I’ve been in a bit of a rut lately. Probably over tired from working too many hours.
I managed to get a couple of good sleeps in, made some decent progress on board with some stuff that wasn’t acceptable, and had a killer gym session.
I now feel superb.
The gyms being closed back home really did have quite an effect on me.
How are things with you guys? |  |

The lack of social contact seems to be having a detrimental effect on my sleep, rarely do more than six and a bit hours now after four months or so of lock down. Try and have a kip mid afternoon but even that is eluding me now. On the plus side I am making better than expected progress painting the garage. |  |

I've been trying to watch some film where a small group of people are being hunted by a crocodile out in the Aussie swamps.
I've finally given up as the best acting was coming from the crocodile, (and I'm not convinced that was even a real one. I have suspicions from some of the angles that it might just be a prop). |  |

Gym closing could have been bad news for me, but my trainer switched to Zoom PT (cyberbullying, as a friend puts it). So I have been doing 3x sessions a week at a fraction of gym PT cost. Now I'm away on holiday but still doing a July challenge of push-ups, sit-ups, squats and plank-shoulder-taps. I'm still a boozy, overweight type, but am now a slightly fitter, slightly stronger, much happier boozy, overweight type. |  | | |

You’ll find crocodile Dundee does get better |  |

All good thanks Newcy. Getting ready to re open next week so getting back into work mode after a long lay off.
How long 'til you are back home? |  |

Self-imposed lockdown - I'm no longer classified as needing shielding.
The big Bang Theory has 2 episodes on CH4 at 8.30am ish , 2 episodes on E4 at 10am, 2 more at 1.00pm and 2 more at 6pm. They repeat on CH4+1 and E4+1.
Somehow I find time to eat, sh*t and w*nk as well, so I'm slowly dissolving in my own filth, but I'm still optimistic the football will improve. |  |

Well that was gross.
Moving on, I've actually felt cold tonight and even considered giving the heating a quick run out. But I looked and the thermostat reads 23, which is higher than I would set it even in winter so how does that work then?
If it's 23 it's not cold, but it feels cold. Maybe it's watching stupid people getting eaten by that crocodile. [Post edited 8 Jul 2020 22:51]

Sorry Jeera, I was replying to Newcy and must have accidently hit the reply button on your post.
PS. It's only gross when it's someone elses filth - a bit like farts. | |

I’ve found a sleep routine is key.
It’s taken me ages to get one. | |

What’s your July challenge?
Keep at it! There’s no feeling like getting fitter is there? | |

As lockdowns go... I hope you’re not doing the 3 activities at the same time! | |

I am starting to enjoy TBBT as well....kind of my own personal Stockholm Syndrome
It's all a bit one dimensional and predictable, but I am getting to enjoy the characters

Going on holiday tomorrow taking my father to a North Suffolk cottage for a week.
Technically transition from furlough to garden leave on Monday, found 2 jobs similar to mine... Rejected for both at application stage.
Applied for PCSO job... Rejected as not for and proper person due to house repossession 20 years ago whilst going thru a divorce.
Job front is depressing. Considering buying an avocado farm in Colombia.
Have cut some pounds and inches by trying to do 10,000 steps plus per day, so need new clothes!!!!
Worked out i didn't need to use iTunes to move the music from my iPod to my phone, after I'd loaded up my download account. DOH! |  |

is 'meh" an acceptable answer? | |

Pretty good on the whole, work remains busy and I'm very much used to the pattern of WFH now. To the point that going back to the office for more than the odd say is going to feel a bit odd. I'm walking 10km a day as well which takes a bit of an effort but helps mentally.
I think there's a general sense of 'meh' at the moment though, we got through the first part of the lockdown and reduced infections but everyone - everyone sensible anyway - is well aware that we aren't going back to normal anytime soon. That's offset by a few more places re-opening and the ability to travel a bit and see family. |  |

Considerably better than Late April through to early June. Seen no ITU covid patients since early June but there's still a few trickling the hospital as a whole. I'm back to my regular gig in Outreach Monday week, which I CANNOT wait for.
Whilst it's nice to work with old mates, it's not where my head's at any more. I've gotten far too used to effectively being my own boss rather than working in a fairly rgeimented ITU. |  |

Whatever happens I know that I'm probably still better off than at least 80% of the world's population. | |

Hi Newcy - Tel's Ok. I won't spoil the plot for Sunday's report. I've been diagnosed with Basal Cell Carcinoma after a mole on my cheek went a funny colour and started scabbing, but I've got a hospital appointment next week. |  |

Bored sh*tless. I hate my job at the best of times. Lockdown actually changed things up a bit and made it more bearable for a time, especially having to deal with all the planning around Covid. But now things have settled down and it's become a dull grind again, that honeymoon period is well and truly over. |  |

Stopped drinking at the end of May. Lost 1 1/2 stone and feel great.
Had a brush with a very dark place but survived, had a spell in ITU, back home and recovering.
Cricket season is starting so am chipper. Even managed a few nets. |  |

A mixed bag for people then.
I wish you all the best, if anyone needs to chat feel free to drop me a PM.
Those who have made positive habits throughout lockdown, keep it up after lockdown. You’ll thank yourself.
I’ve just had a bit of an incident on board. I got an electric shock about 45 minutes ago. It seems our Electrician was told to fix the problem in June. It hadn’t been done. Nobody followed up.
I’m furious and have told the management on board to keep the electrician well clear of me for the time being.
I’ve got an Apple Watch that does ECG. Took one shortly after recovering from the shock and the difference between that and my normal is quite massive.
If it had been someone with a heart condition we would have had a fatality. | |

Jeez mate, that sounds extreme.
I worked in the electronics industry for a while and met one or two people who experienced severe electric shock, one of whom went irreparably cross eyed as a result.
So just have a look in a mirror to check.
