So December is officially a week old and with three weeks to go until the new year, thoughts have focused on my remaining goals for the year with a lot still to do and no further completions so far this month.
As I write, it is three weeks since I left ASDA and like I said last week even though being unemployed isn't a joyful experience and that the days seem to come and go without much notice, I have got a few things done that I had put off such as returning to my workout routines via a new utility, Xbox Fitness which allows me to workout in the limited space that is available.
The return to working out has come because I know my goal to reach a healthy weight will not come this year so starting a new regime can start 2014 off with a positive also due to not walking to and from a job anymore, my walking mileage has suffered and hopes of reaching 2000 miles on my Runkeeper app is unlikely to happen before the year's end but I enjoyed a nice five mile walk yesterday which got me out of the house for a change.
After working out that I had attended 61 Warriors games since my first back in 2010, I booked what will be my 62nd, James Roby's Testimonial which sees Wigan travel to face St Helens on Jan 31st which will be my second trip to Langtree Park and the first of what could be 3 or 4 next year.
On the subject of Wigan,I mentioned last week that plans for my 2014 coverage via Skem News was in the works but I discovered that the website had mysteriously ceased publishing which is a downer meaning my coverage will have to be self published via my blog from February.
Another negative was the progress of finding someone new as after meeting 'Suzanne' and awaiting her return from holiday, she messaged me to tell me that she didn't think it would work out and we went out separate ways.
Sports wise, Liverpool started the month badly with a 3-1 loss to Hull but back to-back wins against Norwich which saw four goals from Suarez in a 5-1 win and a 4-1 win at the weekend over West Ham have seen them rise to second with a tough trip to Tottenham this weekend, Skem kept up their good run of form to return to the top of the NPL while progressing in the cup with a 2-0 win over Radcliffe in midweek followed by a 1-0 win over Rushall on Saturday which was rich revenge as the visitors handed Skem their first defeat on the season's opening day.
Washington's season went from bad to worse as they slipped to 3-10, a record now worse than Jacksonville and Tampa who were both 0-7 at one stage when the Redskins were 2-5 and the two now have four wins each. Washington started the month with a 24-17 loss to divisional rivals New York Giants which was followed up by a humiliating 45-10 defeat to Kansas City Chiefs who led 31-0 at one stage as the Redskins look to be ending 2013 on a huge losing streak.
The Xbox One has continued to dominate my gaming schedule with 52 achievements unlocked so far this month with 29 from COD Ghosts being a massive contributing factor but with only one unlock on the Xbox 360 in December there will need to be a balance set up although with only six games for the One versus 250 for the 360, the latter will regain domination of the playtime.
Just like last week the schedule is the same so for now it’s just a case of job searching, gaming and enjoying some writing and designing.
