And why I didn't consider that goal “beaten” just yet. It is kind of fun to be “frustrated” by a weight of 301.4. The average weight for the year has finally gotten below 2015 so this is the second lowest year by average so far. I was kind of nervous about my schedule for next week. I was on vacation this week so I didn't have any hours and when they released the schedule yesterday it didn't show any hours for next week. But the week after that had hours. I wasn't sure what was going on I reloaded the app several times and checked the website, but that website ...

Was woken up at 4 in the morning to Roommate screaming in the bathroom again. Really reinforcing my savings plan.

But was able to go back to sleep until the proper 8am. I was able to have breakfast. And was excited to see the “down” on the scale.

The back of my hands felt like sandpaper this morning. I put some of the lotions that Mom gave me a couple of months ago. For a while I was doing a bit of an experiment with them doing the “Healing Lotion” on my right hand and the “Moisturizing Lotion” on my left hand. But clumsiness and cross-contamination made that impossible. So today I just put both of the lotions on both of my hands. I like how they make my hands smell like Tea.

I came across what I thought was going to be an interesting video of Greek Locations in the Bible. But it was just AIBS. It was just one of those lazy videos where somebody just pushed “Generate” on Chat GPT and posted whatever it vomited up. I'm not completely apposed to using AI to help make videos, but this thing was just barely finishing a sentence before moving on to an entirely new topic. I'm not sure how to explain it, but the wording it used really just sounded like copy/paste from AI.

I forgot my note at the store in my supervisor vest. Wrote down quite a bit, but when I got home my brain just kind of shutdown. Oh well, I'm sure most of it was “Mark Whines About Work”

There was a guy who held up a small bag of ice and declared that it was the only ice he doesn't fear. (He was white) I knew what he was referring to. But I couldn't help but ask if he was afraid of the 20 pound bag that we also sell. 

In the last hour of work I grabbed a Savage Slim Jim. I know that I was just buying it because I was “mouth hungry” I knew that I didn't NEED a snack, I was just really wanting to eat something. Probably because I had decided to make Pizza Casserole for the lunch plan this coming up Tuesday. The security guard was kind of confused by the concept of a “pizza casserole” He asked me if I meant a Calzone. A calzone wouldn't really fit into my plan for the weekly meal plan as that's more of a single meal thing. He asked if I meant to make a lasagna. I could and had before, but I'm thinking more of a Pizza Casserole. He was blown away and asked if I was going to bake a pizza and pretty much just scrape the toppings off of the crust to make a casserole out of it. Well, kind of, but without bothering with the crust at all. He just couldn't understand how you could have a pizza without a crust.

At my lunch break I had put a Bottom Round Roast into the slow cooker with a can of cream of mushroom soup and an envelope of onion soup mix. I had made this recipe a lot with Chuck Roast. But when I got home this evening the meat was extremely tough. I'm not sure if four hours on high is too long for bottom round, or if that's just not a way to cook that kind of roast. But I won't be doing that again with that kind of roast. It really set Roommate off as he had accidentally swallowed a piece wrong and it blocked his airway. And he has had already had chest problems for a while and coughing up meat really hurt his chest, which started flaring up pain in his leg. Kind of felt bad becasue it was my messing up dinner that almost gave him a heart attack and flared up pain in his bad leg.
