Getting better
Up to 5 hours a day this week - what luxury I hear you say. A couple of people in the office are keeping an eye on me to ensure I don't overdo things. One chap stood at my desk tapping his watch and holding up 4 fingers, trying to tell me I'd done my 4 hours and I should be going home. I responded by holding up 5 fingers (I was on the phone at the time) and he said "Let you off then".
In a way that was quite good as I was tempted to work longer today because I hadn't done some of the things I wanted to and felt guilty. I then thought it was nothing that won't keep till tomorrow so left. I think this is a good sign, I believe it shows that I'm re-engaging with work, yet not let it rule me.
Running continues, though a bit aimless this week. Over cooked the 6 mile comfortable run on Monday by running too quickly and not backing off. Today's run was a recovery 3 that was just one foot being put in front of the other. Tomorrow should shake out the doldrums. I need to concentrate, its the return of the tready intervals.

It's really good to get used to leaving work when your hours are up. So many of us don't do that these days and we suffer for it. I know where it gets you if you don't follow that rule, I've been in the same place as you.
You're making good progress, Rob.

Can't add anything to what everyone else has said Robert - except maybe this.
We should work to facilitate what we want to do in life...
NOT live to work.
