And I spent a lot of the evening after work editing it. So a lot of the mental energy went into that. It's not a lot of editing to do it's just getting rid of the “um's and uh's” throughout the video. My videos are really just me talking to the camera. I should be able to upload it tomorrow before work if not then it'll be up after work. I was eager to try to get that video done because I had received an email from Patreon saying that since my account had been idle for so long it is about to be “unpublished” I have yet to get anybody to sign up for my Patreon and I doubt that I ever will, but it definitely won't ...

Last night when I went to bed I did see a couple of flashes of lightning which is to be expected for March in Kansas. Brain is really flat lined this morning. I know that there are things that I want to be doing, there are things that I should be doing. I just can't think of what those things are supposed to be. I knew that I worked 2pm to 10pm this evening. And I knew that when I work later in the evening I usually sit around doing math about how much I have left before I have to go to work. And that's all I do and I always get frustrated that all I do is sit around counting down until I have to go to work. I figured sitting down was the problem so I tried not to sit...

And another lowest weight since 2019. Only 1.1 lbs (0.5 kg) from beating that record. And only 2.7 lbs (1.2 kg) from the “progress goal” of 314.8 lbs (142.8 kg), the weight where I started keeping track back in 2014 And if I'm looking at things right the 52.5 inch (133.4 cm) waist measurement is the lowest recorded on this blog. Lots of mental energy this morning, but my body is like, “cool story bro” Brain is saying, “we're going to clean the kitchen, and behind the desk, get the bedroom organized!” Body is saying, “Yeah, no we're not” Quite a bit of mental energy today, trying to conv...

So hopefully he's feeling better. And during the day he did cough and gag less than he had been before. Today was an active day, mostly in the kitchen. I did the typical grocery shopping while Roommate was at his appointment. As I did my shopping at my store, and my store doesn't carry the Almond Flour that I was needing for the Fathead Pizza that I was planning on making for dinner tonight I was going to go over to the Big Store on the other end of town. But just as I was finishing the main shopping Roommate called and said he was done with his appointment. As I was grabbing the Almond Flour Room...
