  • 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…

  • Finally the end of the week.

    Woke up this morning and went for a 8km walk a little later than my normal time but the main thing is that I got out of the house for that walk I need in the morning. I know it isn’t setting the bar very high but what I’m aspiring to is to get up…

  • Coming to the end of the week.

    Woke up this morning and went for a 10km walk and it felt really good – the weather was mild, the sun was out but it wasn’t intense so I enjoyed the warmth and there were plenty of other people out also enjoying the experience. On Sunday I’m looking forward to a good walk but…
