  • 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…

  • 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…

  • 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’…

  • 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…

  • I needed that walk after work.

    I finished work and went for a walk and tonight I decided to go for a 17.4km walk but funny enough I decided to time myself to see how much my fitness had improved and what I have found is that to do 5.8km it had gone from around 1 1/2 hours when I first…

  • End of a week, let’s hope for an uneventful one this week.

    I finished work tonight and I decided I needed to go for a long walk after dealing with a sizeable number of customers who put me in a bad mood. The most productive way I have found to deal with such emotions is to go for a long walk while listening to some music –…

  • Meh.

    Today was pretty meh, got up, logged in, worked for the day – nothing unusual, the usual flow of customers so nothing out of the ordinary. After work I went for an 11.6km walk then came back, had a shower then completed a few puzzles on the internet. I had a look at Microsoft 365…

  • I need a new pair of shoes.

    It has been almost a year, and I need to buy a new pair of shoes – the heel my right shoe is falling to pieces but keeping in mind the number of kilometres I have walked since the beginning of the year. Tomorrow (Tuesday) I’ll be going out with my siter, partner along with…

  • End of another week.

    Well, that is the end of another week and start of a new one. After finishing work my goal was to do at least 17.4km but I was hoping to do walk 23.2km but my legs were too sore and the temperature was too cold that I really needed to get home. I got home…
