2025-w44
The word that sums up this week is: coping: tough to be back at work and face all the lingering issues, but I’ve tried to instil some new routines, mentioned below. A top moment for me was wrapping up the tiles & steel in the ‘splash zone’ of our new downstairs WC. Something I’m looking forward to next week is doubling down on the new routines.
headlines
🧠 Understanding: Some reading about ‘quiet quitting’, which was interesting. I do need to be a little more ruthless about my scope. Encouragement today from Jeremiah 31:33–37 in that God is more likely going to end the sun than go back on his promises to me in Jesus.
🧶 Creating & cultivating: A daily wind-down ritual sheet for work. A checklist with reflective questions and a space to write down loose ends.
📺 Consuming: Wheel of Time Book V, of course. More firewood than usual! Takeaway curry.
🔆 Connecting: Some conversations scattered in the week. On the spiritual side, I’ve tried doing some prayer time in the office before work, which seems to be better than my typical last thing at night (which often doesn’t happen).
