...yes that bit. The bit where you tend to forget what day it is!
Well, probably not a problem for lots of people, but the organisation I work for closes down over the Christmas period and I always struggle to keep track of the days.
The festive days were lovely and quiet in Stav Towers as the wife and kids went away to spend it with her parents. I stayed home and looked after the animals - it was all rather dreamy really. Spending it solo didn't mean any half measures on the food front. Breakfast was Prosecco and smoked salmon.
Christmas lunch was a topside of roast beef with all of the usual suspects.
Even better was the entertainment as I got to spend Christmas like it was 1992 again! Thanks to Steam I managed to get some Sega Classics running on my MacBook Air (M2) - much fun was had. I had the added benefit of not having to argue over who had the controller next!
The time off has been fantastic for the ol' depression/MH challenges. I've even been out to the gym and for a run. Well, I say run ... more going through the motions than the speed of running. I started C25K .... again. We'll see if I can make it through the program without an injury or something other reason to stop!
Anyway, it's Sunday which means preparing the Sunday dinner and getting my head in the books. I'm still trying to get my head around Python programming - I'm finding it a struggle as usual but I'm sure it'll come.
Lovely! Your dinner looked fab too, made my mouth water just looking at the picture.
It's so nice to get a few days where you've minimal responsibilities.
Good luck with the C25K!
All the best for 2025 🥂
Thank you - I hope it's good to you also.
I think the C25K thing will be a long slog. It always seems to trigger some injury or a gout attack. I think I'm going to be fighting fire with fire with taking preventative medications when I need to. I hate taking tablets but I'm absolutely going to get to running 30 mins and/or 5k this time around!
I found that with the C25K as well. It seemed like in no time at all I had an injury! The physiotherapist suggested that it might be good to do more strength building activities alongside the running, and to slow down the process by half, so if it said run for x minutes, do x/2 instead. The gout sounds painful.
But anyway, good to keep going!
Seasons greetings. Looks like you had fun despite being alone. I hope next year is good to you. We need to meet up again some time.
