gentle cycled, wools, with woolite.  Then hang to dry.  I found one cotton blanket, and will look for another?  I'm not sure I ordered the other type I was looking at.  Not sure if I should wash the cotton and down duvet I obtained.  Maybe just put it out to air?  Until those are cleaned and or aired out, dried, I won't put the new mattresses in place.  Though the cases for those haven't arrived, the fully cotton ones.  So I'm not in a huge rush.  Still, it will take a day or two for the wool blankets to dry.  The cotton can go right into the dryer.  So... even if it takes two runs, maybe four hours, five if it's being really fussy... and on a lower setting?

The 25th?  Tuesday?  Time flies?  Not really.  It feels like it's been six months since the end of last month.  Strangely?  For me?  Time take forever to pass.  Is that a good thing, or a bad thing?  Now that I am used to pain, it's not really a bad thing.  I get to enjoy the joys much more profoundly, and the sadnesses too.  Enjoy your life, the whole of it.  Explore your pains, so as to understand... not just yourself, but others.  So when they tell you it hurts, you may know it too.  Even if you can't offer direct empathy, you might be able to engage sympathy.  Perhaps to take some small portion of their burden.  It's a dark gift, but a treasured one.

The next time you see pain in someone's eyes?  Remember what I said.

Uhrm, so long is the pain isn't deserved.  Though, there can be some room for even sharing some of that, if nothing else to get them to know why.

Pleasant dreams, mostly.  Yes... soft, feminine, open, quiet, warm.

Annoying, too.  Hunger, need, want.  Powerful, weakening, things.

I'll finish my tea.  Then get into the shower.  I filled all but one trash bin, inside, with bags.  So... yeah.  I'll get to that too.  But, first, after tea and waking ceremonies, I'll find that last blanket.  It is still in the shipping bag.  Ugh.  Hmm, and may put up the other drying rack, so that I can hang both blankest indoors, should I wish it.  Though outside wouldn't be horrible.

Later.
