Derp!!!

Couple of days ago I wrote that my financial situation was a bit better than expected right now. Yeah, not so much.

I forgot to factor in the cost of the pods, which had not been charged to my account. Oops!

That charge hit the bank last night. That took the balance down to a bit less than $8k. That is still in the range I had planned on because my original calculations was for $10k for the move, which would include the cost of the actual move. 

So, I really should examine things more when it seems I am better off than I had expected. It was nagging at my subconscious even when I wrote it but just didn't stop and think.

Now I am happy I am picking up a couple of shifts. 

Need to get a serious move on and get the house ready for market. 

Woke up early this morning but I did get to bed earlier than usual last night. My average sleep time is back to 7 hours, normal for me. For a long while it was 8 hours or more. So I think it going back to 7 is a good sign. 

Today, with no other influences, I will get out and start working on things early. I expect by 9. Just the fact that I am mentally okay with that is also a good sign. For so long my tolerance was so low that I would look at things I needed to do and still put it off. Haven't gotten back to the higher tolerance without a lot of work. Past few weeks I would get quite fatigued while doing things but keep pushing myself to keep going. Then make any breaks shorter and shorter. Now I may be exhausted after doing physical labor for 8-10 hours but I can actually do it, which I could not for a long time. I was seriously afraid my health was going permanently downhill. Happy to know that's not the case. 

I think after I get to AL I will start running again. Slowly at first, of course. I think my tolerance for that will be much better in a more humid environment. I know my tolerance has been affected by the arid environment here because I have felt better during more humid days and when in the house while the swamp cooler was running. Then once I stepped outside into low humidity, I would feel fatigued almost immediately. Why? I don't know. Don't guess it really matters all that much. Could be low level bronchitis. If so, that means lower elevation will be good for me. I do love the mountains but not desert mountains. Mountains I always loved were green and in more humid areas. Germany, France, Greece, CO, MD, TN, etc.
