Sober Year 1 (Day 672)
Keto Month 7 (Day 232) (275/365 Days 2026 Keto)

It looks like I'll have to go over the numbers again to count the days sober/Keto/etc as looking at the count again it was off by a bit. Now that it's in the “creepy season” I'm a little disappointed that I missed marking the 666th day sober. That could have been fun.

Really not sure what happened to yesterday (Tuesday). Tuesday is my day off so I just kind of laid around surprised by the passing of hours. I went to write down the blog of the day, but was surprised that it was half past midnight. Not that I had much to say about yesterday. I did get a set of Stuffed Bell Pepper Soup made for the coming week's lunches.

It was kind of sad last night when Mom was putting the chickens to bed one of them seemed to be missing. One of them had found a way to jump on top of the run and out of the fenced area. She had been nicknamed “Hendini” and lately we could hear coyotes yapping outside at night. So when the wondering chicken never wondered back it was thought that she had served for supper for the wild canines. But when Mom did a headcount this morning they were all present. Mom guessed that she had decided to spend the night out in the trees and came home in the morning.

The weight has been frustratingly stable over the last month or two. I keep telling myself that I'm going to start doing push-up and sit-ups in the morning. But it's always tomorrow. However for this morning I decided to have fewer eggs for breakfast. The chickens are doing their seasonal molt so they're producing fewer eggs. And I am going to try having 2 eggs with the bacon instead of the 4 that I was having to see if that helps with the weight. Or at least that was the thought this morning. Writing out that I'm cutting 2 eggs to expect much difference seems silly.

The bill for the yearly car tag registration arrived on Monday while I was at work. It wasn't due until the end of November, but I had the funds to go ahead and pay it off. One of the very few years that I had the funds to do this. And wow is it satisfying to pay a bill as soon as it came in. I went ahead and paid off the Credit Card as well. Paying off the credit in full seems to have a monumental effect on the credit score.

Last night I cooked soup for lunch this week, but as Mom didn't have a microwave to reheat the soup I decided to have some chicken in the air fryer for lunch. Step-Dad had asked us to be easy on the Monster Energy Drinks as he hadn't picked up any in his last shopping trip so I helped myself to some of the Dr Pepper Zero that was in the fridge.

The weather has been kind of disappointingly warm. It's late October, it's not supposed to be in the 80's (+27 C) I don't know if I'm ready for the full hard freeze, but I am a big fan of fall and I am ready for the cooler breezes.

The chicken that I had for lunch was rather large and wasn't that hungry at dinner and was relieved when Mom suggested that we just have some hot dogs. 

Spent the later part of the evening listening to horror story audiobooks. Tonight was Fall of the House of Usher and then Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Listened to them on YouTube. It took a bit to find them not narrated by AI Voices.
