Collected Buckets of Water, Math App Approved

12:09 PM (of Friday, August 14th, 2026)

Today is Thursday, August 13th, 2026, and my math app was approved today. Mental Math Champion was finally approved to the iOS App Store earlier this morning. It was approved to the Android Play Store a week or two ago, but it still has zero downloads for some reason. I’m not able to find Mental Math Champion on the iOS App Store as of this moment either and maybe the same thing happens in the Android Play Store. It doesn't matter what I search for, or if I scroll all the way down, I can't find my own app.

The approval email did say that it may take 24 hours to propagate, but it's been over 24 hours since that email and I still can't find it. I'm holding off on marketing until I can search for it.

The water also came back on this morning. Right now it's a very strong current when I open up the faucet. Last night I took that opportunity to fill up large buckets with water. I apparently just had a bunch of containers in one of my closets, containers for storage, but people here usually fill them up with water. I filled one up with water, it was able to hold 12 gallons or so, and I filled up this large bucket, it can hold more than 12 gallons, but I think I only put in 12 gallons there.

Now I'm a lot more secure with the water. I have 24 extra gallons of water, doubling the current total amount I have in storage. That'll give me an additional 8 or so extra flushes. Yeah 24 gallons of water can only get me 8 extra flushes. It's a significant amount of water though, that I can likely use for other purposes.

Anyway I was also working on a weight loss app and that is basically done today. I have everything completed except for implementing the premium features. I should be able to submit it to the app stores tomorrow (Friday, today, as of when I'm writing this) if everything goes well. That's the plan anyway.
