    Yesterday (Thursday) I spent the day shifting stuff out of the garage (about to be knocked down) into a self store. The room we’ve got there is up some steps.

    After a long day, I dropped a heavy thing on my foot. Felt like a fool, and also in amazing pain. Took my sock off there sat on/in the car boot to have a look (gross is all I’ll say). That’s all my race training postponed for a week at least (supposed to be Triathloning).

    Then had to hulk the rest of the stuff up the stairs and finish up, because it was just me! Luckily that was the last car load.

    Learned my lesson, next time I’m bringing a friend. And possibly steel capped boots.







  • I actually use a dice (D6, 50:50 choice usually) to decide between two options sometimes.

    The idea is to fool my brain into revealing what it really wants. Like, if I can’t decide, I’ll assign each choice odds or evens, then roll.

    If I’m OK with the result, then it decided for me no problem. Maybe I didn’t care, maybe I preferred what I rolled.

    If I don’t like it, then RNG just showed me what I really wanted – now I can go with the other option.

    Reduces decision fatigue, and speeds up my life. I’ve been teaching it to my kids (although their favourite RNG is the Chwazi app.)

    Interesting. I will watch out for that.

    Generally, it gets better or worse very slowly for me, now that I’m on Loratadine all year. (Used to miss the start of the season and start taking too late, and it would take a month to calm down). So its a day or more after we get rain that the sneezes drop off.
