  • 🏋️‍♂️ First session of the year with the Exercise Physiologist went well, set new targets for the year with an eye on improving my golf game, particularly core strength and recovery aspects. Felt good and strong during the workout, off to a solid start!

  • Have been fairly busy today, just ticking off chores around the house and yard, trying to keep the momentum going.

  • ⛳️ Made some minor tweaks to my golf simulator setup and it’s now the launch monitor is working way more accurately…so much so that my handicap well and truly comes into play.

  • I made a [Pork & Holy Basil Stir-fry (Pad Kra Pao)](https://thewoksoflife.com/pad-kra-pao/) for dinner tonight, quick and simple to make, and super tasty! 😋

  • I’m going to add a [Projects](https://mathewpacker.com/projects-tasks/) page to my website to keep track of all the projects I work on around home. Nice to have something to reflect back on when my brain goes off to that _funny place_ where I feel like I’ve not contributed enough or not completed enough things.

  • I’m hoping that when the calendar ticks over to January 1st that my health, energy, and emotion bars all refill automatically…that’s how the game of life works now, right?

  • A black and white dog is lying on its back on a brown leather couch, appearing relaxed. It has its paws up and eyes closed, next to a yellow toy.

    Upside down Zelda. Must be a tough life. 😜

  • Thinking of building out a small, dare I say micro, website for the social golf club I play in. Tech wise, it needs to hold the season calendar, links to the courses we’re playing, the winners of each grade when we play, links to sponsors, and contact info. micro.blog looks a likely option. 🤔

  • ⛳️ Played [Merewether Golf Course](https://www.merewethergolf.com.au) this morning with a couple of mates. Didn’t hit them super well, but still shot better than my handicap, managed a couple of pars, as well as a birdie on one of the Par 3’s.

    A golf scorecard displays player Mathew Packer's total score of 91 with details on fairways hit, greens in regulation, and number of putts.

  • ⚽️ Don’t mind waking up and seeing that Manchester United, Manchester City, and Tottenham, all lost their games in the English Premier League overnight. Better if Chelsea and Liverpool were also on that list, but beggars can’t be choosers.
