Every day I ...

  1. ... wake up. -Phew!
  2. Have a cup of tea.
  3. Let the animals out.
  4. Let the animals in.
  5. Feed the animals. Rinse and Repeat last three items.
  6. Have a multi-vitamin tablet (It helps me not get a sore shoulder joint) 
  7. Have a shot of Pysllium(Read about it here) Husk in a yogurt or OJ (it helps me do other things during the day :) )
  8. Have a shower - I just can't seem to get started unless I shower.
  9. Shave my face - I didn't used to, but my Uncle Earle, who is retired and very old now, does it too and if it is good enough for him, then it is good enough for me.
  10. Put on deodorant. Everyone should too.
  11. Brush my teeth, those that are still with me anyway
  12. Listen to music. I have gathered over 10,000 mp3 files over the past 10 years, covering most of the music I've listened to since I could first hear and process music, so there is always something to listen to.
  13. Watch some news - local, national or global, with Foxtel I get to choose what, depending on my mood
  14. Read something aspirational. This could be on the 'net, or in a newspaper, or in a Dungeons and Dragons manual, or in a book, but not The Book.
  15. Relax in the evening, alone. This may be just before I go to sleep, but being an introvert, I need my own 'chill' time after being around people, even those I love.
  16. Wish for a better day in the morning
  17. Forget to do something today (pay a bill, save a dollar, speak to a child, call a mother, brother, friend etc)
  18. Regret that I forget something, mentally shrug and say "Oh well, I try to do it tomorrow!"


Coming up next. "Every week I ..."


Note that Coffee, Smokes, booze or sex no longer fit into my Every Day list. I seem to have given them up over time, along with exercise. Just some of my regrets.

Is this for real?

One of the biggest dramas I face is where to put my stuff. Well this Blogger thing may be the one, 'cos it seems to be everywhere, and anywhere, all at the same time, and I kinda like that :)

The Month in Review...just where do these days go?

Since May, my life has been 'on the go'. After the last FP visit, we had another person visit us, with the the same story, but she was much nicer about our woeful financial position, so Dee and I heard her out. We liked her so much that we invited her back next month for another chat. In the meantime, we have put our block of land up for sale...there goes Dee's dream of a new house for the short term. Our plan is to clear our debts with the profit from the land sale, and then start again with a deposit from what is left over. Dee will have completed her two year limbo with the Tax Office and I shall get a better paying job. We clear on that? While all this was going on, my brother-in-law, Pete Clarkson suddenly died back home in Christchurch. The family flew me back home for his funeral and wake. I was then asked to represent Deb and the family in delivering the eulogy. There was volcanic ash in the skys between Australia and NZ but I flew on Air New Zealand and they ke...

Macro Economics - part 1

For many many years, I have had a little statement rolling around in my head. I can't recall where I heard it, but I know it was not an original idea of my own. It goes something like this... A man's weekly wage can buy a bicycle or a good suit of clothes A man's monthly wage can buy a reasonable car A man's yearly wage can buy a luxury car A man's Half yearly wage will allow him to take a family of four on an overseas holiday Three years of a Man's wage could buy a small house/home ...and all this was from 100 years ago. Since then, I have sporadically and randomly searched for this type of reference on the internet but I've come up mostly empty, however I recently read another statement along the same lines, in that an ounce of gold could buy a pound of bread (or about 600 loaves) This has prove to be a lot richer vein to follow, if you can pardon my pun. This thought can be traced as far back as 2,500 years, so maybe after all the wondefull chan...
