  • 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…

  • 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…

  • 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…

  • It’s a chilly night.

    The combination of rain and wind has dropped the temperature back to winter levels with the temperature at the moment sitting at 8°C. The weather has been crazy over the last week but unfortunately next week on Tuesday I’ll need to pop into the office but I will get a free breakfast and lunch so…

  • 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…

  • End of the week.

    End of a long week and it couldn’t have come sooner. I clocked off from work and I decided that on my day off I’m going to have a lazy weekend with minimal effort on my part. I jumped onto Woolworths to order groceries for the coming week and then the next week so then…

  • Almost the end of the week.

    It’s almost the end of the week and I am looking to sleep in on Monday and then head down to the local dutch bakery for some egg bene and a cappuccino for brunch. I’ve been sticking to the meal routine, no snacks or eating in between meals, I’m hoping that that if I do…
