My biggest problem last week was having too much to do and too little time. Not an unusual situation. As a result I slept a little less and didn’t go for my morning runs. Also a common situation. But it made me feel worse and the longer commute didn’t help.
This week I’ve worked five days at the day job and it’s been a great variety of projects as well as byflock work. The commute is taking a little getting used to but other than that it’s great to be back in central London.
It’s just over a year since we completed project flat and today we went to Ikea, again. As always you end up with quite a few things when you leave the yellow and blue store, but today it was planned.
Since April 2011 I’ve had a maximum of 20 minutes on the tube to work, all of it overground. Door to door I’ve never been more than 30 minutes away. Now I’m getting used to longer journeys as well as being squeezed in like a sardine down in the tunnels.
The biggest challenge with all of this is by far getting the hours to work, in both senses. Having time to do the work and having time to do everything else that I want to do and need, like sleep and exercise.
