this is getting old

ok so it's 1:30...... here we meet again

it's 0 out
with wind chilly today i believe -10 or something

i am actually surprised at how warm ( all things considered)
the house has stayed so far

this year is 100% wood heat
no furnace at all
even last year we had the furnace kick on here and there
but we are still on the last tank of oil that was delivered july 2005

we have about half a tank left

and i am here stoking
i told bernie.....look for a big solid unsplit log
maybe i can get a bit more sleep

i have visions of a nap today

but i have to say
this stove is a miracle......it truly is

cause if the studio was just a bit more 'air tight'
just a bit
i wouldn't have to get up at all at night
but 16 windows and a door that all needed to be replace in 1962 does not make for the most air tight and energy efficient of homes

and i will confess that this cold snap
which i KNOW comes every year about this time
caught me unprepared for the most part!

although not entirely
as i put plastic on the cracked door
two weeks ago
i didn't know why but i did it
turns out..........it was time!

now in other news
i am very pleased to annouce that my fasting blood sugar is down to 87
from last months 91
the endo is beyond please

so am i

my goal is 80

i am having a problem with vitamin d
it's pretty low
but all in all she figures i am doing extremely well .....especially without taking meds for any of this


now......... the question before me is

is the stove ready for me to leave
cause seriously
right now
i can NOT see straight i am so tired

oye

this too like corn and diarrhea shall pass
