  • Second day getting back on track.

    Second day getting back on track – went for a walk tonight, set a goal of completing it in under 2 hours and I arrived back home in 1 hour and 50 minutes. I like to set a goal for myself so then I keep up a good pace and when I get home I…

  • Back into the swing of things.

    I finally got motivated to get back into going for a walk – first day back after a week of not exercising and I was expecting the worst but actually I came back, completed the 11.6km in under 2 hours and I don’t feel sore or stiff which is a good sign. I was expecting…

  • End of the first day.

    Well, I was able to finish an hour early which was nice but I was hoping to be able to go for a walk tonight, getting back into a good routine, but alas it is raining outside. On a good side though I stuck to my diet plan for today so it isn’t as though…

  • Back to work on Wednesday.

    Today was a pretty quiet day – I went to bed last night at around 2am and then woke up at around 1pm on Tuesday – a solid whole night of sleep and felt pretty good when I woke up. I then headed to mum’s for dinner and picked up a few items from the…

  • So what was it all for in the end?

    Well, it appears that eight Democrats collapsed like a cheap lawn chair and agreed to reopen government with the last-minute agreement – and the base is livid. What was the shutdown for if you’re not going to force the Republican part to either a) force the Republicans to make a compromise by reversing the cuts…

  • Thank goodness the weekend has started.

    Finished work early tonight at 7:30pm then I walked down to the supermarket and back again – there is a bus service but I would have had to wait as long as it took to walk down to the supermarket so I thought I may as well get back into a good routine by walking…

  • Early finish tomorrow.

    Final day of the week on Sunday with the added benefit that due to doing 2 1/2 hours worth of work on Friday I get to go home early on Sunday so I’ll be knocking off at 7:30pm. I’m probably going to head down to the supermarket afterwork because I need to purchase some butter…

  • Well, that was interesting.

    I got up this morning, started my day as usual, logged myself and it wasn’t until 4pm when I saw that my schedule hadn’t been loaded on Playvox so I asked my boss who then checked with the WFM team – it appears that since I worked on Tuesday I got to have my day…

  • Getting back into a good schedule.

    I start work at 1:30pm but I set my alarm to 12:45pm however what I have been doing is pulling back the time I go to sleep so that when I get up in the morning I have more time before I start working. Before I went to sleep I went to bed at 3:00am…

  • Getting back into regular order tomorrow.

    The last couple of days it has been a bit chaotic with work, weather, people letting off fireworks not to mention my routine got all out of order but now that things have settled down tomorrow will be a reboot back into a good routine and with that hopefully things will get back normal again.…
