More Of The Same

montony, the board game
Monotony - an easy way to pass the day!

Today is really a continuance of Tuesday's events with me pretty much occupied for a good 9 hours doing what I was doing earlier in the week, a bit of a groundhog day to say the least - but I am making good head way with the task in hand, it's just a shame that it's so monotonous.

But monotonous is good, I seem to be quite good at getting on with jobs that are like this and I guess my secret to getting through lots of tasks which are the same (in this case checking data and filling in missing bits) is that I set myself regular goals that are not unrealistic. For example today I'm doing 200 checks and then taking a break to have a coffee or something similar.

And it's amazing how quickly the hours dissipate into nothingness and it's not long till it's dark outside, Phil gets home from his trip into London, and I stop for the evening to get on with dinner and take a break for the eye burn of staring at a monitor for the best part of an entire day.

So really not much to write about today, it kinda gets like that when you've just done one thing all day and nothing else....
