  • 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…

  • Things are getting better.

    I don’t know what happened today but the day actually pretty good. Most of the time when I am work I am going through the motions and just wanting the whole day to end so I can do something other than working but today something felt different. I got up at 9;30am this morning, left…

  • A productive day at work.

    I got up at 9:30am this morning and left home at around 9:45am which allowed me plenty of time after I came home to relax, cool down, watch some news on YouTube and then jump into the shower to get prepared for the day. Went into the office today for my second mandatory day in…

  • A good day back at work.

    Today was a good day, I woke up at 9:30am and left home for my morning walk at 9:45am, back in around 1 hour and 20 minutes, cooled down, had a shower, got dressed adn then headed out to catch the train into work. I had a great night sleep and it is funny how…
