Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel (The Doors)

Wie geht's?

School is back in session for Term 2, and it's crazy busy with a headlong rush. At the moment I'm doing my job plus another's for this first week, so the blog has fallen behind.

Yesterday, I couldn't resist temptation and kicked a football, hard, into the goal while the boys set up for a game of indoor football. Felt good at the time, but, was a bad move as it turned out. My back has been in a precarious state since moving all my records last June (MRI, bone scan shows potential need for surgery).

So, last night was a painful one.

Marcus Aurelius can always be relied upon for a sense of perspective during such times.

Enough of this miserable, whining life. Stop monkeying around! Why are you troubled? What’s new here? What’s so confounding? The one responsible? Take a good look. Or just the matter itself? Then look at that. There’s nothing else to look at. And as far as the gods go, by now you could try being more straightforward and kind. It’s the same, whether you’ve examined these things for a hundred years, or only three.

Love and peace - Wozza.
