Sober Year 1 (Day 498)
Keto Month 2 (Day 61) (110/365 Days 2026 Keto)

I didn't get around to making a post yesterday. I got off at 7:30pm, but by the time I had finished updating the budget it was well after midnight.

I did get around to talking to the guy at the storage place yesterday before work. I told him that I was a little concerned that I hadn't received a bill. He looked up the unit that I had and the bill was due. It had just happened to come due the day that I went into the office and ask about when it was due. I thought that was kind of convenient. I went the rest of the day thinking that was suspiciously convenient that I asked about when it was due and it happened to be due when I asked when it was due. I have no reason to be suspicious of them, but that thought lingered. But the good thing was when I signed up for the unit I thought the monthly fee was $130, but the receipt only showed it as $110. So that's what kept me up re-balancing the budget as I was going to have an extra $20 each month that I needed to re-balance the savings plan for.

What kind of sucked yesterday was at my lunch break I sat around for too long so I didn't have time to run the lunchbox out to the car so I figured that I'd just put it in the break room fridge. Then when I opened the door to the fridge the handle bumped the glass lunchbox out of my hand and it didn't survive the tile floor. I shared a picture on Facebook of the broken lunchbox, and some people had expressed sympathy that I had missed out on lunch. However I had already eaten and it was after that I dropped the lunchbox.

That was yesterday. Today I just had a hard time building any momentum to do anything. Woke up at the usual around 7:45, but it was close to 9 by the time I rolled out of bed. The last couple of days I just really didn't want to do anything other than lay there. I'm not feeling sick, or mentally down or anything. It's just that it was nice laying there. Last couple of nights I don't want to fall asleep, and then in the morning I don't feel like getting up.

I did end up getting up and I had some more of the sausage patties and eggs for breakfast.

I did end up going to Walmart and got a new tape measure. I'm sure that I'll find the old one tomorrow morning. I also had to grab a lamp out of storage as where the light in the bedroom is on the ceiling my face is completely in shadow and videos wouldn't look very good without the light. The Bank was having an event where they were serving free hot dogs. I was going to swing by but on the way to the bank my stomach went really south. I stopped by the store, but both the customer and associate bathrooms were occupied so I had to run back home.

I spent the day debating on whether to write out the script of the video I'm wanting to make this week or just ad lib it. But I just couldn't generate the energy to even make the script for the video. And making the video from scratch takes even more energy. I really should have made the video when I first woke up as over the day the energy just sank lower and lower. Even with the monster I had with the baked chicken I had for lunch. 

Mom cooked a chuck roast for dinner. She made some potatoes for her and Step-Dad, but I skipped the potatoes as those aren't very Keto. I was kind of curious as to how she was going to cook it as whenever I cook chuck roast I put it in the slow cooker for 4 to 8 hours and it was a bit late when she started it and I didn't think that she'd want to stay up until 10pm just for a bit of roast. She ended up boiling it on a low flame for a while. It turned out the way that I keep wanting roast to turn out. When I make it I want it to be able to cut up into chunks like hers, but when I make it the meat just shreds up. 

Hey, two whole months Keto. I'm pretty sure this is the longest that I've ever done the diet.
