  • The third day completed, one more day to go.

    One more day to go and then I’m on my weekend. This week has had a lot better vibe to it that last week and I’m unsure as to why other than I’ve gotten into a good routine outside of work which maybe makes me feel a lot better when I am at work. I…

  • The third day completed, feeling good.

    I’m on my third day and stuck to my plan for the day and I have to admit the lazy side of my is, “oh god, do I have to keep doing this” but I know that after I’ve done this for a month that it’ll become something that I do without even thinking about…

  • Feeling good so far.

    At the half way point of my shift but I am feeling good – third day of getting back on track. I have to admit, the first few days were pretty difficult but on the third day I’m feeling pretty good and I’m sure that as the days turn into weeks and weeks turn into…

  • The second day completed, feeling good.

    It’s the end of the second day of getting back on track again – I stuck to my diet plan today, did some free weights before work, on my breaks and after work, then I went for an 11.6km walk tonight and although there were a few drops of rain it quickly stopped. I was…

  • A lovely day so far.

    It has been a lovely day so far – nice weather, the neighbourhood is quiet although that will change once the kids go back to school. There are two schools nearby and they’re doing some building improvements – nothing major, just regular maintenance but is good to see that the government is finally making the…

  • Keep your eye on the prize.

    Back to work on Wednesday which was uneventful although I had to catch up on a bit of news and changes that got released at the beginning of the week. The industry I am it is important to always stay up to day with changes inside the industry as well as any sort of legislative…

  • Back to work on Wednesday.

    Today was a good day, I was able to get a whole lot of tidying up the house sorted out as well as getting my kitchen better organised. I think I need to get into a habit of keeping things organised as I go rather than waiting for the weekend to get everything in order.…

  • A good night sleep, a wonderful day.

    I had a good night sleep, one of those sleeps when your head hits the pillow and you’re out like a light and have a solid 8-9 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Before going to sleep last night I received an email with a credit so then I could purchase the free hats and scarfs up…

  • Good start to the weekend.

    Got up at around 11am today, had breakfast, did some light weights then had a shower then caught the bus to head down to the supermarket to pick up some fresh ciabatta bread along with some fresh blackberries and raspberries. The weather was nice today, I had all the windows at home open to get…

  • Things are going well.

    Looking forward to Monday but before I get ready to go to bed I got the butterflied chicken out of the freezer so that tomorrow when I get up it’ll be all defrosted and ready to go. I’ve left the chicken out (it’s in a vacuum sealed bag) on the bench to defrost where it…
