  • Off to work.

    Woke up before my alarm went off this morning, went for a 5.8km walk, showered and I’m relaxing before leaving home to go to work. I haven’t got the test results back but I’m hoping that if it is below 40 then I’ll be happy although I have a bit of work to do because…

  • One day down, four more to go.

    I woke up this morning and my foot was feeling a bit better – I think what I need is some heel balm because the cracks in my heel can be painful at times. This morning I decided to work from home so I went for an 11.6km walk, came home, freshened up and then…

  • Returning to work.

    Getting ready to go back to working, did some washing however I couldn’t go for a walk today because I have sore feed – there is a crack at at the back of my heel and it hurts when walking on it, the skin is dry and cracking so I wonder if that has something…

  • A productive day.

    Woke up at 11am, got dressed and then headed down to the blood testing lab for a blood and urine test – just the usual testing to make sure everything is on track and that there aren’t any sort of issues regarding my blood sugar. I think I’ll be all good but my main focus…

  • Getting ready for Monday.

    After work tonight I went for a 13.8km walk with a total of 21.8km walked today – feeling good and no sore feet which is a small achievement. I got a message from my doctor about having a blood test and I’ve been putting it off but the continued pestering I thought I may as…

  • Almost there.

    Today has been good, work hasn’t been too busy and very little drama and hopefully that’ll carry over to the rest of the shift – fingers crossed. I checked for updates for Chrome only to find that there has been an update pushed out to address a pretty serious security issue (link) so if you…

  • One more day to go.

    Today I got up at 11am and decided that rather than go for my usual 5.8km walk that I would go for an 8km walk before work.- it felt good pushig myself to go a little further and I love the feeling of the warm sun before midday along with the cool breeze. I was…

  • Looking forward to Saturday.

    I was hoping to get some exercise in on Friday but it has been raining all day but if everything goes according to plan I’ll get getting up at 11am on Saturday and go for a walk – I might even go for an 8km walk since I’ll have some extra time up my sleeve.…

  • Start of a new day.

    Woke up this morning before the alarm and I had a look outside thinking “ooh, the weather is looking good for a walk today” and now it has suddenly started to rain. I have to remember next time not to excited about the possibility of good weather because all to often it starts to rain.…

  • Back home from work.

    Back home from work and I decided that tonight I’ll have a night off because I had some exercise this morning and kept to my meal plan for today. The train ride back from work was good – I’m not too sure whether it is just me but I’ve noticed that the speed of the…
