Thursday, 25th October 2018

Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), Wife came home earlier than expected, almost 2 days earlier last night. It's so nice to have her back home. These last two days have reminded me that I spend alot of time sitting at a desk and in front of a computer. Being swept off my my feet the … Continue reading Thursday, 25th October 2018

Monday, 22nd October 2018

Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), Yesterday was a wonderful wrap up of week three of this month's challenge. I feel blessed. Today topped the cake above almost everything else. I'm exhausted. My head is pounding and I can't seem to shake the hiccups. But I couldn't go to sleep without dropping you a quick pen. … Continue reading Monday, 22nd October 2018

Friday, 19th October 2018

Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), It's appears, to my surprise, that people enjoy reading these occasional short journal entries. I mean, I like reading about other people's lives, so I guess it makes sense people might enjoy reading about mine. There is something interesting about seeing how and what other people do. It's the curiousity … Continue reading Friday, 19th October 2018

Thursday, 18th October 2018

Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), After months of burnout, after months of waiting till tomorrow, it's finally the day, the last day of the work week in just 12hrs and then it's a whopping month off. I plan to spend time with the new baby coming soon, with family, time for reading/writing, and of course, … Continue reading Thursday, 18th October 2018

I think my Mum was most proud – Versatile Blogger Award

Every year it was the same handful of kids, on rotation, that would get that award, the big one, in front of the entire school. It wasn't a particularly fancy looking thing either, printed portrait on white A3 80gsm paper, as if it had just come from a photocopier. The stickers on it jazzed it … Continue reading I think my Mum was most proud – Versatile Blogger Award

Tuesday, 16th October 2018

Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), Today marks a victorious day. It's taken only ten years to do it (sarcasm intended), but my student loan is paid off! What. A . Relief. It sure does feel like atleast Wednesday. I don't like wishing away time but the end of this work week couldn't come quick enough. … Continue reading Tuesday, 16th October 2018

Saturday, 13th October 2018

Dear Journal (and #blogtober readers), I hesitated at the thought of getting up too early to do it, but after a fair sleep I awoke, had breakfast, checked social and ventured out the front yard. I cut the lawns after all of this rain and fixed up some of the garden. Meditation has been enjoyable … Continue reading Saturday, 13th October 2018

Thursday, 11th October 2018

Dear Journal (and #blogtober readers), Usually I don't tag my journal entries, I reserve them mainly for my own reference and for those that are really into my blog, for them to find these themselves. Today, I'm opening them up. For the first time in the challenge of blogtober I'm finding creativity a little difficult … Continue reading Thursday, 11th October 2018

Sunday, 30th September 2018

Dear Journal, Today was nice. I know that's a simple way to start this entry, but it was. Real relaxing. It was Dad's birthday. We had breakfast at the Botanic Gardens - BBQ. Lots of bacon. Chavapi. Tomatoes. Eggs. Pancakes. All the good stuff. Of course there was a lot of maple syrup with my … Continue reading Sunday, 30th September 2018

Dear Journal, Today is a celebration of my wife's birthday. She is loved. By so many. Especially the kids and I. That warms my heart. She deserves it. Happy Birthday! It's also the end of the work week for me. Yep, a day early. It's nice to have an extra day to re-energize. I've started … Continue reading Thursday, 23rd August 2018
