Another 4am start – I think we’ll take that as read from now on?
The smoke haze has spread to the SE suburbs now, so the day started with scenes that would look at home in a sci-fi movie…
Was an even thicker haze over the Swan River and Kings’ Park, as I enjoyed a 3km stroll once more. If I keep this up I’ll soon be walking to work from my house! (about 35km, so I’m only kidding).

Physical, Mood etc.:
Morning – Woke up at 3:57 and had to make a small effort to get up as I felt tired.
Lunch – Feel great – slight ache in hips and knees
Night – Feeling a lot brighter than first thing this morning. Definitely in bed about 10 tonight though!
Notes:
Meant to go to bed about 10pm last night, got caught up with stuff and ended up in bed almost an hour later. Will need to watch that – 2 nights in a row now and that was why I was tired this morning.
