We had 562 finishers at Parkrun yesterday. Hopefully not quite such an onerous task for you. Good luck with the injury.

It’s rituals. For almost everything. Doing things the same way every time lets me get through the day with as few crises as possible.

Nothing beats it but it can grow to a massive height and can be a lot of work. Sadly, in the end I had to remove mine and replace them with something not quite so vigorous.

Not a good time to be a possum.

Ghosting is weird. And nasty.

Good luck getting through this. It’s better than the alternative.

So then I went with backgrounds. I think it worked.

Normally I do travel sketches or drawing, rarely repeating a work. This year I decided to do some Christmas Bell cards for family and half way through I’m a bit drained and want to finish them off with a background. I’m thinking of different backgrounds to lose the “ turning the handle” feeling.

Are you talking about the National Party? It’s been happening for a long time.

Work on improving your sleep. It can make a big difference and you have more energy to make use of that excellent wood.

I’ve been spending a week enjoying the warm weather in Cairns. Usually I don’t wear the hat.

I tried 8 sessions with laser and then bought my own IPL. I stopped laser after a session where I had serious negative after effects.

I found IPL to be just as effective or more effective than laser.

My IPL cost less than two laser sessions. I was finding laser was having only marginal impact.

Very unlikely. 5km is my gentle limit.

After the last week of torrential rain I’ll take “not quite as sunny as I would like”.
