  • End of the first week back at work after having Christmas off – finished work at 10pm, did some light weights during the day, went for a brief walk, picked up a few things from the store and headed back home. Relaxing in bed watching some tv series and seeing the whole Venezuela situation unfold.…

  • Finished work tonight at 10pm, did some light weights and then went for my 11.6km walk. The one thing I love going for a walk late at night during summer is the temperature isn’t too hot or too cold so then it is possible to exercise without having to wear a sweatshirt while at the…

  • Went for a smaller walk tonight of only around 9km but the main objective is that I get out of the house each night for some exercise even if it isn’t the normal 11.6km. I got back home, had a shower and jumped into bed to watch some news and catch up on what has…

  • It appears that some of the worst people on earth have come out of the woodworks to ring up for assistance. I really have to wonder whether more people demonstrating learned helplessness or whether it is just weaponised incompetence.

  • Went out for my nightly 11.6km walk tonight and on my neighbours were letting off fireworks to celebrate the new year. After I came back, I did some more weights, had a shower then jumped into bed for a relaxing sleep good night. I then logged into Shukr to order some clothing – after many…

Today mum was down at Kmart (yes, we still have them in New Zealand) and…

  • The groceries I ordered last night arrived and I put them all away along with having some breakfast then after that I went around spraying some weedkiller on the places where the weeds grow in-between the concrete. After all that was sorted I jumped onto my work laptop to check for updates – Dell update,…

  • I’m back to work on Wednesday but in the mean time I’m savouring every moment until I have to get back to work. I’ve ordered some groceries online tonight for deliver tomorrow so that I have my pantry stocked for the coming fortnight so then I’m all ready. After ordering groceries I then went for…

  • Just before I head off to sleep, the end of the year draws near and I look back at what has happened throughout the year, I have to admit that personally I’ve had a good year getting closer to my health goals but that being said it hasn’t been a great year outside of that…

  • I decided to have a quiet Sunday at home – no drama, no going down to the store, just enjoying the vibe and working on my garden. Mum came around to drop off some extra plants which has added some extra greenery to the backyard although I am still working on a bigger project. What…
