Thank you to all who served. Quick post because I spent the day at Mom's house doing laundry. I don't know what happened to the entire evening as I got home around 8 (I think) I did inventory of the food in the freezer and then cooked the Cabbage Soup that I'm planning for dinner and I was shocked to see that it was 11:30. well, I did have to run to the store at around 9pm to grab a bag of cauliflower rice that I had forgotten when I did the shopping this morning while Roommate was at his doctor's appointment. It really shouldn't have taken two and a half hours to cook that soup. It's not a complicated soup.  As I was at Mom's house when I would have normally had lunch I didn't have lunch. 1,000% certain...

The sleep app says that I didn't get enough sleep. And I did have a hard time falling asleep last night. I didn't have breakfast as I was waiting for Roommate to wake up and go to his appointment like he usually does on Tuesdays but by 10:30 I got tired of waiting for him to wake up so I thought I would go ahead and cook breakfast, but I was out of eggs. I remembered that I was going to buy eggs when he was at his appointment like I usually do as I do the grocery shopping while he's at the doctor. It is true that Mom gives me some of her eggs, but I don't want to snag all that she has. She only has 4 chickens and I eat four eggs a day. He did get up right as...

As I was going to bed I noticed that it was just getting to 11pm, I usually post around midnight. But I was so tired by eyes were starting to stick closed. Even so the sleep tracking app still says I was awake until after 2am. And I still woke up at 8am, even though I should be used to be waking up an hour earlier because of the time change. Spent a while thawing out the freezer. It's not completely thawed out as there is still ice in the back of the box, but at least the vents are uncovered so the food in the fridge will stay good. I'm sure that leaving a bit of ice in the back of the freezer isn't very g...

It was 8:15, just about the regular time that I usually wake up. Than I realized. Daylight Savings ended over the night. My watch is linked to my phone which automatically updates the time. So even though there was an extra hour this morning because of the time switch I still woke up at the same clock time. Kind of a humored annoyance. I could have done anything I wanted for an extra hour and what did I end up doing? Sleeping. Oh well, woke up well rested. When I did eventually wake up I noticed that the milk in the fridge was curdled even though the expiration date was still a couple of days from now. The butter is still stiff and the store bought eggs are still passing the float test so I still ...

(Donations still appreciated) Heck even my phone is charged to 100% Today is good. And I don't even have that feeling that a boot is about to drop. Everything is just so good this morning. The only thing that I have to pay yet is the Rent and the Car Registration is due this month, but those are both well within the budget over the next couple of weeks. If everything goes to plan this month is going to look kind of strange with the bills as all of the bills for November were paid in October and the bills for December will be paid the first week of December so it will kind of look like there weren...

It wasn't too bad once I got up and moving, but getting started kinda sucked. Still not as bad as it could be this time of year. It should be fixed this afternoon though so looking forward to that. Nice number on the scale. I wish I could be confident with the number it gave me. But it was the same number on multiple stands on it Roommate did send me a text while I was at work and the heater is now up and running. The AC Guy also installed a new thermostat. Roommate said that it was a “Smart” thermostat but it doesn't seem to have any kind of WIFI connections or anything so I'm not sure how “smart” it is, kind of hoping that it isn't a “Smart Device” But it has a Digital Screen so it is easier to read what ...

It's been since March since I've been pushing bills around and pulling all of the money out of savings to just keep up with the previous months bills. I had always had the current months bill payed off by the end of the month, but that had always left the next month bill already due because the month had just started. So I finally have the months bills payed before the month started. So I'm technically double paying the internet bill and paying the car insurance at the beginning of the month and again at the end of the month so it looks like the car insurance and internet bill are double the regular amount, but all of the bills are payed for November and the...

The scale was glitching again this morning. I admit that I had used the lowest number that it had listed, but it was the most consistent number that it gave. It was quite cold in the apartment this morning. It's late October so I shouldn't complain that we still haven't had a hard freeze yet. But it would have been nice to have a heater. I'm sure that the landlord will be out as soon as we call him to have it fixed. But Roommate said that he would be the one to call him and I'm ...
