Well…up and moving at 4:30 today and there was no point to try to get back to sleep…and I even stayed up til 10:30 so there may be a nap in my future if I can even do naps anymore…it’s raining again this morning but it will end before noon so I may be going out for a ride after I make the pork shoulder in the instant pot…I do need to hit the library after it opens at 9 and I have one more book to finish before that…or not, I guess we’ll see…didn’t get a lot done yesterday and cooking will be the only chore for today…going to make a rub to apply before I brown the meat and then it ‘s under pressure for 90 minutes and that will give me time to steam the carrots and make mashed potatoes and gravy…feel okay this morning after the 5th day of no cocktails and I think I’ve gotten over the hump so I’ll be able to make that the new normal and it feels okay…still feel a bit worn out but that could be from not eating enough with only a bagel early and a couple of slices of ham for lunch…but I’ll fix that today…need to remember that I have calories to play with with not drinking…I did get a nice outdoor ride in yesterday and I plan on that for today, too…but first I want to have coffee and read a bit…more later…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
