A few things.

.
.
A shower.  Set up dishes to soak.  Roasted the chicken.

The chicken was really good, until it started getting cold.  A few cold bites absolutely destroyed my appetite.  Fine.  I'll part the rest of the bird, freeze the carcass, and put the parts in ziplocs.  It was good to have decent food.

Chicken isn't my favorite.  But, when it is a good bird, cooked in a timely fashion after thawing, and eaten in short order, it isn't a bad meal.  Save when it gets cold.  Though that is true of any protein, meat anyway.  I don't count vegetal proteins as actual food.  For humans.  Good for the animals they were made to feed, not humans.  If you aren't human, then... eat like animals.  I don't care.

I am beginning to cut things, as I try the tea as a diuretic.  Will see if it works.  Not certain.  Never can be sure, though, can we?  Still waiting for the other diuretic herbs for herbal teas to arrive, so I can switch them around.  This one doesn't taste terrible, at least.  A bit like... has an odor like grasses, slightly dried?  But tastes sort of like hay?  Between that and the better part of grasses, not that bitter taste some grass can have.  Yes, I have chomped grass, at least as a teen.  Something to do, lying on my back, talking to a girl, before... things... went wrong or right?  Or never happened more often than not.  I liked girls.  And green grass was the only type I really ever explored at the time.

Anyway, with the hibiscus, it makes a good enough tea.

I didn't start laundry.  But that is on the way.  Dishes will be sorted tomorrow, and the last of them in for a soak.  What will fit will be put in the washing machine.  Not sure if enough will fit to fill it, but that's fine.  I'll have enough more to soak, and don't mind letting the already soaked dishes dry while in there, waiting for the others.  A load or two to be hand washed, bigger bottles, a few bigger bowls?  I think that would be it.  And, laundry going.

I'm not doing the best.  So I didn't get to looking for the wallet.  But... will start that up tomorrow, it is hoped, as well.

Gaming some, cruising the internet, doing little bits and pieces as I am able.  Feeding Sassy, keeping up on her litter, and water bowl.  Plus... giving her attention when she wants it and sometimes when she'd rather hide in her little spaces.  But she has really been enjoying what I have been doing, both in the house, and with her little private spaces.  I just have to remember to change her blankets often.  She'll abandon the spaces after a week or two if I don't change the blankets.  I now have three or four, to switch out for her.

It's about bedtime.  I just have to put the chicken up, after finishing the carving.  Really was good chicken.  I was afraid it wouldn't come out.  This time I was careful not to overcook it, but the thermometer said I was on the money for minimum done temperature.  Always go by that.  And, for me, if I trust the bird, minimum is good.  I usually do turkeys, geese, and such, a bit more done.  Not too much, just a bit.  Getting good quality else fowl is difficult, without forking over an arm, and sometimes a leg.  So, chicken it usually is, or guinea fowl?  Some such, if I can find them, and trust them.

While four eggs a day has been good, I... wanted a bit more.  I got it.

Have a great night.  Sleep well.  Work well.  Good night.
