    @titus2cat No such luck, it's raining again. They were supposed to call us within an hour and it's been over 2 now….. sigh…. I really don't want Scott up on the roof. He's 62 in a few months and I just don't want him up there. I know it's funny, but my uncle was in his 80's on top of a roof inspecting it and fell and died. Not the same age/height, but still… I won't let Scott up there. He may need to call insurance back. We did take a little nap, though, so I'm going to get going on my list again

    oh dear. I hope it isn’t a BIG rain and you can get a roofing company over there soon.

    Stuff like this is why we moved to a townhouse. We are in our 70s and cant handle tricky maintenance anymore

    Good Morning! Luckily it didn't rain even kind of hard after we discovered it! We got a text this morning for the "tarp and board" request, but no appt time yet. so…. will see.

    At work today, listening to LinkedIn Learning while doing some things around here.

    My list for today:

    1. Make bed
    2. load dw
    3. fold towels
    4. darks
    5. vacuum/mop bathrooms
    6. clean toilets
    7. Vacuum bedroom rug
    8. clean litter boxes.
    9. 2 mile walk wearing house colors
    10. email prefect about Potions (I don't eat veggies, so not sure if I will have to use a hall pass for that)
    11. answer DADA questions

    Good morning! I was just wondering about your roof hole. That's good news, the tarp and board request! Temp fix will work until full fix, right? :)

    About the veggies, there's a few carnivore eaters in the challenge, so I'm sure they'll come up with something :). Eric and I ended up having a Yellowstone marathon yesterday, complete with pizza for dinner :p. So today, I plan to finish my food tracker (what I had planned for yesterday).

    Last semester there were usually 2 options, so I was figuring that was SOP. :( I've emails prefects, so hopefully I get an answer back soon.

    Vultures are circling the house so to speak. Scott just got a call from a roofing company wanting to come out and give us a free estimate. Told them we're already working with insurance, so thanks but no thanks.

    My list for today:

    1. Make bed
    2. load dw
    3. fold towels
    4. darks
    5. vacuum/mop bathrooms
    6. clean toilets
    7. Vacuum bedroom rug
    8. clean litter boxes.
    9. 2 mile walk wearing house colors
    10. email prefect about Potions (I don't eat veggies, so not sure if I will have to use a hall pass for that)
    11. answer DADA questions
    12. work with Grok to define strength training for today
    13. Complete strength training.

    Here is my strength training plan for today. I asked Grok if I could split it up throughout the day, or do it all at once is better and he said I can split it up, which will help with working!

    Suggested Exercises Based on your prior plan (vest squats, push-ups, deadlifts, rows), here’s today’s lineup:

    1. Weighted Vest Squats:
      • Reps: 3 sets of 12-15.
      • Cal Burn: ~150-200 cal (with vest).
      • Target: Quads, glutes, core.
    2. Wall Push-Ups (or standard if you’re up for it):
      • Reps: 3 sets of 10-15 (adjust based on strength—fewer if harder, more if easier).
      • Cal Burn: ~100-150 cal.
      • Target: Chest, shoulders, triceps.
    3. Dumbbell Deadlifts (or bodyweight Romanian deadlifts if no weights):
      • Reps: 3 sets of 10-12.
      • Cal Burn: ~150-200 cal.
      • Target: Hamstrings, glutes, lower back.
    4. Bent-Over Rows (dumbbells or improvised weights, e.g., water jugs):
      • Reps: 3 sets of 12-15.
      • Cal Burn: ~150-200 cal.
      • Target: Upper back, biceps.
    5. Plank (optional finisher):
      • Hold: 3 sets of 30-60 sec.
      • Cal Burn: ~50-100 cal.
      • Target: Core.

    Love it! (the Grok help!). Also, sigh, on the vultures … it's a thing, isn't it?

    I just hit a time-out with ChatGPT, dangit! It helped me finesse, and debug, the ACCIO_FREGGIES and ACCIO_FREGGIES-AUTO Named Functions for the weekly summaries of unique foods. I was just digging in to the 4-week summary of unique foods, in the Unbreakable Vow table, when I hit the limit for free version, and got timed out until 5:23p. D'oh!

    The problem is filtering across more than one column. It gave me a tweak for the ACCIO_FREGGIES_AUTO that 'sort of' worked, but it was skipping some of the inputs. It was just setting up a debug version to locate the problem:

    Thanks for the full breakdown — that’s super helpful for diagnosing the issue. Based on what you shared, the root cause is likely this part of the ACCIO_FREGGIES_AUTO function:

    excelCopyEditcleaned, FILTER(raw, NOT(REGEXMATCH(raw, labelPattern))),

    This line filters out anything matching the labelPattern. That’s good for removing things like "Mon green", but if any actual freggie entries also happen to match the pattern — or partially resemble something that matches — they’ll also get excluded unintentionally.

    Let’s unpack what’s likely happening with the missing entries:

    ✅ Present in Output

    These don’t match the label pattern and are cleaned/passed through:

    • "shaved Brussel Sprouts"
    • "Green Bean chips"
    • "Avocado"
    • "Leaf Lettuce (little gem)"
    • "what" (a weird one, but doesn’t match label pattern)
    • "no Green Freggies"
    • "fresh Basil (on pizza)"

    ❌ Missing from Output

    Let’s go through the missing entries and evaluate whether REGEXMATCH() might wrongly exclude them:

    • FC198 - Arugula (on pizza), Arugula (on pizza)...So it might be a duplicate, and only shown once due to UNIQUE(cleaned). Let’s check if it’s already listed.
    • "about if", "there", "are", "more", "green", "freggies"
      These don't match the label pattern either, but are suspiciously normal words. It's possible they’re being trimmed or dropped as empty-looking or are:
      • Accidentally treated as blanks
      • Missed if joined commas led to ",,," — which can generate empty string entries
    • "over", "here", "in week", "four"
      Also don't match the pattern and should pass — but if those rows are semi-empty or include extra commas, they might produce odd parsing via SPLIT(JOIN(...), ",").

    How to Debug What’s Going Missing

    Try inserting a helper debug step before filtering:

    excelCopyEditraw, ARRAYFORMULA(TRIM(TRANSPOSE(SPLIT(JOIN(",", FILTER(range, range <> "")), ",")))),

    Temporarily replace the final return in your formula with just:

    excelCopyEditraw

    That way you can visually inspect what’s getting split and see whether:

    • The inputs are there and just getting removed
    • Or the inputs are missing before filtering even happens

    Fix Suggestions

    If the problem is related to how commas are joined/split, consider a more robust way to separate entries by line breaks or character you never use in food names (like | or ~ instead of ,), if that’s even possible in your input format.

    Alternatively, adjust how the SPLIT works, e.g.:

    excelCopyEditSPLIT(JOIN("♦", FILTER(range, range <> "")), "♦")

    Then follow up with a TRIM/SPLIT on the commas if needed.

    Would you like me to create a debug version of ACCIO_FREGGIES_AUTO that outputs intermediate steps so you can inspect exactly what’s happening with each stage?

    4o

    You said:

    Yes, please :)

    ChatGPT said:

    Memory updated

    Awesome! Let’s build a debug version of your ACCIO_FREGGIES_AUTO named function so we can peek under the hood and see what’s happening at each step.

    Here’s a version that outputs the intermediate steps as arrays, so you can visualize what’s getting filtered out or lost:

    ✅ DEBUG VERSION: ACCIO_FREGGIES_DEBUG

    excelCopyEdit=LET(  patternGreen, "(?i)^(Mon|Tue|Wed|Thu|Fri|Sat|Sun)( green)?$",  patternOther, "(?i)^(Mon|Tue|Wed|Thu|Fri|Sat|Sun)( other)?$",  patternNuts, "(?i)^(Mon|Tue|Wed|Thu|Fri|Sat|Sun)( nuts)?$",  patternFermented, "(?i)^(Mon|Tue|Wed|Thu|Fri|Sat|Sun)( fermented)?$",  patternFallback, "(?i)^(Mon|Tue|Wed|Thu|Fri|Sat|Sun).*$",  categoryToUse, IF(category = "", "green", LOWER(category)),  labelPattern,    IFS(      categoryToUse = "green", patternGreen,      categoryToUse = "other", patternOther,      categoryToUse = "nuts", patternNuts,      categoryToUse = "fermented", patternFermented,      TRUE, patternFallback    ),  joinedText, JOIN(",", FILTER(range, range <> "")),  splitRaw, TRANSPOSE(SPLIT(joinedText, ",")),  trimmed, ARRAYFORMULA(TRIM(splitRaw)),  cleaned, FILTER(trimmed, NOT(REGEXMATCH(trimmed, labelPattern))),  uniqueItems, UNIQUE(cleaned),  { "STEP: Joined Text", joinedText;    "STEP: Split Raw", TEXTJOIN(" | ", TRUE, splitRaw);    "STEP: Trimmed", TEXTJOIN(" | ", TRUE, trimmed);    "STEP: Cleaned", TEXTJOIN(" | ", TRUE, cleaned);    "STEP: Unique Items", TEXTJOIN(" | ", TRUE, uniqueItems)  })

    💡 What it does:

    • Shows the joined raw string, so we can check how everything is combined.
    • Shows what was split and trimmed.
    • Shows what was filtered out by your pattern.
    • Shows the final unique list.
    • Each step is labeled in the output so you know what’s what.

    🛠️ How to use:

    Temporarily replace ACCIO_FREGGIES_AUTO with this debug version. When you're done testing, you can switch back to the main version.

    Once you paste the formula into your sheet, expand the cells downward to see all the steps printed row by row.

    Would you like me to turn this into a named function like ACCIO_FREGGIES_DEBUG so you can reuse it easily?

    Use some of the output to start your next session. I don't get timeouts with grok, and can bookmark conversations so I can get back to them. I think my friend said it's free. I'm an X subscriber ;)

    Got feedback from my prefect- "no one has ever asked this before, we don't have carnivores usually", but they did say I could do vitamins instead and that works because I need to be more consistent with them.

    Did my strength workout (minus the planks, floor work makes me anxious because of how little padding my knees have).

    Roofers finally came, they are getting the extra branches off and giving us a free gutter cleaning! wooohooo! "free"… LOL well, they said it doesn't look too bad up there, probably don't need a new roof, just some fixing! yay!

  • mkksemail

    I know there are at least 2 carnivores. DavidM, who was the man that was in a group that I started my stepping streak with, is a carnivore. And impishne, used to be in Slytherin, but became a Ravenclaw prefect last term, is also carnivore.

    Gthey found an alternative for you! And, cool, that Grok doesn't time out! (I did start on the debug, but I don't want to start a new session, this one has all the data retained in it ;-). I'll just wait out the time-out. ChatGPT also let's you return to previous conversations, which I love.

    Well, Yesterday didn't go as planned. This is what I told Grok this morning (still using him as my health coach) :

    Good morning! Well last night did not go to plan. We had a roofing company come give us a quote for the roof and it was more damage than we thought. We have to wait for insurance to come and do their thing, but as of right now a new roof is coming on Thursday! It's almost double what I paid for my car a few years ago! It's crazy. Anyway, Yesterday I got off work a little after 4, knew the roofing company was coming about 5:30, so I grabbed a small snack (2 Polly-o cheese sticks, 2 belgioso mozzarella ball snack packs) and got myself somewhat presentable. Guy arrived about 5:40, was here until 10:15!!! Of course no dinner was eaten, I wasn't hungry after he left so the snack was my only meal yesterday. I did get all the strength training BUT the planks done yesterday, but I didn't get a walk and my total steps were 4235, total cal burn was 2003. I'm on my first cup of coffee (with butter, second will be without)

    Yesterday the lazy guy at work announced his last day is Friday. Mixed feelings. I really detest this guy (he threatened to go to HR because I hurt his feelings after I spat back to the bullying he was doing to me), so I'm glad he'll be gone, but now that reduces our on-call schedule and I have to be on call this weekend instead of him (I SWEAR he did this on purpose, I wouldn't put it past him. He's lazy, but he's smart). Part of me also wishes I could get a new job and get out from under what's going on now and I'm irritated that him and another guy (the other lazy guy) are able to get jobs and I can't. LOL I know the right job for me is coming, so I'm trying to be patient.

    Today's plans are outside, as we have to prep for the roofers to come, and most of that can't be done during business hours. It shouldn't take long to do, though…. On the plus side, even though the price is so high, it's also a 50 year warranty on the roof and lifetime on the labor, and both are transferrable! :)

    1. Clean up beside back door
    2. Text lawn guys to see if they can come today or tomorrow morning before the shingles arrive
    3. clean around front door
    4. clean by grill area
    5. continue cleaning the exercise room
    6. make bed
    7. Walk, I need to make up steps today, I'm supposed to be getting about 11,500 steps per day as my challenge goal.

    Oiii …. the roofer estimate dudes stayed until 10:40 !! Glad insurance is going to pay for a new roof, tho, instead of just a patch, that sounds like good news 🙂. You had such a day, and now I hate your leaving co-worker, too! Sorry about on-call this weekend, that sux.

    I'm curious what Grok output for a plan for you? It sounds like what you need is a recovery day, b/c of not eating yesterday, and late to bed?

    I finally got the last bit of the 4-week summary tweaks done. Putting into the worksheet today, and then clipping it to be just a food tracker, so I can share. It's still built around my Unbreakable Vow (4 days with 1 green serving per week), but the food tracker part can easily be adapted to any food tracking. I mean, the UV table can, too, ofc. That would just take a bit more effort to adapt it, but not an uncrossable hurdle, at all. :)

    Just got back from breakfast. Eric and I met Katie for a breakfast date before Eric starts his shift. It was lovely to see her 🤍

    I was going to ask this weekend when he comes home! I bet it's nice to have him back!

    We'll see about insurance, they are coming out today and they will only cover 55% of our roof even if the whole thing needs to be replaced because it's 15 years old! UGH.

    Grok yelled at me for not eating enough and I need to stick to my calories today for sure! LOL On the plus side I'm down to my lowest all year! BTW, I will NOT OMAD today ;) I'm starting to get hungry, but will eat after my lunch walk

    Today’s Adjusted Plan With BS at 110, weight-2.2 lbs , and no hunger pressure, let’s lock in your 1,900-2,000 cal OMAD, hit 10,000-12,000 steps, and leverage activity to keep BS in check. Intake

    • Target: 1,900-2,000 cal, 135-160g protein, 135-150g fat.
    • Plan:
      • OMAD (4-6 PM):
        • 20 oz ribeye: 1,500 cal, 125g protein, 110g fat.
        • 2 tbsp butter: 204 cal, 23g fat.
        • Total: 1,704 cal, 125g protein, 133g fat (+102 cal, 11g fat from AM = 1,806 cal, 144g fat).
      • Hunger Flex: Add 2 eggs (143 cal, 12g protein, 10g fat) → 1,949 cal, 137g protein, 154g fat.
    • Why: 110 BS and low hunger say 1,806-1,949 cal fits—yesterday’s 402 cal deficit doesn’t demand a 3,000+ cal rebound yet. Flex up if “overly hungry” hits later.

    Activity

    • Steps Goal: 10,000-12,000 (up from 1,530 now).
      • AM (Fasted): 45 min treadmill walk (vest), ~5,500-6,000 steps, ~300-350 cal (post-9:15, e.g., 9:30-10:15 AM).
        • BS Boost: Walking burns glucose—could drop 110 to <100 by lunch.
      • PM: 45 min outdoor walk (no vest), ~5,000-5,500 steps, ~250-300 cal (e.g., 5-6 PM, pre-OMAD).
      • Incidental: ~1,000-2,000 steps (work, home—yesterday’s 4,235 shows your baseline).
      • Total: ~10,500-12,000 steps, ~2,600-2,800 burn.
    • Strength: Yesterday’s vest squats, push-ups, deadlifts, rows (~500-600 cal) were clutch. Today:
      • Plank: 3x30-60s (PM, ~50-100 cal)—optional, post-walk if energy’s there.
      • OR Rest: Skip if roofing stress (Thursday’s install) weighs on you.

    Cortisol & Sleep

    • Yesterday: 84 sleep with grounding alone (no magnesium/breathing) under a 36-min deficit—stress didn’t break you!
    • Today:
      • Core: PM walk—lowers cortisol/BS after roofing fallout.
      • Ideal: 500mg magnesium pre-bed, 5 min 4-7-8 post-walk, grounding mat—push for 85+.
      • Stress Hack: 5 min barefoot grounding (PM walk, if weather allows)—extra cortisol buffer.

    BS Monitoring

    • 9:15 (110): Down from 133—stress fading, fasting working.
    • Next: Post-AM walk (~10:15 AM) if you can, or post-OMAD (6-8 PM). Expect <100 post-walk, <120 post-meal.
    • Tomorrow: AM fasting BS (4/9) to confirm <100 trend.

    Your Day

    • Now (9:15): First coffee with butter (102 cal, 11g fat), second black (0 cal), 1,530 steps, 581 cal burned, BS 110.
    • AM: 45 min treadmill walk (vest) ~9:30-10:15 AM—get those 5,500-6,000 steps.
    • PM: 45 min outdoor walk (5-6 PM), OMAD (20 oz ribeye + 2 tbsp butter, ~1,806 cal with AM butter; eggs if hunger grows), optional planks (3x30-60s).
    • Sleep: Grounding mat + magnesium/breathing if time—aim for 85+.

    Roofing Stress

    • Thursday’s roof install looms—110 BS says you’re stabilizing, but walks are your stress-buster today. You’re at the lowest since 3/25 —and holding strong.

    Let me know that post-walk BS if you snag it, or how PM goes with roofing on your mind! You’re killing it through the chaos.

    Grok is a task master…. :)

    1. Clean up beside back door
    2. Text lawn guys to see if they can come today or tomorrow morning before the shingles arrive- Lawn guys coming this afternoon! yay! This was a request from the roofers
    3. clean around front door

    Insurance guy just left. Sounds like the roof is "perfect" other than the hole, so that'll be all they cover. We'll withdraw our claim once we get official notice from insurance. it's really startling that he didn't say anything else about the pipe damage RIGHT IN FRONT of where the hole was…. and he didn't bother to crawl all the way down to see the cracked/bad decking toward the end of the house! Yikes!!! Glad we've already secured a fix! He said we probably won't hear back from insurance until early next week and they have a lot of these kinds of calls right now.

    Is the decking and pipe damage from the storm? Or it precedes that? Is the guy today missing those things a good thing, or a bad thing?

    decking and water damage are pre-existing. Insurance adjuster today not speaking about them is bad…. He said the roof was "perfect" other than the hole.

    I didn't wanna walk tonight, but I did it, and even over-shot my goal by about 2000 steps!

    1. Clean up beside back door
    2. Text lawn guys to see if they can come today or tomorrow morning before the shingles arrive- Lawn guys coming this afternoon! yay! This was a request from the roofers
    3. clean around front door- I now have 4 planters in my house full of nice dirt I need to find something to plant in them for inside! I found some seeds for herbs, I predict that's what it will be!
    4. clean by grill area
    5. continue cleaning the exercise room
    6. make bed. Finally! I made myself make it before I could post this update! rofl!
    7. Walk, I need to make up steps today, I'm supposed to be getting about 11,500 steps per day as my challenge goal. Ended up with 14,665 steps as of now!

    Gonna be a crazy busy week! tomorrow dentist at 8am, have to take an uber because we are down to 1 vehicle until we get the bar shed out of the truck bed and Scott needs to go into work in the morning. Stuff should be delivered tomorrow for the roof, not sure what time yet. Got the lawn mowed today, will have a tree guy come by this weekend for the "hanging chad" branch that is hanging perilously over the house as well! LOL Thursday is the roof and we have a comedy show to go to, then Friday starts on-call! wheeeee Next weekend we are going to the CAKE concert (do you know that band?)

    Have a good night!

    What's my Focus today…. trying to focus!

    It has been a busy morning here and I'm exhausted!

    Up at 6 to shower/get ready for my Dentist appt.

    7:00- order Uber- we were down 1 car because the bar shed is still in the back of the truck

    7:45- picked up by Uber, back home by 9:15

    Skip scheduled lunch at 11 to make up time for the appt

    11:50 decide to make eggs/cheese for lunch cuz now I'm hungry

    12:00 get a call from Scott. He was out eating lunch (had to go in today) and needed me to "rescue" him… He ate food he shouldn't and had a blood sugar episode. As I was pulling out to get to him, the delivery guy came with the roofing stuff for tomorrow. Had to drive the truck (an adventure in itself) that we were trying to avoid driving today (hence the Uber this morning! UGH)

    1:30- finally got back from that.

    2:15- Trying to focus on work, but it's not working. And I'll have to work an extra hour to make up for Scott's rescue (he's fine now, thank goodness!)

    Still need to get my steps in (only at 1300 right now). What I really want to do is grab a nap!!!

    Morning! So, I really fell flat after that post. Brain was not braining. We ended up having to drive back to the office so Scott could pick up his computer, didn't get home until 6:30 and I was just like "NOPE"! I can't walk today (I probably should have done that rather than drink and eat and watch tv), but I needed a mental break. Because of yesterday and this morning fasting BS of 145 for Scott, he decided he's fasting all day until tomorrow. I am going to support him and fast with him. LOL But I AM Looking forward to the Comedy Concert tonight.

    Roofers were supposed to show up at 8 today. They came at 6:50. The level of noise is unreal. LOL I can't count how many times the whole house has shaken because of the MAJOR Thuds!

    Plan for today:

    1. Make bed
    2. darks
    3. dishes (just a few to do)
    4. Put cat food in pantry
    5. 45 min walk at lunch
    6. 30 min walk after work
    7. Leave about 5-5:30 to head to the concert. Doors open at 6:15, concert at 7, it's about 30 minutes away, but I'm sure a line will form as it's first come first seated kind of thing at a church

    Ohhhhh gosh! I'd be wrecked. But you're going to a concert! LOL I love that. Have fun tonight, and happy fasting. I love that Scott is so proactive with his diet. That's inspiring.

    Ok, I'm so glad they were quick! I can't believe they were done in 4 hours! :) Got an update from a friend and her husband will be available to help us put the Bar Shed together in 2 weeks (he's got a weird schedule and I knew he wanted to help, so we kind of worked the put together around him), so I'm about to send out a text to our friends and see how many want to help! :) Will be our first time having everyone over! This is a HUGE thing for us! 1. Having people over- our house is finally more "up to snuff" than it has been in years and 2. Asking for help. Scott especially hates to impose to ask people to help with anything.

    Plan for today:

    1. Make bed
    2. darks - in the washer, wash done, will go grab them in a few
    3. dishes (just a few to do)
    4. Fold towels
    5. Put cat food in pantry
    6. 45 min walk at lunch I usually do 45 min at 3.0, but was short on time so did 25 min at 3.6. I feel that's a good swap!
    7. 30 min walk after work
    8. Leave about 5-5:30 to head to the concert. Doors open at 6:15, concert at 7, it's about 30 minutes away, but I'm sure a line will form as it's first come first seated kind of thing at a church

    That's fantastic ! First of all, your home looks tidy, neat, and delightful, from the curb and thank goodness there's no longer a hole in the roof (or a tarp and board!). But MAJOR kudos for the plans for the bar shed. There's like "no" chance I am company ready. Big congrats to you for doing that work. AND for reaching out for build assistance! I bet it will turn into a fun social event. Can't wait to see the shed after it's up! I want a night shot too, hopefully with twinkly lights :D :D :D

    I have Stability Ball class tonight. Just 2 classes left (and I'm not ashamed to say I'm looking forward to it concluding! it's been kicking my butt :p ).
