I have to confess that last night’s sleep was atrocious. Atrocious. Then the kids were up early. Hooray… but, again, I was fine. I’d have happily stayed asleep for another hour, or three, really, I think most parents consider sleep to be on par with gold in terms of value, but still, I was okay.

I had homemade pork cracklins for breakfast today, and I will again tomorrow… and then I’ll be all out of pig skin, but then on Tuesday I’ll be smoking bacon, so I might even think of that as an upgrade from the cracklins.

That aside, my weight continues to go down, and I feel healthy.
