    Not a Job

    Oh look, I’m back in the Personal Blog again… I wonder why that is?

  • Finally

    Finally

    After three months, I can finally admit someone’s publishing me. That’s the next thing crossed off the list. Tomorrow, we make a new goal.

    Lost and Found

    I will look back on this week, in a year’s time, knowing how important it was for everything I became. A body is moving into shape. The requirement to fuel properly has become massively important. I can’t send things away to people and assume automatic failure any more. Most importantly of all, my voice is […]

    My optimal operating temperature’s about 18 degrees Celsius. The last few days, therefore, have been beyond grim.

    Believe Me Now

    Where has the week gone? I know the answer to this, it is all in planning and recovery from this ankle injury. We are getting there, slowly but surely. It would be helpful, if in future, the attempts at self sabotage could be kept to a minimum. A lot is in the pipeline for next […]

    Duet

    To prepare myself for going away, I’m writing this on my iPad. The WP app has always been notoriously flaky, and as it took three goes to load this after logging in, it is reassuring to see not much has changed in the five or so years since I did this last. I wrote two […]
