Wet one, 3Dathon, Open wound, Fast

Despite having stitches still in my head I was having the urge play pickleball however the weather handled that for me with rain hanging around both Saturday and Sunday morning. I instead filled my day with a lot of tasks inside the house, mostly. I did another culling of my closets, filling two kitchen trash bags with clothing I donated to Goodwill. I have more in the house I need to reevaluate in regards to my need of it. Even though I slashed the amount of stuff I have dramatically when I moved, there is still more pruning that can be done. I always feel better once doing so.

I did a lot of 3D printing as well over the weekend as well as one fix where I had to disassemble the AMS on one of the printers to get a broken piece of filament out. Below are the shorts I made about the projects/work.

This morning I got the stitches removed from my head. This wound has not healed ideally as there is a section where it still looks yellow/gross, perhaps because of just how big the area was which was closed. The office nurse took a sample of the questionable area to have it tested so they can advise me how to proceed however they still pulled the stitches. This is the first time I have treated one of these wounds with only vaseline which is what the doctor recommended. I always have used Neosporin in the past to promote healing. The fact that I did not do that this time and the wound is still messy makes me likely to not deviate from my Neosporin use in the future. I plan to continue treating the stitch free scar with Neosporin from here on out.

I am doing another fast today with the plan currently being to not eat until tomorrow’s breakfast which will wind up being close to a 36 hour fast. I was 185.6 lbs last night after the shower. The only stuff I plan to consume during this time period is water, black coffee, and some sea salt. There is a chance I could extend the fast longer but right now I am mentally committed to 36 hours and calling it good.
