I'm thinking about going by the bank tomorrow before work to get another savings account set up. This fourth savings account will be for a house payment. I'm only planning on staying at Mom's house for a about a year so I'll be putting as much as I can into that account to save up so I could buy a house. And when I do get moved out I'll be keeping those accounts. The bill savings will go to the bills, House Savings will go to mortgage (writing that out feels weird, I'm used to saying “rent”) then Project Savings will go to any big purcha...

Sober Year 1 (Day 375)
Keto Day 5

Woke up in a really comfortable mood. I'm working 10-7 today so a little bit earlier than I'm used to. And I did wake up naturally right at 8am, but I kept trying to tell myself that I have less time than normal to get things done. It was like my brain was saying, “we need to get up and hurry!” and my body was like, “cool, cool story bro”

The weight has tracked up over the last couple of days, but not nearly as much as the last several years. In the previous years I had thought that it was because of the onset of winter.

When I did get up and going and took my watch off to put it on the charging pad I noticed that there was some puss on the inside of my wrist. I had noticed a sore developing where the buckle (?) is on my wrist and it seemed to be too tight no matter how loose the band was the band kept leaving an impression on my wrist. But now that it broke the skin I'll leave the watch off for a couple of days. It won't be able to track heart rate, steps, or sleep patterns, but I think healing the wrist is a bit more important than data tracking. It seems a bit ironic, the lotions that Mom gave me are “Healing” and “Motorizing” and I've been trying to keep each lotion on one hand each, and I've been using the “Healing” lotion on the right hand and a sore developed on my left hand. Oh well, there goes that experiment. I went ahead and put the “healing” lotion on the sore and am going to keep the watch off for a while.

Kid at work got pissy with me because he didn't know how to run the self checkout. He'd got a bit of the “here catch training” and was watching the Self Checkout while the cashier ran to the restroom. I wrote a bit of a novel there before I realized that I was just filling the page with another “Mark Whines About Work” Post. The short of it was he didn't know what he was doing; ignoring me, the supervisor who's literal job is to help him do his job; and ignoring the cashier, who had came back from the restroom, and has been running the self checkout everyday for the last couple of years. Seriously come on kid, I've been running these for longer than you've been alive, let me tell you how to run the register!

I had the Jumbo Jumbo Hot Dogs for lunch. I realized that after the serving that I'll have tomorrow for lunch will be the last of that package. I will be off on Monday so I'll be able to have baked chicken for lunch Monday and then when I do the grocery shopping on Tuesday I'll make the Chicken Enchilada Soup that I've been trying to make for a while now. With the gas light turning on in my car I thought about doing the grocery shopping and refueling on Monday, but there's no reason that I wouldn't be able to wait for Tuesday. I don't work Monday so it's not like I have to go anywhere other than work tomorrow.

I had some pork steaks in the fridge over the last several days, but they had soured when the freezer frosted over the vents. I did find some more pork steaks in the freezer, but they took longer to bake as they were still frozen.
