I did have time to shower and cook breakfast, but didn't have time to have coffee. I was in the desk for most of the day. Which I was glad for as it got quite warm again today. It looks like next week is going to all be in the mid to upper 70's which I'm looking forward to. I'm am VERY over these 100+ degree (38+ C) days. It is kind of fun how the first day of fall is this coming Tuesday and it looks like the weather is on a switch to fall like weather of 77 (25 C) and cloudy for most of the week.

I was able to wake up an convince myself to get out of bed around 8am. It was still close to 10 by the time I showered and started cooking breakfast.

I got the chili cooked and the various foods vacuum sealed and put away.

I ran into town to pay off the storage fee for the month. I had a strange feeling when driving away from the storage place. It doesn't feel like five months. Every time I pay the monthly storage fee it feels like a couple of days ago.

As I was in town anyway I ran by the store to grab some cheese to go in the chili. When I got to the store a lady in a white Lincoln that looked a lot like my Grandma's car. The lady was upset that her car door wasn't opening. I don't know much about cars, but I looked at her door handle. The interior handle was jammed to the open position, but the door wouldn't open. I jiggled the handle around and it felt like it was full of sand. Thankfully the outer door handle worked so she was able to get out. She asked me what *I* was going to do about it. I repeatedly told her that I don't know anything about cars. She insisted that I “worked there” so I had to help her because she was a customer. I was off today, and I'm a cashier, I don't know anything about cars. Sorry. I ended up walking away while she asked me what I was going to do about it. I would suggest not driving it more than you have to and find somebody that can fix cars. I can't help you.

When I was in the store Grandma called me and asked me to do her a favor. She was wanting me to sweep the leaves and dust out of her garage as she is having guests in a few days. She gave me $20 for the task, but I would have done it for free. She asked me to drive her car back into her garage after sweeping it out. And it was a bit of a squeeze to get into her Lincoln (no sponsored). I didn't want to mess with her seating settings so I sat in it the way it was. It's a good sized car, but she's a little lady so she has the seat pushed a good ways up.

I ran back into town to put the money Grandma gave me into the bank and on the way home I realized that it was kind of silly for me to have the chili set up for lunch this week as I'm on Paid Time Off in three days and Mom doesn't have a microwave to heat up the chili I have saved up. But thinking about it chili is something that can be reheated on the stove top. And it's a chance to have Keto Chili Dogs.

I started Grilling some cheeseburger patties. However the grill ran out of gas so I finished cooking them on the stove.

This evening when messing with the credit card account website I noticed something that made me step away and wonder around for a bit. The credit card had defaulted to make the monthly payment due on the 27th of each month. That's not a big deal; I was just planning on paying all of the bills the Thursday before the 27th of each month. A little annoying that there are a lot of months there is a Thursday after the 27th. Before I got the card I always tried to pay the bills on the last payday of the month using the first of each month as a placeholder until I can edit the bill for that month. But looking at the site you can choose the date that the payment is due. Oddly you can't choose any day of the month. You have to choose the 1st, 5th, 9th, 13th, 17th, or the 27th. There is an info thing to click on that asks, "Why can't I choose a different date" But it just says that not all months have the same number of days so the 29th through the 31st won't work. But I don't see why, say, the 15th or the 20th or whatever is also off limits. But hey I want to have it set to the first so I picked that. I will still pay it off on the last Thursday of the month. So I had to RE-BALANCE everything AGAIN! But at least it now looks a lot cleaner in the future.
