While we are still on a pause, things around the house are going along. I admit that days like today I didn’t feel like doing much. I did some, but I did not feel like much. I did get some rubbish out and I have emptied a mouse trap, and I am sure I did some other things, too. I, uh, ate? Yeah, I ate.
So, there is a lot of nothing unusual going on around here. I have sold a couple of goats a few days back, and now I am seeing pictures of one of them showing up in the neighborhood group and people asking whose it is. Well, it WAS mine. But no more. It’s the same goat, Ivy, that has come back here and broke into our pen to live with the other goats. Mind you, none of them break out. But this one somehow came back in. I think that the posting was made after we returned the goat to her owner.
Staying on my diet is a little more difficult than it has been. Not going to lie, there has been stress, and I think that is a big part of it. I also am experimenting with carbs, and seeing what I can expect on a return to normal. I have a problem. Well, like for example, I had a Marie Calendar’s chicken pot pie for supper tonight. It was awful. I thought I was craving the pie crust, and it tasted a bit like the box it came in, instead of a nice pastry. I have been off them carbs long enough to really get disgusted by the taste of them. There are a few things that do still taste normal to me, but that was not one of them!
Speaking of stress, my hands have been playing up on me again. The skin is splitting apart in various places along my fingers. It’s all the normal thing.
Speaking of splitting. I will need to split some more wood before too long. We definitely do not have enough firewood split for winter! (That’s the second time in three paragraphs I have emphasized the word not. Third.) I have some pretty dry logs though, and I should be okay. I need to figure out why my chainsaw chain keeps dulling out on me. It seems to be doing it without cause, and I need it to cut the logs down to rounds. Easy after that. Well, that’s easy, too, if I can sort it out.
Right. There is a bit of yammering for the books. There is more to come, but not yet.
