I didn't get either of the uploads done. I had plenty of time before work as I worked 12p to 9pm on Sunday. After work I did have a bit of time, but turns out that listening to a video of Hearts of Space isn't conductive to get anything done after running around for 9 hours. I closed the Service Desk last night, I was feeling good when I left work as all of the closing reports came out balanced. All of the registers were working. The people working weren't exactly the smartest people, but they were pretty street smart kinds of people. But then I got a call at 5am from Assistant Custome...

     Wow, I have not been up on this for far too long. I've been doing the daily weigh in and tracking that on (probably way too many) spreadsheets, but I just haven't been doing pretty much anything else. Not really sure why I stopped doing anything. I didn't WANT to stop doing stuff. I just kept telling myself, “I wasn't very 'Keto' today, I'll just do it tomorrow”. The beer wasn't helping in that area at all. The last several months the large cans of Natural ICE beer have been on sale for $0.99 per can. (It's not a good beer it's just cheep) And I have been taking advantage of this sale. And I have been drinking much more beer than that. As when the store is sold out of the Natural ICE beer I'd pick up other cases of beer. I know that alcohol is a poison, particularly a mental poison, but I am afraid that I am mentally addicted to the calming effect that it provides. Someone I work with is insistent that she HAS to go to her AA meetings. But the way she describes these meetings sounds horrifying to me personally. That's kind of ironic when I'm spilling my guts here on this blog. But at least I'm not doing it on a stage in front of others, like she describes it.

     I have been (more or less) getting back to the Keto diet over the last couple of days. I know that you can't “more or less” Keto. But I must be doing something right, I've been peeing like a horse every couple of minutes and I have been experiencing an increase in mental clarity and energy. And I'm pretty sure that those are indications that you're getting back into the Ketogenic state. I've been eating hot dogs, cottage cheese, and Powerade Zero for lunch over the last couple of days and I think that is starting to get me back on track.

     Had a hard time getting going this morning. The plan for today was to wake up early (for me) and get a recipe list together and get the grocery list for a Pick Up order at the store. My store has a service where you can make a list and someone will shop the list and bring it out to your car. But this morning was a bit cooler than it had been recently and it was kind of dark and cloudy so it was nice to just kind of lay there as I didn't have to go to work today.

     So when I did get up and going I told myself that the kitchen and the rest of the house was NOT in a condition where I wanted to make any recipe video. So I made a recipe list and made a Pick Up order of the ingredients for the recipes that I wanted to make the house was not in the condition that I wanted to be in for making a recipe video. So I thought I'd spend the day cleaning the house in preparation for those videos. But there were some sausages that I had a digital coupon for that were not listed for sale on the on-line order so I went into the store to buy those sausages. But when I went into the store to buy those sausages, unfortunately I fell to the temptation of picking up some more of the beer that I want to be avoiding. But tomorrow is Sunday so I am unable to buy any alcohol on Sunday so hopefully I can use that as the start for a new habit of not buying beer on the way home from work. Particularly because if I have enough recipes cooked up for the week I can leave my debit card at home
