I reset the dishes I want to hand wash, and some others that if I can improve
enough I'll put into the dishwasher as a final load sometime yet
tonight. I put another load of laundry in to wash, while the first load
dries. As well, I am working on another pot, that I burned food
in. Beans, I think, a long time ago. I've been softening it up
every once in a while. I did another pan I burned beans in, though just
earlier tonight, with the brat. Some of the beans were good, anyway.
As well, I had a few jackets, which have been washed and were airdrying
(for... a while). I nose checked those. Good. Can go stale,
especially in my home. Working on that. But good, so I hung them
on the better covered rack. Bits and pieces of other things.
Dishes are... taking their time. The ice machine ran out of water, so I
filled it and it's still going? I should check. Two loads of ice
into the first ice bucket. Could take another load, load and a
half? Will see.
I am pretty sure I will get the dishes scrubbed yet tonight. And maybe
that extra pot I'm working on. As well as the water kettle. It had
gotten a lot of buildup, while using tap water. Water, vinegar, and
several times of letting her rip, and that stuff is beginning to come
off. I think I burned it, once. Lightly. *sigh*
Depending on how fast things wash and dry, I'd like to get another load
in. I have one pair of pseudo (for me) dressier cargoes, but need to
wash the one I have been using. And, more shirts and tshirts. Not
finding many shirts? Hmm... well? Dunno. I'll keep at
it. If I can.
Would like something to eat. Not sure what. Done with fatted
coffee. There are beef brats in there, but I don't want more brats for a
while. The pork jalapeno cheddar were good. Not sure I really
trust the beef. It's a huge pack, too. So, when I open it, I'll...
have to get on those. I had beef sticks earlier. No bueno.
Not more, for certain. I burned out on those, eating several handfuls of
three to six a time, several times a day, for a month? Was easy.
Not tasty, now almost despised. So... it's... a few, every few days,
now. Eggs! I have eight remaining. And they are really going
down well. I think I did mix up the last two batches, so the last ones I
boiled were more like four weeks, instead of my preferred two weeks,
old. Not again. I... need to put a note on those, date.
Don't want to write on the cartons, but could put a post-it on the top one.
Started overheating, so turned the furnace down. Had to turn that and
the heat in here up for a bit. Might track with blood sugar
variances? My body temperature, or perceived body heat? Don't
know. Well, and work, effort, will elevate that, of course. Ah...
iced water. Oh, and another contractor bag between a third and half
full... just... picking and grinning as I go.
Sure is taking the dishwasher, washing machine, and dryer a long time?
Then again, I have time. What else? Another load of laundry in,
and all of those through... dried, and hung. I am washing new underwear,
just a few. Will be getting more, soon. And getting rid of a lot
of old, worn, raggedy ones. New t-shirts and white tank undershirts...
for undershirts not houseware, usually. Black ones, for summer, indoors
anyway. But mostly shirts and pants.
It almost feels like things are coming together. Making sense.
Being started, and finished. Well... started. When the house is
emptied, the walls are painted, new trim and fixtures are in, the electrical
is decided and completed, the bathroom is apart and back together, new room
trim is in, carpeting has been replaced, and the flooring in the kitchen and
hallways/wash room are replaced, a new furnace and possibly central air is in,
and the siding is cleaned and painted, or replaced? Then... I'll... sort
of be there. Until then, this is just... getting ready to get
ready. If some of that I can't do myself. Painting, cleaning
siding and painting that (if I go that way), clearing the house (to a degree),
sorting things (ongoing), sure. But electrical, possibly natural gas
extensions and installations, central air, even carpeting? Not so much.
Oh... saw something I may... take a stab at. If I can figure out how to
get the plans. Says you can get them for free. I found the plans,
but didn't figure out how to pull them down to my computer. I don't want
to visit their site every time I want to look. Still, that is...
possible.
I really am thinking of attempting cabinetry. I'd just like to change out the lowers, but that just won't work. Either all, or nothing. And the lowers need replaces. Bleh. Will see. Plus, I'd just like to tinker. If I can get up, and going, I might be able to do some real woodworking. Tinker, if nothing else. Make a few mistakes, while learning to do something nice. Or fun? Or... difficult but fun, and nice? Meh. Will see. Later.
