Excessive Reclining

Sunday, January 25, 2026

There is an obvious downside to days like yesterday, where I don't even leave the house:  I spend entirely too much time in the recliner.  Yesterday may have been the most extreme edition ever, the hour total was ridiculous.  I will be at least a little more active today.

I expected my sleep to be a bit off after getting eight hours Friday night but good grief.  I did not get to sleep until 2:30.  Hours and hours past my bedtime.  Just was not sleepy.  Woke up at 6:30 and got no meaningful sleep after that despite being very dozy.  Took until 8:30 to get going.  Pathetic.  But thank goodness it's the weekend.

Also a predictable consequence of too many hours in the recliner, too many carbs and general inactivity:  Weight gain.  BP number was good, pulse only somewhat WTF high.

Let's have a day.

Breakfast:  Spelt lazy bagels with cream cheese, coffee

 

Baked them longer and they were very good.

Part of the interesting challenge of zero food spend January and my upcoming plans for February involves working around things I run out of.  I know I'm going to run out of K cups and I currently don't have a restock in the plan.  I have a packet of french roast I got in a Christmas box that will probably cover things for a couple weekends - I never have coffee at home during the week anyway.  But it's another thing that I will be completely out of by the end of next month.

Lunch:  NR gyro slices, bone broth basmati rice, Meijer hot dill pickle spear

 

A meat item from the freezer and cooked up the rest of my rice stock to use that up and the rest of the bone broth.  Also ate the last pickle.

Dinner:  Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, cheesy green beans, NSA peaches, 12 oz Miller Lite, chocolate chip cookies

 

Sunday dinners.  All good.  Ate a bit much.  Cookies were okay, not the finest batch, but I used up the chocolate chips, brown sugar and almost all of the flour.

 

And the capper, a glass of milk.
