Getting closer to spring.

Finished work tonight at 10pm and went for my walk – temperature outside was 13°C so it wasn’t uncomfortably cold and apart from a bit of drizzle I went for a 17.4km walk tonight where I completed it in around 2 hours and 40 minutes. I like to keep track of the speed I walk…
Not today Satan.

Work today was uneventful apart from one particular customer who refused to listen to an explanation I gave – at some point you have to say ‘not today satan’ and end the call. If you’re unable to accept something after having explained to you 3 times then the problem can be found in the mirror…
Back to work on Wednesday.

I had a good sleep in today and then went to mum’s place for dinner along with picking up some groceries for the next couple of weeks. For the last couple of weeks I have fallen out of a routine so I’m happy to get back into a routine tomorrow – got some extra fibre…
A relaxing day at home.

I love having a weekend that is zero drama and doesn’t require me to do anything more than the bare minimum. I went for a long walk last night and then came back had a small nap then woke up, went down to the supermarket to pick up a few items then came back home…
Thank god that day is over.

Thank goodness that day is over – having to deal with a customer who blames us for their screw up and yes I understand a person can be frustrated but when you’re a fully grown adult you should be able to first take responsibility for your screw up and secondly to control the ‘big feelings’…
Raining then not raining then raining again.

Another day in paradise – working from home then as I am able to finish my shift it starts raining then it stops then it starts again and then it stops. Long story short I decided I wasn’t going to go for a walk and tempt fate so I decided to stay at home and…
Deprogramming takes time, be patient.

I was watching the following video on YouTube regarding food banks and there are people who take it upon themselves to punch down on those who need help. This punching down comes with the usual blaming decisions people have made as if everything bad that happens is purely the result of the decisions made in…
An interesting day to day.

Rather uneventful day at work followed by a brisk walk – I decided to have a shorter walk tonight because I wasn’t in the mood for a longer one but I always like to make sure that I get out of the house and get some exercise after sitting on my backside all day. Anyway,…
Maybe there is something more to the nVidia-Intel alliance.

Finished work tonight and went for a walk – it felt good that the weather is finally getting warmer with the temperature at 12°C and during the day it was around 16°C. It is great that the weather isn’t too hot or too cold so I’ll enjoy the Spring weather until summer comes but then…
Back into the groove of things on Wednesday.

It has been raining heavily for the last couple of days so I haven’t been able to get out of the house to go for my nightly walks but I have enjoyed being able to relax. It is good to having a balance of exercise but also enjoying days when you can relax. Apple has…
