  • 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…

  • 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…

  • 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…

  • Erratic weather today, climate change making the weather random?

    Today it has swung from one extreme to another, first it was fine and then it was heavy rain then the sun came out then it was heavy wind and rain. Funny enough, as all this was going along, I was watching a video on YouTube regarding el nino and how the usual cycle has…

  • Raining and crazy weather.

    It has been another horrible day today so I decided to take the night off. I had a good day at work, stuck to my meal plan for today and counting my calories and with that I have really come to enjoy a mug of Earl Grey tea to warm me up when working at…

  • A reboot and a restart for a new week.

    Today I finally replaced my current bed with a new bed and bed side tables along with cleaning the whole house from top to bottom – cleaning every skirting board, hoovering all the floors, wiping down the window ledges etc. I also took my mattress outside in the fresh air and sun that was out…

  • Second day getting back on track.

    Second day getting back on track and sticking to the plan, taking one day at a time and working towards the end of the first week. I went for an 11.6km walk tonight which was done in around 1 hour and 50 minutes and I arrived back just after midnight and I felt good –…

  • Back to work on Wednesday.

    I’m heading back to worn on Wednesday but tonight I went to mum’s for dinner along with updating her phone, laptop and desktop software. Next week we’ve organised replacing my current bed because at the moment it is a bit worse for wear due to the middle of the bed lacking support (the newer beds…

  • Where is spring?

    Another day of horrible weather – raining, windy and cold. Tonight I had some garlic bread, oven fries and chicken nibbles for dinner – something to warm me up on a cold evening. I’ve got my heater going but I’m hoping that the weather will get better because this is ideally the time when the…

  • Lousy weather tonight.

    Finished work and then went for a walk only to find that the weather was lousy. I was going to tough it out but by the time I got back after 5.8km it was getting close to raining then when I did get home the heavens opened. It makes me happy that I didn’t get…
