Good Things Friday
Inspired by Elisabeth. … and by Paul—”Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things,”— to engage in more regular appreciation of all the good things.…

Internet Free Day #1
One of my 101 Things is to have 15 internet-free days. I used to have semi-regular tech-free days but haven’t had one for a while. This time I decided to commit to internet-free days because this still allows me to do some hobbies that I enjoy, like photography and putting together photobooks, while enjoying the…

A little catchup
Life has been frustrating lately. I feel like the last three months have been one niggly health issue after another. No one thing has been serious but I feel like I’m constantly losing days to various ailments. On Tuesday I had one of the worst bouts of vertigo in years. It came on very suddenly…

Wanting all the things
I had a cold last week which put a damper on many of my normal activities. Luckily I wasn’t so sick that I had to go to bed, I just avoided too much physical activity and going out in public. So no running, no church, no Alpha which started last weekend, no race, no volunteering…

Friday Thoughts #18
We are now on K’Gari (formerly known as Fraser Island) for a long weekend before heading down to the Gold Coast for the marathon festival. Our time in Noosa was fantastic. The weather was a bit warmer than last year and I feel like we settled in more quickly this year because we didn’t need…

Friday Thoughts #17
We went hiking in the Glasshouse Mountains last weekend. We started with a steep but concreted walk up to a lookout. I forget what this one was called, but the view was pretty good. Next we headed to Mount Tibrogargan. We started on the circuit walk, then decided to give the peak trail a go.…
