Fri. Jan. 2, 2026 – back at it

By on January 2nd, 2026 in culture, decline and fall

Cool again, but warmer later. Yesterday was nice too. We’re supposed to have clear weather for a few days and increasingly warmer temps. Nice.

Didn’t do a lot yesterday. Still in holiday work avoidance mode. Did some small things like moving stuff around in my office. Took down some lights. Sorted some stuff. Not much, but every bit helps. I’m eating the elephant a bite at a time, but sometimes I think the elephant is still growing.

Today I’ll do a bit more. I’ve got a pickup to do, I think, and a trip to the post office. I’m sure more will make itself known as the day goes on. This mid week holiday messes with my head and the rhythm of my life. I’ll get over it, I’m sure.

This is a good time to do a bit of reflecting, inventorying, and possibly recalibrating. Needs and wants and even capabilities change with time and circumstances. It’s always a good idea to make sure your efforts align with them.

Stack what you need now that you have taken a good look around.

    Friday. Good morning!

    The sun is up, but obscured by clouds. It looks like it might snow a bit.

    I noticed that the windscreen wipers on the car are worn out. I have replacements, so must install them.

    I also want to pass by the automobile club offices and get them to reinitialise online access to my membership account. The portal has got into a death loop of asking for credentials, but not accepting them, and resetting the password doesn’t work because their system says that the email address has no credentials. Grr.

    Wishing you all a good day!
