A boring and unoriginal story

We should really introduce a ‘don’t like’ button to this forum :see_no_evil:

I would not go that far @Dirk , I think it’s worth earing. I am not a religious person but I have gold scholar knowledge of western monotheistic branches and I respect the underlying values.

I just happen to work in a field when it is better to recognized when a situation is f*cked, accept it and deal with it rather than entertaining delusion.

But again, no arm done

Alright, time to go back home, this week was challenging but I managed. No drink, no stupid choice. But not as many workout I would have hoped. Those trip are taking their roll. It’s up at 5AM, jet lag, quick breakfast and basically no time to eat decently until you crash at midnight in your bed.
The local team has of course arranged as many meetings as they csn, every day, all day. With business lunches and maybe dinner. Staying away from alcool is very hard and awkward. But hey, that’s what we chose.

Next week at home with the kids will be easier and then up to Norway and in November USA and then back home, then middle east. Then usa. And then Christmas.

I made it back home after a painful 20h journey over 2 flights. For some reason I managed to hurt my back. It’s really painful and there is no other choice than to live through it as I still had to drive, still had to wake up, take care of the house, prepare for the kids return, and work a bit of course. All with this pain in the back.

I can tell you that moments like this, a good drink to numb the pain is really tempting. Luckily I still had some médecine I could take. It’s not much but it’s necessary to function and I had a few pills left from the last time this happened. - that bad was probably a year ago or something.

So it will be a challenge. Especially when I have to drive. But I went through much worse. So it will be fine. I still managed without a drink yesterday and that I can take to the bank. have a good weekend folks, thank for being here.

Glad you made it home safe, @Cleon.

I don’t know the details of your back pain, but I have always had good experiences with a heat pack for lower back pain. Maybe that’s something to look into? You can buy disposable ones at the pharmacy or invest in one that is microwave heatable and can be used over and over again.

Today I start something else. I always wanted to learn music so let’s give it a start. It would be a first very personal project in a long time.
