The dishwasher finished. Got everything put up and/or away. Some
things didn't have a place, so I created one, if mobile. A box was
found, a small one, for the lid bands on my canning jars. Most of which
are being used for drinking coffee or tea, making kefir, and in time making
sauerkraut. I'd like to experiment with small batches. Still, I
want to keep the bands. The popper lids not so much. Those things,
from shipping, usually don't work. I have fresh ones of those, of both
the metal and "reusable" plastics. Those don't have a good
reputation. Still... I... have lids. So keeping the bands would be
good, in a pinch.
As well, I got to the line. The sheet was dry, not so much the
duvet. Which is fine. It has pockets of down, so will take a
bit. Hmm, when I finish this I will give the laundry a final spin, see
about any dishes left to finish rinsing, see about folding some clothes.
That should be it for a bit. Then return to gaming.
I am hoping to finish laundry. Get everything folded. Finish what
dishes are soaking, so I can get a shower in tonight or in the morning.
Vacuum in the master bedroom, at least once with the shop vac. Perhaps
pull the new house vacuum out and hit the area with that. Then move the
racks back in, and hit the other areas. If that gets done, I'll stop
with that, there, for now. But, soon, hope to hit the living room with
the shop vac, then do with the house vac. Or some such.
And, a final bit of work will be to break down more boxes. But, too, go
deeper in this room. Clearing, moving a cart that is in here, opening it
up. It's not a perfect run, but I am generally getting well ahead, and
keeping it better. Then taking some time off, but getting back to it
before it closes off, again, in any spot, too much. Making real
progress. And maintaining. So each round is a real
improvement. This room always looks a little rougher, though, because
all boxes that arrive here are put here, with packing, to be broken down,
sorted, and such. Though there is more here that, once removed, will
make that much more organized even so.
Yes. I may be back to it. I am back on some medicines. Just
took the night medicine, a single carvedilol. I take the rest in the
morning. Will check my blood pressure when the alarm says to check the
duvet, in an hour or so.
Oh... have been thinking about trying crockpot cooking. More for roasts,
chuck. Though, as well, sorting out what vegetables I can eat. If,
too, I will stay on the thing, since I will be home while it cooks. I
won't let it go to complete mush, and can add vegetables when it is the right
time. Checking the temperature of meat, and texture of vegetables, to
pull whatever when it's optimum for that.
I watched a vid, on whether it was a good thing to have, or if the instapot
would work just as well. For some things yes, for some things no, seems
to be mostly what I am seeing, hearing. Fair enough. Anyway. this
woman talked about the items available. I... liked the features on the
crockpot she discussed, and seemed to like the most. I have some, but
probably planer ones?
Anyway, I went and checked my crockpots. I have a 6, 4, and 2 quart
crockpot (the brand). Unopened, never used. And a (probably) 6
quart hamilton beach which was out and sitting on one of my shelves.
Dusty thing, can fix that. Anyway. But, it turns out, I have the
one she seems to like. I may get the carrier for it, and for the
instapot. Handy to have.
Well, saved me a purchase, if I had thought that was necessary. The
little one might be good for a cheese dip, or such. Anyway, had to
laugh. The things I have... but never ended up using? Meh.
Well, on to some folding, dishes, and did reset the laundry to a final spin in the dryer while checking the crockpots. Then gaming, and... what else I can do. I closed the downstairs up. But the fresh air was wonderful. Heat up, though, it got just a bit chilly. Still, a great day, so far. Later.
