It took a while for the Instant Pot to get up to pressure, and that was after the rushing around to get it in the pot itself. The plan was to get the instant pot chili set up for the lunch for the week. Well, I was going to do that yesterday, but I needed to do laundry yesterday. And as it only takes 35 minutes at pressure to cook this chili and I was scheduled to work at 11:30 instead of 11am I figured that it would be fine to get that pot done before work. It was taking so long for it to get to pressure I looked it up on Reddit, and apparently the larger recipes take longer to pressurize because the entire pot has to get up to boiling ...

    The weight was up today, but not as up as I thought it would be. Didn't have much get up and go this morning. Not sure if that was because of the Mac and cheese last night, the cool cloudy weather, or just comfy bed. But I just couldn't get started today. I didn't have time to drink any coffee, so that might effect me during the day.

    Today was a very slow day at the store. Which was strange as it is the first Saturday of the month and it is a very nice sunny day. We also had a lot of help at the store, the customer service manager told me a few weeks ago that she was going to start scheduling more people and I guess this is the result of that. I'm writing this part out at lunchtime, so I might be shooting myself in the foot. Speaking about foot, my right foot really isn't happy today. My right foot and leg are really hurting. And I am glad that I'm getting into the habit of leaving my debit card at home because leading up to lunch I kept thinking about how good a Jalapeno Bacon Cheeseburger from Spangles sounded (Not sponsored). And if I had my debit card with me I probably would have stopped by there to get one. And yeah I did have mac and cheese last night for dinner, that wouldn't excuse me getting fast food for lunch the next day.

    Second half of the day was a bit more active as the sun went down. There always seems to be a feeding frenzy at sunset and we didn't have the amount of help in the evening that we had in the afternoon. But it did slow down again once it got dark.

    My water bottle did come in the mail today, but it came in while I was at work so I really drink any of the water that I was going to today. But I did finish up the soda that I had left. I'm going to try to make that the last of the soda that I'll ever drink. There's a very old proverb (I don't think proverb is the right word, I just can't think of the right one) that says, “Eat only food, drink only water” (And going to still have coffee in the morning, because well...It's coffee) And tomorrow is Sunday so starting a new habit on the first day of the week is (hopefully) just as good as starting a habit on the first day of the year.

    Next week I only have one day off. (Tuesday) When I first saw the schedule for next week I was excited because I thought I was scheduled for some more overtime. But when I added up the hours I am just at 40 hours for the week. So the no overtime kinda stinks, it also kind of stinks that I'm working six days next week to get up to 40 hours. Oh well, at least I'll be able to sleep in a few days next week. Ironically I might be more productive next week than I normally am. I'll have time off in the morning, but still have something to balance the time off against. On my days off I sit around all day thinking I have all day to get anything done, so I never get anything done. That's what I'm wanting to do, what I'm actually probably going to do is wake up at 8am not have to work until 1pm and then lay/sit around counting down the time until I have to get ready for work.
