  • A quiet Saturday working from home.

    A rather uneventful day today – got up out of bed, went for a small walk around the block to get some fresh air before starting work. I decided to create some chia seed pudding but using the ‘Up and Go’ protein drink (125ml of protein drink plus 50g of chia seeds) to see how…

  • The start of my weekend and holiday.

    Feels so good finishing up for the week knowing I’ve got not only Monday and Tuesday off for the weekend but also Wednesday and Thursday off as well. Today felt as if it dragged on and on as I thought about finally finishing for the week, trying to remind myself that every phone call pushes…

  • A good day in the office.

    Got up this morning at 9:30am, went for my mornign walk, came home and had a shower then watched a few YouTube videos to catch up on the news – the usual sources like Reuters, France 24, DW and a few others. The train ride into work was nice and it feels good to start…

  • A relaxing first day of the weekend.

    Had a wonderful dinner with mum and I updated her computers – she has a Chromebook and a Windows 11 PC (Beelink SER9 Pro AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370) with both of them working really reliably. It’ll be interesting to see how things improve with the Windows 11 K2 project because there are a…

  • Feels good working from home.

    Woke up this morning, did the usual thing I’ve been talking about about for the last couple of days then arrived home, had a quick breakfast, had a shower then got myself ready for a day of work. Just after I started I ended up getting a knock at the door by the courier delivering…

  • Working from home for the next three days.

    I woke up this morning, went for my 8km walk, had a shower then headed off to work – I decided to treat myself to a mexican black bean wrap for breakfast along with a flat white before work. Work today was rather uneventful and i was looking forward to getting it all finished and…

  • Start of a new week.

    Woke up this morning at 9:30am, headed out the door at 10am and went for my 8km walk – it felt good getting back into a routine again. I arrived back home and jumped onto my computer to see whether Google had release a Chrome update which they had – upgrading it from 148.0.7778.97 to…

  • A productive day off from work.

    Woke up this morning, had some breakfast then I walked down to the Petone mail centre to pick up my passport. I had organised a replacement because it expired at the beginning of this year so I was surprised when on Friday last week there was a ‘card to collect’ left by the courier because…

  • Back to work on Friday.

    I’ve had a couple of days to recover and I’m feeling a whole lot better – I was able to keep myself occupied by vacuum cleaning the house, cleaned the kitchen, went for a walk while the weather was fine so I could get some fresh air and then finished it all up with having…

  • It was a good day today.

    I woke up this morning and spent my day just relaxing around the home watching some YouTube videos on the television and then I decided to head down the road to do some grocery shopping. While I was down there I needed to pick up some ointment because I have dry cracking heels (I’ve applied…
