Daily Comment
Today was the first at-home business day of the new year for me. As such, it was chore day.

I began the day with a blood test, which I take before every doctor's appointment (monitoring my general health/diabetes/hypothyroid, three times a year), coming up in a week.

I reworked the annual budget for the year. I've been budgeting my money for decades. The only time I didn't was when I was married (both times), although I tried. But I couldn't keep track of someone else's expenses, and neither would do it.

I find it comforting to have a budget, and, given my love of numbers (and odd relationship with money), I think it makes sense.

I also did a full grocery shopping, gassed up the car (my last vacation expense), signed and delivered a new lease on the apartment, and picked up the held mail at the post office.

I communicated with new people for new musical projects. I accepted a spot in a band that will play nine or ten gigs in 2017. I agreed to be house bass in a new open mic, and I'm seeing if I can find a time to rehearse with another new band.

I even began to chip away at the three-week backlog of TV that had been recorded while I was on vacation.

And I'm grateful for how much stuff there is still to do, having a tendency to follow the laws of inertia. I'm better off, I think, when I have stuff to do.

Diet Comment
Well, that was a lot of mixed nuts, yesterday, which means a lot of salt and also that it was not on-plan. Today I began the comeback, but think I may still have consumed too much sugar - also, I didn't drink a lot - I was unusually thirst-free.
