  • 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.…

  • A long day at work. It feels good to be home.

    After an early start this morning I am happy to be at home after being in town. Dinner at mum’s was nice along with getting her technology up to date although I have kept her iPhone on 18.7.1 until I am confident that macOS 26.x changes aren’t going to disrupt what she is currently used…

  • Thank goodness the week is over.

    I swear I was losing it towards the end of my shift but thank goodness it is over and I can relax. I’ve got the roast chicken out of the freezer so when I wake up tomorrow it’ll be all defrosted so then I can put it in the oven along with some roast vegetables…

  • Preparing for the upcoming week.

    Next week will be a 6 day week so I’ll be making sure I get a good amount of sleep on Sunday and Monday so I’m all prepared for a long week. I was going to make a grocery order online on Sunday night but I decided to do it Saturday so then it guarantees…

  • Keep hanging in there.

    I keep reminding myself to keep hanging in there – I’ve been at my current job almost 8 years but I think I am getting to the point that maybe, when the economy gets a bit better, there will be more opportunities that are available. I love the workplace and my work mates but holy…

  • The draft folder keeps filling up.

    Work was so-so today but it felt good to get to the end of the day and then go for my nightly walk – fresh air and enjoying the warmer temperature where hopefully I’ll be able to go for a walk without having to wear a hoodie to keep warm. I logged into WordPress to…

  • Another week, another update.

    Woke up this morning after a good night sleep, had my breakfast and then checked for software updates for Chrome – Chrome 142 has been released and with that after the update was installed I then checked for uBlock Origin Lite updates and the release of version 2025.1028.1744 was announced but that’ll appear in the…
