I awoke feeling good. The routine? Easy. The food? Already set. Can we keep this up? The 30 day desert for my gut, that was actually a cornucopia, has now passed.
Couldn’t have timed it any better, honestly; with Friday being the last day. Had an easy morning, made some scrambled eggs & added chili on top. I feel like I’m going to be eating that Chili regularly now. Perhaps with butternut squash instead, for some alternate nutrition and a bit less starchy sugar? But can’t feel guilty about this.
Stayed at work a bit extra, but I planned for it, and brought broccoli “cheddar’ soup and chili for lunch/snack. Usually when I have repetetive tasks I get antsy… but today I was calmly going through line after line of a spreadsheet ensuring dates and references in a database were correct, editing as needed. I mention that to say, my patience is even stronger now it seems?
The remainder of the day was spent, uneventfully, shopping around for Culpeper’s Complete Herbalist Guide, and looking for a pawn shop. I’m in need of an old AC adapter for something old enough not to be found in an electronic store. Came up empty handed on both counts but I digress.
I anticipated my girlfriends almond encrusted pollock for dinner for our last Whole30 meal. Looked and thought about at all the places I could choose to eat now. Most don’t seem that interesting. But I am looking forward to the french bakery we’ll go to tomorrow, and the weigh in. Even though I cheated a bit with the doctor visit.
My girlfirned was looking forward to eating something at midnight but as the nigh went on, she passed out and thought, eh, tomorrow’s fine. I was happy to see it though until our breakfast at the French Pastry shop! It’s been real fun. And I hope that I can discover what bothers my gut tomorrow and through next month.
Less journal entries in the future, more stuff about technology :x. And recipes. One more follow up maybe just for a conclusion. Until then.
