I'm guessing it was the water weight from the salty nuts that I had for lunch the other day because I kept having to get up and go pee. At least I woke up for all of the times I had to go. Today was another dark and dreary day. It started off with a nice gentle rain. But it made it cold all day long. I'm not really looking forward to the blazing heat of summer, but it will be nice when it warms up enough to open the windows and turn off the heater. Getting to work this morning I had a headache again today. I thought about grabbing a Sports Drink of some kind Powerade is usually cheaper (not sponsored) but every time it started to calm down enough for me to get a break th...

    Spent all day working on a spreadsheet tracking my daily weigh ins and comparing them to goals. I love working on spreadsheets, they are quite satisfying to get working. If I could choose my dream job, I think it would be a 9 to 5, Monday to Friday, data entry job. But I think that might be a dream of a dream job, it sounds like something that could easily be replaced by AI. And I have to say It is a lot funner working out the spreadsheet tracking my weight loss over the year than it is to be cleaning my house like I'm supposed to be doing. It took me considerably longer than I expected to get all of the formulas on the spreadsheet sorted out. But at least for the rest of the year all I have to do is stand on the scale and measure my waist and input the measurements into the spreadsheet and the rest of the formulas will do the rest of the tracking calculations

    Tow guy is supposed to come get my car this afternoon. SUPPOSED TO, but you know what they say, 15th times the charm. Not that I'm getting frustrated by them not showing up./s Hooray, Hooray guy showed up. And he had a truck that could pick up my car! The truck couldn't fit inside of my building's parking lot, so he had to drive over the curb and get it from the outside. We both had a good chuckle when a car came from the High School next door and slammed on their breaks to keep from running into the tow truck. I told him one of my quips, “Paying attention is fun, more people should try it.” He didn't have a reaction other than, “You'd think that the giant truck with the flashing lights would stand out a bit.” There was a strange range of emotions when I saw the car being towed away on the back of a truck. It's a dead lump of dead metal that's been sitting there for the last three or four years. But seeing it going away kind of brought up all of the emotions of the last three or four years. Which...yeah, can't say that was a bunch of happy emotions. But at least that is done now. And when I sent a message to my landlord saying that it was gone, he just sent me a reply saying “thanks for the update” I'm getting the feeling that he really didn't care that it was gone or not and it was just the HOA wanting the old derelict vehicles to be gone. There is another car that has a license plate that is expired in the lot as well and I am kind of curious as to how long it's going to stay there, but that's really not my problem.

    The tow company gave me a check for the old car and I spent a good chunk of that check on some more groceries. It was only $150 but I was able to buy a couple of pork butts that I had cut into pork steaks and a recipe for a “Southwest Chicken Detox Soup”. It might be a couple of weeks before I upload the video of that recipe as I have to get organized to make that video. The “plan” is to make one Keto friendly recipe each week, but we'll all see if I ever get around to following that plan. I did pick up another 12 pack of Bud Light Next. I know that alcohol consumption is an ongoing issue that I'm dealing with. But the additional funding was too much of an excuse to pass up on. Maybe I'll do better on next week's grocery run. But in the meantime I'm going to leave my debit card at home because I don't feel that I can trust myself to stick to that plan with it on me.
