Had to wake up early.

.

.

Way early.  I went to bed around 11:00, got awaken at around 16:00?  Gosh, I can't really be sure.  Either that, or close to it, or nearly 17:00.  Anyway... Finally, I did wake.  Several calls, which I heard but wires weren't crossing.  Two calls in a row, which would normally rouse me, but not today.  Then... rocks and snow balls.  I was beginning to dream that a snow man got the wrong house, or was trying to indicate odd medical problems?  :p

Nope.  I put someone in charge of selling the car.  He got it cleaned up, took pictures, and posted it.  He got hits quickly.  One we checked out this afternoon.  No go.  They saw what it was listed for, and thought asking half was polite.  No.  It wasn't.  And, no deal.  You sort of expect that though.  There are going to be people who ask for things for free.  No shame, none whatsoever.

Anyway.  While in town, I got to the bank and store.  Groceries, nearly enough for the month.  A very peculiar thing?  93% lean is less expensive than 85% lean, at this point!  Yea, it is this government screwing with prices.  And probably, by the sounds of it, trying to put beef producers out of business.  Just as likely to take over the industry.  Of course, all beef is excessively expensive.  Except what is on sale.  The steak on sale, this time, was porter house.  They call them t-bones at times.  And there is a difference, but these, to me, looked a lot more like porterhouses than t-bones.  Much larger steaks on both sides.  At $8 a pound, you know I got some.  Heck, that is only $.50 higher than chuck roasts!  Ugh.

Oh, I also bought egg whites.  Just... egg whites.  I want to see about adding more protein that way.  About an half cup of them offers 40 grams of protein, if I read rightly.  I'll have to see how to use.  The source of the idea, a body builder, drinks the stuff straight.  Muscleheads must really have an itch, or... not?  ;)  Still, I'd like to do something.  I am thinking, if I can handle it... raw or added in with other eggs, every other day or so.

I bought, mostly, enough food to last for the month, mostly.  I even found plain ground pork.  I keep looking at sausages, and they all have sugar, dextrin, maltodextrin, etc.  I... don't want that.  Yes, just... start from plain meats.  Spicing, adding herbs, and perhaps vegetables, as I desire, am able.  Some for with eggs, some in with beef.  All boiled.  Well, pork and 85% or less lean boiled.

Other than the offer that fell through tonight, there are two to deal with tomorrow.  So... he will see what he sees.  He gets a percent, of profit.  Though, with a basement.  He has incentives to want more.  We all do, save the buyer.  It would be good to walk away with a bit of cash, and no more bill.  Because ssd had been stolen, I didn't have enough to drive to visit my mother, or go to national or state parks.  So... it... mostly sat.  Just being driven, from time to time, to keep it operational.

I woke up hungry.  When I push sleep, or wakefulness, my belly can take control.  I did get a bunless burger at the Five Guys.  No fries, no soda, trying to keep it together.  But I was too hungry!  On the way home, I stopped at Wendy's.  I did get the burger in lettuce, but then got fries and a soda.  I... broke.  So HUNGRY!

Still hungry.  So, I am having one of the steaks, plus veggies.  At least I did get all keto foods.  And, enough to really hit it.  Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and butter.  These aren't the most marbled I have ever seen.  Plus, butter, lard, tallow, and a few others, help crisp the outside.  Which... yea...  Not sure I can eat the whole thing.  These are bigger than I... thought.  Wonderful.  I can always have spare, to be heated and put on a salad tomorrow.  

So... I'll try to stay awake until... 22:00 to 00:00, getting to bed so as to be available tomorrow, early if needed.  I'll set the alarm, and do my best to be up and ready for calls and such.  I will be praying.  I wouldn't have gotten into this deal if I had know ssd was going to be stolen.  It would be good to be out of it.  But... not at a crooked price.  Won't do that.

If the steak isn't enough, or is too much but I still need something else, I'll have a bit of salad.  I really am enjoying salad lately.  And will try various things with it.  Plus, those crackers?  Can have six, probably, but only use one per salad, and not even every time.  Just... an occasional treat.  Life is good.  Later.
