Endless Discomforts

Sunday, February 25, 2024

Well now, that is all sorts of messed up.  Just at the annoying level, not life changing or anything, but it was a ridiculous night.  I went to bed by 8:00 pm - no surprise given that I'd been up since 2:00 am - and fell asleep promptly.  Woke for the first time a little after 10:30 with a bit of knee pain and a need to hit the restroom.  I actually felt quite good - surprisingly rested - and it was a good hour before I went back to sleep.    Woke up a second time about 2:30 with other aches and pains which I have forgotten.  Hit the bathroom and was able to get back to sleep.  Awakened at 4:30 or so with a vicious right ankle and foot cramp.  Ouch.  Worked it out, back to sleep in the recliner.  8:00 I'm bolted awake in the middle of a dream with a major left foot cramp - of the foot-curling variety.  Yow.  Painful.  And it was, oddly enough, part of my dream - I was trying to stop a slowly moving car from passenger side but was failing due to a foot cramp.

Oof.  So it was a long night.  Did not get moving here until after 8:30.  I was hoping that a ten hour window might be enough but it was not.  If not for the foot cramp I probably would have slept a while longer.  But, on balance, I feel halfway decent.  Feels like the sinus issue is mostly out of there, though it has settled in the throat a bit.  Not bad tho.

Entirely possible that my mood would be a lot less positive, though, if not for the unexpected drop on the scale.  I was anticipating a gain, though I did move some waste this morning.  But instead it was significantly lower.  I don't think that gives me a pass to eat the Maiz chips or ice cream on a regular basis or anything, but it was nice to survive.  Some other questionable things on tap today - Sundays, man - but hoping to keep it reasonable. 

Breakfast:  Bacon, greek yogurt w wild blueberries, coffee



Finished off the bacon.  Those servings were excessively large.

A little later, I had to do a little QC of something new, I made sourdough biscuits.  Verdict:  An excellent butter delivery vehicle, but could definitely be improved.  I think my starter is still a little weak.  Good flavor tho.


We'll see how they do in the freezer.

Lunch:  Scrambled eggs, home sourdough biscuits with chorizo gravy


Delicious.  Let's see, 2 biscuits, 3 eggs, 4 oz of chorizo, a little flour, a little butter, a third plus cup of milk, mexicheese, jalapenos, I think that's everything.  A lot of food but very satisfying.

Dinner:  Busy day casserole, cheesy green beans, bisquick biscuit, NSA peaches, 12 oz Miller Lite, girl scout pb patty cookies, HD vanilla ice cream


Sunday dinner.

Exercise:  Nope.

Day totals:   $0.00 spent, over on carbs, no exercise, Sunday fail.
