Its hectic!
This month has been jam packed.
I am not sure whats going on but its busier than ever
I have been slammed with work so my blog has taken abit of a back seat. Consequently it is not as full as previous.
No new research
I have not particpited in any PD research this month and ongoing background work on the Tele-CBT project has meant a hiatis on that involvement also.
Becoming an Aussie.
Yes.. A little more progress. Forms to fill and lodge. Yawn. It's a drawn out process. And expensive.
More help with Parkinson's awareness and advocacy.
YOPD catch up this month was a general chit chat. #thisisparkinsons . Some very open and honest discussion from the group and a couple of newer group members contributing which was good to see. A common theme seemed to be how many are affected by anxiety. Fortunately this is not something that I suffer but I can see how much impact this has on individuals. Was also great to see that some of the group have turned a bit of a corner in terms of accepting what they are dealing with and taking positive actions to life a better life now and get some positive things done.
PQI held its AGM recently - was disappointing to see such a small turnout. The team there do a great job with limited resources.
Walking.
On going through rain, and shine. Still haven't missed a day . New target 1000. #committed
Medication.
No Change to the schedule or positive impact.
Pilates.
Pilates is back on Wednesday evenings, more challenges being set for me. It has been smaller numbers with just the two or three of us this each week.
PFU Boxing and more.
Each week there is something new for the warmup. Good to see some of the old regulars reappearing too.
Social Outings.
Lots on the calendar, regular "Thirst-day" drinks with the lads are always good. You can find us at Ballistic on Montague Road from about 4:30 each week.
Work.
Head down and focus on delivery with more work coming on stream from sometimes unexpected places. Still trying to catch up and complete some existing projects. Many new projects in the pipeline and continuing to clean up existing projects.
Land Sailing.
Waiting for each Sunday to see what's happening at the track.... and have had a few other events happening. Weather conditions mean no sailing. bah.
Membership has taken a bit of a dip and we are still trying to establish the status of the Hamilton track. I hope to get some beach runs in if there is a chance.
Otherwise for me its still so far so good.
Same Same.
And that is all for just now - keep a lookout for the next post and thanks for tagging along!
