  • Starting the weekend.

    The wind and rain are going crazy outside so I decided to do a few things – the first was to put the chairs and table away because the wind had already blown one of my chairs over so I worried what en even bigger gust of wind may cause. The second was to order…

  • Almost there.

    Had a good day at work, finished off some work and then went for my nightly walk and during the day I did some free weights on my break. As for my meal schedule, once again I stuck to it with a continual reminder to myself about the goal I’m trying to reach by the…

  • Two more days to go.

    Finished work tonight, watched a few shows and then went for an 11.6km walk. I saw on news reports that there is going to be some wild weather over the next couple of days so I wanted to get in a walk before hell breaks loose. There was some light drizzle when I was walking…

  • Back home now.

    Arrived back at home and checked my letter box – the CD I ordered off Discogs (it was posted from the United Kingdom) arrived: I checked the CD, perfect condition and I ripped the music to my FLAC collection to back up to the cloud then to AAC format for my iPhone. I’ve had a…

  • Back to work on Wednesday.

    I had a good walk tonight of 11.6km and the weather was good – warm but not hot when compared to the walk down to the bakery when I picked up a late lunch. I’ve got my laptop bag and swipe card all organised as well as lunch too because last week I forgot all…

  • Off to sleep.

    Off to sleep and hopefully tomorrow 26.3 will be released but that may not happen until Wednesday (NZ Time) due to Apple normally releasing it on Wednesday but that all depends on whether there were any show stopper bugs found in the release candidate. I don’t expect it to be a big update but we…

  • A strange night sleep.

    I had a bit of a late night because I got stuck into a binge watch of Fallout season 2 and had a small sleep then I woke up early but couldn’t get to sleep so I then went for a walk at around 6am. It is surprising the number of people out at that…

  • Start of the weekend.

    Finished tonight at 10pm, went for a small walk round the block to clear my head and then came back to heat up some ciabatta bread I had in the freezer – something basic like some fresh bread with butter and honey or butter and marmite is always nice. It is funny how the simpler…

  • Back into a routine.

    My routine got thrown out this week when I headed into the office then had an early start the next day where I had to get up at 7:45am but I’m used to getting to sleep at around 2am so I only ended up getting around 5 hours sleep. The net result was after that…

  • A bit of a shock to the system.

    I had an early start today – up and out of the bed at 7:45am and off to catch the train to work by 8:30am. I was making great time until I ended up at the train station to then find that the train was 15 minutes late with no explanation given. It was kind…
