  • A good night sleep.

    I had a good night sleep last night, woke up, freshen myself up and then walked down to my local cafe for eggs bene with a side of wilted spinach and mushrooms. The walk to the bakery is around 2km so a total of 4km which is a good bit of walking during the day…

  • Another week is over.

    Another week is over and I’m feeling good going into a new week. Mum has asked me to help out cleaning out the rental property after the tenant left a complete mess but I guess that’ll keep me out of trouble for the day. The one thing I am going to make sure of is…

  • Almost to the weekend.

    At the half way point and feeling good – I like to have a fast on Friday, Saturday and Sunday then break the fast on Sunday night. I used to do it and I stopped but I’ve gotten back into it because I have found it as a way to reset and afterwards I feel…

  • A busy day but an enjoyable day.

    It was a fairly busy day today but on a good side I am able to work on the days when it is busy so that makes the whole experience a lot more enjoyable. Finished work at 10pm, went for a 11.6km walk and I have to admit I really didn’t feel like going for…

  • A couple more days to go.

    Work today was so-so and I finished it up with an 11.6km walk tonight along with some free weights when I got home (on top of the ones I had done during my breaks while working from home). I’m looking forward to getting the week over and done with but on a good side I…

  • The day is looking good.

    The day has been pretty good so far – the weather is nice with the temperature not too hot or cold which will make going for a walk after work a whole lot more enjoyable. I’ve been working my way through he speech that Marco Rubio gave at the Munich Security Conference and once I’ve…

  • End of the night power walk.

    I finished work tonight at 10pm but before I caught the train home I made a quick dash to the local New World which is around 2km from the office – in a space of around 40 minutes I was able to walk from my office, carrying my laptop bag, get into the supermarket, do…

  • First day back in the office went well.

    Finished work tonight at 10pm however rather than taking the train I ended up having to take the bus replacement which wasn’t so bad after all. As for some exercise today, I got off at the train station that is 3 stops from where I live so then I could squeeze in a 2.9km walk.…

  • A relaxing day at home.

    After getting through Sunday night and all of Monday, I thought there was a meeting but then I realised the meeting wasn’t until 2 March but I guess it wasn’t all bad because I double checked before heading to the venue. For lunch I had some pumpkin soup along with some fresh garlic bread and…

  • Things are getting back to normal.

    Last night was absolutely chaotic with the wind, the rain and as things got more chaotic I heard one of my chairs had been blown off the patio so I went out, bought them inside along with the table. The garden shed door has broken open with all the wind with the latch bring broken…
