Balancing / Imbalance [housekeepery, kind of]

I still balance my checkbook by hand, or at least cross-check my analog checkbook register against my bank and credit card statements on a regular basis. Because reasons, I decided to work on that yesterday. The previous time I had updated my checkbook register was back in March. So THAT project took a long while. I don't like falling behind on that project, so I mostly feel a sense of relief over getting caught up so that I know how much money is currently in my possession and where I've been spending it.

There are storms blowing in today, so the barometric pressure changes are doing obnoxious things to my sinuses, making it even harder to work up the energy and focus to grade papers. I do not like this pony ride one bit.
