Damn I hate being old and infirm. Muscled thru yesterday only to suddenly lose all my strength last night while trying to put stuff away. My bones all disappeared and I crashed. I managed to get to the bed without Boone’s help because he was out doing chores with Fen and Randy.
Pain today is pretty overwhelming, but I fed sourdough for making bread tomorrow and have a bunch of meat thawing. Tomorrow is going to be challenging. Hopefully I will manage to get it all done.
I dream about the things I used to do and still want so badly to do. Ride, garden, clean my damn house, drive the 15+ hours to see my friends and family…have my milk cow and all the amazing things I used to make and enjoy from her milk and incredible cream. I miss all of it. It was a lot easier to be alone when I could stay busy. These days, I mostly just hurt and dream.
End of whine session.

Managed to get some leaf fat so I’ll render tallow tomorrow. Got disaster of a kitchen cleaned and back in order after 2 days of hurting too much to do anything but feed him, canned some beef, got two loaves of sourdough cold proofing in other fridge and pot roast in the oven for tonight…then cleaned kitchen again. Boone has been too busy to pay me any attention so I’m just hanging out by myself, thinkin’ about my Heathen.
He would have been 10 this week.
