Into The Deep Freeze

Friday, January 23, 2026

Brrr.  Below zero this morning and tonight is supposed to be truly exceptional.  Not my favorite weather.  On the plus side, lots of things are closed today so my schedule is pretty clear.  Maybe I can get some work done.

Spent some time last night having fun with numbers.  I have been figuring out what I want to do for my February challenge after no spend (on food) January.  I think I pretty much have it sorted, but am going to run through different scenarios this weekend.  As a preview it's a continuation of January's theme of eating down the stock of stuff on hand and spending less, just not $0.00.  It's pretty handy to have online and app access to store pricing information so I can know and map out what I'll be spending on February 1.

Otherwise, small drop on the scale, BP okay but shaded a bit high, pulse number WTF.  I have never been good at getting my own pulse, but I'm pretty sure this number is way off.  I do wonder if it's an irregular heartbeat, will get that checked at my next medical appointment.

Breakfast:  Meijer extra sharp cheddar, coffee

 


Again.  No cacao butter today.  I should check to see if there is a weight difference between the block and the pre-sliced, they are priced the same.

Lunch:  2 eggs over medium, mashed potatoes, 2 Meijer sausage patties

 


Again.

Dinner:  Leftover oven cheeseburger w/mustard, guacamole, jalapenos, Long Road lavender lemonade 

 


Giving up on what's left of my unopened wine.  I'll take the L and stick to buying beer in the future.  I have a few of these Long Road cocktails left from the basket I won last year, may as well drink them up too.

 


And the capper, chocolate chip cookies and whole milk. 

Exercise:  Nope.  Brrr.  Need to get going, vacation in < 7 weeks and must be in walking shape.

101.0

Dollars Spent / Consecutive Days:  $ 0.00 / 22 

Honestly it's kinda nice not going to the grocery store.
