The inside of my nose was burning. It reminded me of when I was a kid and heard that smelling pepper makes you sneeze, so I snorted some black pepper to see if it would make me sneeze. (Pro-tip: Don't do that, it sucks) I was going to do Bacon and Eggs , but decided on one of the smaller pork steak and eggs. It was a bit of a challenge to cook the steak because it split into two parts, but had a connecting piece that just got tangled up. All day it felt like I took a baseball bat to the sinuses. I do believe that the medicine that I bought yesterday did help. But the nose was still running like crazy. There was a bit of an air show in my neighborhood this morning. The National Gua...

    Spent all day thinking that I'm going to get back into the daily blog thing. I was scheduled to work at noon to 9 this evening, closing the customer service desk instead of the normal 11am to 8pm as Supervisor. So I had a bit more time this morning to get the weekly weigh in video done. I'm on quite a streak on working those weekly weigh in videos. I've only missed one week so far this year.

    Today was the first day back from “vacation”. And today went surprisingly smoothly. Today was the day before Memorial Day. And it was quite quiet for a day before a major holiday. And also there has been more than one time where the the first day back from vacation I've had moments of extreme anger flash up. But today was really quite chill.

    I got a quite a long way into a paragraph how the store did a “here catch training strategy” on some of my coworkers to get some more supervisors. But I really don't want this to be a blog where I just complain about work.

    I wasn't as productive last week as I was wanting to be. I got most of June's recipe videos made, but I didn't get any of the blog posts, various other videos, or much of the house cleaning that I was wanting to get done. But I'm trying to focus on the thought that I did get three quarters of the recipe videos done for next month and I did get most of the living room cleaned up. And I did get a meal plan together for this week.

     Kind of proud of myself that I was able to spend an entire day without buying any more food or soda. It feels like a strange brag, but this is the main drain on my finances. I keep buying a fridge/freezer full of food, but then keep buying stuff for lunch as well as spending WAY too much on energy shots and soda. The first half of work I kept feeling the habitual drive to pick up an energy shot, I drove it off with the fact that I drank most of a pot of coffee before work, and I wasn't feeling tired I was just fighting the habit of the energy shot.

    For lunch I came home for some of the AI inspired Beef Soup that I made a video of a while ago. Today was the first bowl of it that I had of it, unfortunately the beef chunks were really tough and chewy. Good flavor, but I think it would have been better with ground beef instead of the stew beef that the recipe had called for. When I was home for lunch the scale was beeping that it had low battery. The funny thing was that I was so good at convincing myself to not buy any more food or soda after work I forgot to get new batteries for it so I had to drive back to the store after work to get some.

    This is going to be posted after midnight, but only because I worked later in the evening than I normally would have and had to run back to the store before it closed. So I'm going to still call it good enough for the daily blog.
