Sam is Checking in for September 2024,  the Month of Wow

Wow.

This about summarizes the first half of September!

🎈We are also heading towards record breaking temperatures for September though that’s not news I guess. Likely it will be true for each September from here on in.

🎈That said,  me and my bike have been enjoying the warm sunny days and cool nights. I’m still biking to work in the my nerdy spd sandals.

What else happened in September?

🎈An awful lot of work! Some of it pretty stressful as it turns out. I won’t let the state of higher education in Canada, particularly Ontario, stray too much into this blog but let me just say it’s very hard right now. (You can read Alex Usher’s The State of Postsecondary Education in Canada 2024 or his No One is Coming to Save Us if you want an idea of what’s up. Sleep has been lost.)

43 overall stress rating at work the other day

🎈 I did get some fiction in! Thanks to car trips and audio books. The first of these is the Gryphons Read book for 2024.

I might even make it through my annual challenge.

🎈I’m at 301 workouts so far for 2024. My wild goal was 400 but there are only 91 days left in the month. It’s possible I’ll make it but not likely.

The 301st was a lot of fun. It was Bike the Night in Guelph.

🎈I do worry that the rest of the semester is also going to go by in a blur!
