Good drop on the scale this morning. Not quite as low as the record on Saturday, but still really nice.

Great to notice that my left foot has stopped hurting. Not sure if that's because of the weight loss, the fact that I've been off of my feet a lot for most of the week so far, or a combination of each. But it is nice to walk around without limping and I can walk with the entire foot. Or I so I thought as later in the evening when I ran to the store to get a couple of things the foot really started twinging. I don't know if I'm sitting in the car wrong or something but it was feeling fine until I got in the car but not for long.

Slow waking up again this morning. Burnt the bacon at lunch. The pan was already hot as Mom had just cooked an egg and a sausage patty for her breakfast so I added bacon to the already hot pan. Bacon usually works better when you start it with a pan that isn't heated up yet so it didn't take as long as normal to cook the bacon so it was a bit crispier than I normally have it. And even though I turned the heat all of the way down the grease was splattering like crazy when I put the eggs in the pan.

Doing laundry today. A few days ago Mom asked me how often I washed my bedding. I was kind of wanting to be sarcastic with her and ask, “Oh, are you supposed to wash your sheets?” as in the old place I really never did bring my blankets and sheets over when I did laundry. I did wash the bedding that was on the guest bed the first week I was over here, but not since then. She told me that it's best to wash those every two weeks.

The question I have there is HOW THE HELL HAS IT BEEN AN ENTIRE MONTH ALREADY?! It is a strange feeling when I shower in the morning it kind of feels like the same day over and over. Like I just got up from a nap and am taking another shower.

I baked a pork loin for lunch today. I remembered to cut it in half to have the other half tomorrow for lunch.

I got up and managed to clean some windows. I was hoping that Mom's homemade multi-surface cleaner would work for windows. It did seem to. It is a nice smelling cleaner, she made it out of citrus and some other essential oils. I did a little other light cleaning. I didn't think that I did very much, but Mom was impressed when she got home from a gathering with her friends.

When I moved back home there was a lamp table next to the bed that was kind of in the way of where a good place where the dresser would go. The bed needed to be moved over a little bit so the dresser would fit. I noticed that the bed was moved over a couple of days ago, Mom says that neither her nor Step-Dad would ever go into my room to move my bed. I don't know, but the bed is moved. The lamp table was able to fit into the closet and I was able to move the dresser over to where it should have gone the month ago (still doesn't fell like a whole month) when I moved in. That gives a bit more room by the desk where it was sitting.

I ran by the store as I was out of allergy medicine, and it's a bad time of year to be low on that. I wasn't going to buy any more food, but the Johnsonville Bratwursts had a digital coupon (not sponsored) the original price for them was $6.99 and they were on sale for $3.99. But I seriously need to stop buying more food. I took inventory and I have about 40 meals in the garage freezer and it is quite full.
