  • Sunday is the end of the week for me and the beginning of my weekend. Tonight I went for a 14.2km walk because it stopped raining so I thought I may as well take advantage of the good weather given that these days the weather is unpredictable resulting in days of raining without any rest…

  • I had work today which was rather uneventful which is always good – no drama, just serving customers and helping them to do what they want. After work I went for an 11.6km walk – still a little sore after the 22km walk on Tuesday but I’ve recovered pretty quickly although I did avoid the…

  • I’m at the halfway point in the year so I want to ramp up progress on reaching my goal of being below 100kg by the end of the year. Tonight I went for a 22km walk and tomorrow I set my alarm for 11:30am rather than 1:00pm which will allow me to get up, go…

  • Today I received a text message from my doctor regarding a routine blood test – I assume as a follow up to the previous two HbA1c tests to see that everything is going well. I received the message today so I followed up with the medical centre and they advisd me that it wasn’t majorly…

  • After a week of fun and excitement at work I finished at 10pm tonight, went for a walk down to the convenient store to pick up a sandwich but it was closed but I needed a walk anyway so it wasn’t a wasted outing. I finally got all the washing sorted out and it is…

  • I went for a 11.6km walk tonight – I was going to be lazy tonight but given how there could be rain for the next couple of days I decided to take advantage of the good weather to get out of the house to enjoy some fresh air and exercise. It is nice going for…

  • Went for a 11.6km walk tonight and although it was a little chilly it hasn’t gotten down to the single digits in a while – hopefully I haven’t tempted fate by talking about it but hopefully the temperature will stay at around the double digits until spring rolls around. There is a benefit to temperatures…

  • Came back from my walk tonight around an hour ago – 20km walk in total, my legs and feet are sore but I feel good knowing that I set a goal and achieved it. I’m a bit stiff in the legs but a good night sleep will allow me to recuperate and ready to work…

  • Finished the first season of Paradise and funny if there appears to be a good amount of overlap that I see with Silo and Fallout along with a few other dystopian films I’ve watched in the past. It’ll be interesting to see how it developers going into the second season how it develops particularly when…
