I've had a couple of quiet days working from home. I have a monster amount of materials to read for the case which has the trial in April and I'm actually managing to be fairly productive. Things are looking up on the return to sports activity front. Yesterday at the pool I experimented with switching … Continue reading Day 36: Swim, Bike, and Get Annoyed
Day 34: Still All Good
This morning's good news was that I woke up with no ill effects from my short spin on the bike yesterday. Tomorrow I will ride again for a bit longer. Today's workout once again was core and upper body weights. I had a lunch with at one of my favorite lunch spots with a new … Continue reading Day 34: Still All Good
Day 33: Moving On Up Like a Tortoise

While the last month has gone by fairly … Continue reading Day 30: Quiet Friday

Being non weight bearing generally makes most activities take two to three times more effort. When it comes to travel, it's more like five times … Continue reading Day 29: The Kindness of Strangers
Day 26: Travel
I'm off to Miami tomorrow for a few days. I'm quite looking forward to it. I used to live in Miami (Miami Beach to be precise) in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The city has changed greatly since then but I still love going back and I always enjoy catching up with colleagues in … Continue reading Day 26: Travel
