My Day

One of the main reasons I haven’t had much time is that I have been spending more time at home helping my wife Joanne. She has had tennis elbow for a few months now and I think her good arm has now gone “bad” because she has been favouring it. Her good arm has been very painful and she finds it hard to do anything at the moment. We managed to get to the doctors today and he had a look at it. It’s really weird, when she moves her fingers it’s as though her knuckles are dislocated. Rather than fingers smoothly opening from a clenched fist, they sort of  “click” open. Looks very odd. She has bad pain in her forearm all week and it is just getting worse. We’ve been trying to get the girls to help a bit more and they are (under sufference sometimes  though!). So, depending upon what happens my time is becoming limited as I help Jo through this painful time.

Friday is here and we’re in the new building!

Apologies for not getting much time to spend on my posts lately. I have been very busy.

Today we continued our move across to the library. We moved a lot of equipment and will be ready to take occupation tomorrow morning. I’m looking very much to providing these new facilities to students.

One thing to break the manotony of moving though was the arrival of my iPhone! It’s pretty cool too!

Finally started setting the new PCs up in our student computer area (known as the eLab). This facility is available for students 24×7. After hours access is enabled via security card. I am so much looking forward to next semester when this new facility is buzzing with students.

Rode to work again, but getting a little fatigued. Combined with my current intense workouts, I’m finding riding every day a bit tiring. I will drive to work for a couple of days in order to “rest” a little bit.

Training is going very well, as is nutrition.

Started our move at work today. We’ll be moving offices to the new library building and hopefully we’ll be fully up and running by the end of next week.

Definitely back on track today with nutrition and had a great workout tonight. Rode to work so got a decent cardio session in as well. Weather was beautiful, although more rain is on the way later in the week.

Another HUGE milestone out in the ShredderSphere! Suzette (Suzette: Quest For Success) has reached a massive 600 days blogging. Well done Suzette!

Today was a pleasant rest day for me. I’ve had a big week and expect another big week ahead. It’s the move to our new building and this will consume our days for the next two weeks.

Internet connection was a real pain today. Up and down all day. Oh well, I guess that happens from time to time. Never had any real problems before so let’s hope this is a one-off!

Not sure what happened today, but I know I ate too much. Had a real lapse in concentration and ate badly! Back on board tomorrow and will have to be very careful this week. Christmas around the corner and particularly at this time of year can be tricky with parties and lots of functions.

Updated my mission animation today. It now includes up to today (Day 22 of 53).

My good friend and fellow shredder Michael Mahony (The Fat Burning Muscle Building Machine) has just hit a huge milestone of 400 days blogging. Congratulations Mike and I thank you for your continued support and friendship. I’m looking forward to see what Mike has planned for Mission 5, but I know one thing and that is that it will be high intensity and produce massive results.

Long time shredder Dougal is going back into hospital. The major surgery he is undergoing is extremely dangerous and carries high risks. I’m sure all of us are sending positve vibes and we are expecting a full recovery. We expect Dougal to resurface soon all well and bounding back in the gym.

Thursday!!! Busy day!!! Managed to keep up with what everyone is up to. Only just managed to read Michael’s blogs :) Wow, all those posts in one go!

My mindset is in the right space at the moment and I’m still feeling very positive about everything.

My training is going extremely well and I’m still plugging away at those heavy weights.

My nutrition is coming along fine. Just need to fine tune a bit.
