Good Day All!
Been awhile since I've posted in here.
Work (construction) has been super busy and I've taken on a new role in the company.
Been working 12-14 hours daily. My work day starts at 4:30am and I'm here till 4:30pm and still on the phones till 7pm dealing with issues.
I am exhausted...Need a holiday for sure. Circumstances won't change until we can hire someone to come help out.
Oh well, at least I've managed to get in a few classes a week regardless of work.
Hope you are all doing well.

Training in München with two awesome fellow Germans. We suck at the whole mean mugging Gracie Face thing. Too naturally friendly! :D
And if you're wondering, yep, I borrowed a gi from Dani, hence the lack of mismatched garish colours. ;)

Got a day off! So... took wifey to her work, visited a couple dog parks with the doggo, took the car to the mechanic for service, hiked a bunch around town, did some social media ads for my gym...
Why are my off days more busy than my regular days??? :D

We’re going into a little warm front here. Hopefully I can get a few hours sleep so I can hit a seminar and get some sun this afternoon.

-22C for us last night, which is still surprisingly warm for the season. January was super warm, even above zero for a couple of days.
Spent past week sick with the flu. Coached a class yesterday and today. Also rolled a bit today. Next week will be back to normal.

So I am away on a deployment with work in Norway. Training everyday in the gym which is a bonus. Managing bjj 2 days per week to keep my mat time up. Also nice to introduce the sport to guys who have never done it. As there is only me and one other who do it back in the UK. So trying my best to show them the ropes and to be good training partners. As I am aware I am a white belt. But it wouldn't be fair to not help these people out. As I need a rolling partner at the end of the day.

Been brushing up and learning GSheets spreadsheet formulas that I'm building for my small garage gym while it's still manageable. Started with 2 clients at the end of the lockdowns and now 17 more have popped up since so it's time for back office admin. But spreadsheets tho... :(

Nice! Love it out there.
I haven't been since 2019 before the Covid fiasco.
I have to say it seems more run down and homeless everywhere.
I was surprised how much things changed.

Over in this part of the world we are suffering from the seasonal slash-n-burn practices in the farming areas up in N. Thailand and Laos, then the seasonal winds blow the ashes all the way down to Singapore. Heat is up, humidity is so thick you can cut it with a butter knife, then the skies are foggy but it's ash and smog which is called Haze locally.
