Brain was really unfocused this morning. Really excited that the credit card finally came in. Not in the manner of “Whoohoo shopping spree!” but more in the manner of I've spent the last month or so planning and waiting for this puzzle piece to come in. I didn't get the posts done in the last couple of days as the other night I was watching the lunar eclipse and last night when I got home the credit card was here and I did another rebalance of the budget plan. The last rebalance was because there is a $5 bonus for signing up for autopay on the phone bill, but when I tried to put the credit card on the autopay it said that the card was ineligible for using for the autopay. Not sure why that wouldn't work, but it's not a big deal. But I think I'll stop by Verizon (not sponsored) to ask them about it in the next couple of days.

I stopped by the storage unit last night on the way home from work as I am going to try to get the blog post uploaded earlier in the evening. I have been getting the post done by midnight and then trying to immediately go to bed. I haven't been sleeping all that great and Mom had suggested that the problem might be screen time before bed so I'm going to try to get the post done by 11pm at the latest and then try to spend an hour or so reading before going to sleep. The book I happened to grab last night was Oliver Twist. Not on purpose or anything, that was just the book that was easiest to grab. I didn't get any of the book read last night as I spent too long rebalancing that $5 bonus that didn't work, but I'll try to get started reading tonight. Last night Mom noticed that I had the book and got excited because I had grew up as an avid reader. Seriously how many children have gotten in trouble for reading TOO MUCH. But when I grew up I just fell out of the habit of reading. I didn't want to stop reading, it just was that I was going to get back to reading after I got this other thing done. But I always had other things that I had to do and I never got around to reading.

Work was really busy in spurts today. It seemed to be run, stop, run, stop.

I took advantage of my new credit card to buy some energy drinks and snacks. Spent more than I would like to in a single day. But still within the limits of the allowances. Had a really big steak for dinner so weight will probably be up tomorrow, but it was nice to have a little celebration for having the card come in. I hope I don't spend like today all that often. 

Oh, and I hadn't realized, six months Keto. Not quite as pure keto as I would have liked, but still a heck of a streak.
