Monday 25th January
The start of another soul crushing week. I’m getting quite fed up of the cold and dark on a morning, my first day off of the year on February 15th can’t come soon enough. It was back to the diet as well after the weekend’s excesses. I’ve got quite good now, none of the usual week on it/weekend off it forget to get back on it routine that I’ve managed in the past. It has to be said as well, that I’m much more sprightly in the morning and my T-shirts hang off me now instead of clinging like a badly static-y sheet.
I’m tryng to walk the dog about a mile on a morning, maybe a bit less. I find this wakes me up quite nicely for the day ahead, and gives me time to think about new ways of passing the time when I get to work. Today’s plan involved finding a very slow responding remote access server and working on that for most of the day. Time consuming, but very easy.
It being so cold and dark makes night time activities a bit of a chore, but we (me, the wife and the dog) donned hats, gloves, scarves and lead to take a quick walk down the hill to my Mam’s, and then a quick walk back again when the dog stunk the house out with a well-digested fart he’d obviously been saving for special occasions.
