Christmas Review

This is a quick Christmas report. I think I did the same in 2013 and last year I just had a Perth holiday report, so this will be a combination of the two.

• December 25
• We had a restaurant dinner yesterday instead, so not big celebration meal today
• In the afternoon I finally got a chance to watch Star Wars
• The movie was good but I had to sit through uncomfortable leg pains
• December 26
• Started with shopping, standard stuff, didn't attend any Boxing Day special events
• I watched some of the NBA Christmas Day games that were playing all day
• Since I've been struggling with a leg injury for a few days my only option for exercise was a gym session
• I watched Paranormal Activity 5 which didn't quite rival Star Wars, pretty much a waste of time
• December 27
• Back to the gym again
• Watched the BBC Match Of The Day boxing day episode
• Better than usual because it had all ten matches
• Lots of house cleaning
• Finished planning for a short holiday trip from December 29-31
• I was considering not going due to my leg pain
• December 28
• I watched the NFL red zone early in the morning, they switch between all games when something is about to happen
• Back to the gym again
• Continued on with the live NFL games later in the day
• More house cleaning
• Packing for the holiday
• December 29
• Drive to Halls Gap, see the holiday report for more details
• December 30
• Driving around the Grampians, see the holiday report for more details
• December 31
• Drive home from Halls Gap
• Catch up on another BBC Match Of The Day and NFL
• Back to the gym after two days off - besides lots of walking
• January 1
• Started playing some old NES games, beginning with Mega Man 4
• The car needed a good clean inside and out after the trip to the country side
• A couple of days after all the walking and my leg pain is getting much worse again
• January 2
• The leg pain didn't improve much overnight
• Finished Mega Man 4 on NES
• Also finished watching Mr Robot season one, a little disappointing
• Tried swimming instead of going to the gym
• My leg felt pretty good afterwards, but the pain returned later
• I went to the Big Bash at the MCC
• Melbourne Renegades vs. Melbourne Stars
• Had to wait twenty minutes in the new security lines
• Leg pain was really bad while sitting down, it seems to be the worse position for it
• Over 80,000 crowd, the game was good
• January 3
• An extra long session at the gym without bringing on any extra pain I think
• Another BBC Match Of The Day
• Tried to have a relaxing last day before heading back to work
