I know that you're not supposed to get hung up on the day to day weights, but that's just an irritation. It was so very satisfying this morning when I checked by bank balances and the rent check had came through and it left me with the amount that I'm wanting to keep for the weekly allowance. Or close enough, it was off by $5, but that's how much I had transferred to the various accounts yesterday. Today was hopping busy at the store. There was a rumor that tomorrow is going to be, shock, gasp, horror, going to be the average normal temperature for January...

    Woke up this morning with a doozy of a hangover. It is true what they say about the Keto diet and hangovers. And that was after drinking an entire 24 pack of Michelob. I wasn't queasy or anything but again I woke up tired and my head felt like it was exploding. Had weird popping feelings in my feet that did NOT feel good. If I ever get around to seeing a doctor I'm definitely going to have them look at my feet. I'm fairly confident that walking around this long with more than double my supposedly "ideal" weight has caused some issues that ignoring is just making worse.

    I actually had two days off this week. The last couple of weeks I've only had one day off, it was nice to have two this week. It kind of a mixed blessing to have them two in a row though. It's nice to have 48 straight hours where I don't have to deal with work stuff, but it kind of stinks that I have to wait until next week to get another day off. If I ever get a 9 to 5 office job this view might change. It would be nice to have someone ask you, “What you're planning for the weekend?” and have a better response than, “What is a weekend?”

    I had a more of a sit down kind of day yesterday, I got some groceries bought, and dishes done, but that's about all I got done yesterday. Today I did laundry. At least I got another day where I could just sit down for most of it. It's kind of frustrating that it takes so long to clean my clothes, but I do wait for every scrap of cloth I own to be dirty before doing laundry. I don't have laundry machines at my house so my mom is kind enough to let me use her machines. She was busy helping my grandmother (I live in a very blessed family) to hang out much with me. But she was there long enough to mention a concern with my drinking habit. This is something that I do want to address. She seems to think that her mentioning her concerns as “preaching” but I do know that what she is saying is coming from a place of love (I live in a very blessed family) I don't think anything she has said as “Preaching” I'm not sure how to exactly define “preaching” but I do agree with every thing she is telling me. My great uncle struggled with alcoholism and ended up...um, ending himself because of alcohol. I don't see myself going in that direction. But as Dr. Berry has often said, Alcohol IS a poison, no mater how many carbs are in the drink.

    I got hungry while doing laundry so I ran to the store and picked up a small container of cottage cheese. All day long I was craving potato chips and dip, but I knew that wouldn't be very Ketogenic. I did think about just running to a fast food “restaurant”, but that wouldn't be Keto or financially smart. The cottage cheese was only a little over $2. Good luck finding anything at a fast food restaurant for about $2. And the cottage cheese with salt and pepper seemed to scratch the itch for potato chips. Maybe I was just needing more salt.

    Normally when I do laundry at Mom's house she will supply a dinner for me, but I got done with the laundry earlier than I normally would, and she was busy helping Grandma. So on the way home I wondered what I was going to do for dinner. I thought about running to the store to just grab some Hamburger Helper and just “Keto tomorrow”, but then I remembered that I still had the stuff to make Deconstructed Pizza Casserole so I got that done. And that REALLY scratched an itch that I've had for pizza that I've been struggling with lately. Thankfully I've hadn't had the money to buy or order any pizza. But at least I got the ingredients I have already bought used.
