Weight is up, but that might be because of the Ham Steak I had last night and the drinks I had afterwords as the saltiness made me thirsty. It really is kind of funny to be frustrated at a weight that's under 310 lbs (140.6 kg)

There is a couple strips of bacon left in the fridge, but Step-Dad had told me about some sausage patties in the fridge that I could check out. I have to say that those turned out pretty nice. Nice and crispy.

I went to the store to pick up some Pork Butts that were BOGO this week (Not sponsored) I also picked up some chicken thighs that were Buy One Get 2 Free (honestly not sponsored) and some chuck roasts that had digital coupons. I had forgotten to clip the digital coupons for the chuck roasts so I had to go back in and get that refunded. I also picked up some pork loins as well as the bacon that Step-Dad suggested that I pick up as I was going through the bacon faster than his biweekly shopping trip was supplying. I went over budget by quite a bit on the groceries this week, but now have food to last the next several weeks. And looking at the spending spreadsheet I am WAY under what I had spent on food by this time last year.

I put one of the roasts in the slow cooker for the lunch plan for the next couple of days. I split the roast into two lunchboxes, but I'm thinking that they should have been three boxes.

I was kind of disappointed in the packages of chicken. They were buy one get two free so I picked up 3 packs of drumsticks and three packs of thighs as those packages usually have four thighs I was able to count that the drumsticks had about 5 per pack so I was thinking of packing them with two thighs and two drumsticks per package. That would leave a pack with three drumsticks, but that's just math. However when I opened the packages each of the packs of the thighs they each had three thighs. I don't think that was a symptom of “Shrinkflation” that people talk about online. These chickens had some “American Thighs” to reference AC/DC. So I just packaged them as Thighs in some packs and Drumsticks in other bags.

Really scatterbrained (that's a word?!) today. When I woke up I told myself that I was going to use the day off to work on getting scripts for videos done. But I just couldn't get around to even opening up the writing program.

Mom asked me if I was planning on doing laundry today and I debated on even bothering as since I did laundry last week it was only about a half dozen pairs of underpants and socks along with a few shirts and a couple pairs of pants. It kind of seemed like a waste to make such a small laundry load. But figured it was better to keep up on it than have it pile up.

For dinner I had a pork steak from the groceries. Mom had fried hers and I grilled mine.

 I tried to get this post done as it was only a little after 9 when I started working on it, but just kept dozing off. I really do want to post these before midnight to avoid confusion when looking at the title and the day that the post was posted. I'm sure that it doesn't matter, but I would rather it would be posted before midnight so at least I can get to bed on time.
