Today something occured that made me re-think my strategies around money and security. 

This Mercury Rx seems to be beating everyone's ass, not just mine. That feels quite nice (LOL).

We're experiencing a slew of technical difficulties, so I haven't had a true work day since last Friday. I've been in a stellar mood, but I didn't get paid on time (GHETTO!) which made me realize too much of my money is being circulated casually. I'm serious about my security, but historically, I've been very loose fisted with money. 

I guess I'm really learning to rethink that. 

I, thankfully, am liquid enough that I can weather a brief storm. Thank God. 

Besides that, I am back to square one with my eating habits and routine. I'm realizing losing the weight, for many reasons was the easy part. I didn't have to be all that precise, just slightly less careless than I'd been in the past which was tough, but in the grand scheme of things (especially what I'm facing at the moment) extremely light work. Now, I'm tasked with walking my body through the second phase which is recomposition. That requires tremendous effort, certainly more than the half-ass job I've kind of been doing the past eight or so months, especially in regards to eating. 

I'm anxious, especially since it's quite likely I'll need a foot surgery in the coming weeks, but we'll see. 

Anyway, on being anxious: I didn't have much to log today, actually nothing.

I'm getting ready for bed now, it's been a pleasant day.

I went to the gym after work, and even after my workout the sun was still out and the air was warm. I can't remember the last time I left work and the gym and the sun was still waiting with me. 

These days, life sounds like this. 

I can't wait for Summer to truly be here again.
