My Garmin watch measures all sorts of health things and creates even more stats. I was amused about the Stress one which has ticked up over the past few days. Probably wasn’t helped by a kid leaving the bathroom tap on and flooding the place which then came through the ceiling in several rooms downstairs 🤦‍♂️

Reading The Notebook: A History of Thinking on Paper and it makes me want to go all in on paper notebooks and pens etc. Just in time for 2026.

But I won’t.

Seems like I’ve hardly taken any photos this Christmas. Keep forgetting the camera or leaving it in another room. We all looked at some of the summer holiday photos on the TV, and everyone enjoyed that. I’d used a Fuji recipe that was slightly more yellow and softer looking, it helped with everyone reminiscing that it was the best summer holiday and the “light was lovely”. It is much more fun to take photos outside on a bright sunny day, than indoors on a dark December.

I’m returning to just keeping all my sites the same. I want to add the radio hill walks to the existing dokuwiki I have, but mainly for me to look back on. It’s not very efficient and probably ends up in me doing more work in the long run but not really interested in making something new or moving content around.

I remembered I made plans for 2025, and probably those are good for 2026 too, in fact they are good forever. I do want to clear out the garage so I can permanently setup and use the rowing machine. Decided I should try and hit 1 million meters in 2026…which isn’t going to happen if the machine is tucked up again the wall with a pile of junk stacked on top.
