Reflux - again

For the last three days, I have been having another bout of the dreaded reflux. I was unable to eat as my body just turned everything to gas and I just kept vomiting stuff up. I believe that this is caused by High Blood Pressure. I have started taking my blood pressure pills and I feel much better now. Hopefully, that is the last of it.

A new storage and back up system

This morning the technician explained to me about our new back up system at work. We can now finally back up all our files properly. The weather is still very cold.

A new printer

I can now access the photocopier at work from my PC. The technician installed a new internet port that allows up to use the colour photocopier. That means we can get rid of all the smaller printers.

I have also finished the Kangaroo Flat database.

World Cup Finale

I got up early this morning to watch the World Cup final. It was not a great game. Spain won 1-0. I was glad they won because the dutch were very negative. I was late for work because I was so tired that I had to go back to bed. That was ok as I did not have much work to do anyway.

In the afternoon I saw Dr Lee again. He told me that my blood tests showed that my sugar was a bit high. My cholesterol was good and my kidneys were in good shape. It was a good report generally.

Motorcycle simulator

Today I had a try out on the Motorcycle simulator at Elliott Bros. It was a good experience. I felt tired at work today. Probably a hang over from my first gym session.

First gym session in years

I did not have much to do at work today. I had gotten up early to watch the world cup semi-final between Germany and Spain. Spain won 1-0, which I was happy about.

In the afternoon, i went to the YMCA and had my first gym session in many years. The instructor was a girl named Briley Tonkin. She was very good. She has started me off with a basic program that we can build up as we go along. I am sure the gym work will do me good. It took a couple of weeks to get a medical clearance, but now I can go ahead and hopefully lose some weight.

Last night we had another Shiraz club night. We met at Rod Geri's place again. They now have the Pizza oven working, so we had pizza as well as wine. We also went into the Spa. Dale prentice turned up, which was cool.

First of July 2010

The first day of July in 2010 has proven an eventful day. I got the go ahead to start the BUCO website. I had a meeting with Kath and Sue in the Cottage and it is all systems go for the new website. Kath wants to gradually build it into a site where we can sell stuff online. I have a template already chosen. I will get working on it ASAP.

The weather has turned really cold and wet in the last few weeks. This is good as the reservoir levels are finally rising!

A good day at last.

I finally had a good day after a week of frustration. My internet had stopped working for a week or so. However, my good friend Gary Davis h...
