Holes…
It’s been a hard day, which is why I’ve been in super distract myself mode. In the past I’ve never met a problem I couldn’t joke/spend/eat etc my way through. But I seem to have lost that ability, my dark humour that used to get me through things isn’t really working anymore, in fact I’ve…

My Only Real Job…
Another day of dealing with the seemingly never ending paperwork for my father’s estate. The court needs an occupation to put on my forms, because bureaucracy loves a label, so I just put carer because it’s simpler than trying to summarize the litany of various side hustles and small businesses I’ve shoehorned around the rest…

Sure, lets give that a whirl…
You know what’s annoying? The naturopath giving you medical advice that your doctor should have considered. I’m pretty anti-woo, especially the basis in anything type, but I’m also willing to pick the eyes out of most things. I’m also more likely to believe a naturopath that falls into the more of a dietitian, than I…

Anecdotally of Course…
I’m not the man I used to be, and I don’t have any science to prove it. One year ago I caught covid, and it knocked me on my butt. It took me months to shake the fatigue, brain fog parts, which might be why it took so long to notice the other changes. I’ve…

Desk Cleanse…
A cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind. I’ve got no idea if that is true, but if my mind is anything like my desk there is definitely a problem. After trying to work in a space that looks more like somewhere you would purchase a mogwai than an office, Im ready for…

Trying…
I had my first session with the 12 week exercise study at the University today. I get personal training three times a week, and they get my blood and body scans, sounds like a good swap. I chose the 6am slot because it’s is early enough that my brain isn’t working. I’m tricking myself into…

Underneath…
I’m looking at old photos of the farm, trying to locate where things where originally, and where they still might be under all the trees etc. It’s also a lot easier to get a mental map of where to put things looking at pictures of the empty space. There are definitely areas that need to…

A Bag of Concrete…
Is how much weight the doctor wants me to loose before June. That’s 20 kilograms for those 3 countries that don’t use modern measurements (actually only 2 since the UK knows what kilos are). Seems I have a chubby liver and it’s causing some grief, but nothing that can’t be turned around with “lifestyle changes”,…

How do you eat an Elephant?
According to the old saying its one bite at a time. I’m trying to embrace that journey of a thousand miles begins with a single elephant sandwich mentality for the farm. I have got some of the first bites out of the way, scrap guy slowly doing his thing, and the goat guy dropping of…

Not my First Rodeo…
Every year my father didn’t attend the local annual rodeo. Even though it was 500m down the road from the farm, and pretty much the only event on the village calendar. I feel like I should continue this fine family tradition by also not attending not attending this weekend.
