The dimmer switch in my brain just turned up

[queneva]

It's been five months since I took redundancy. I've been having a break, which has in many ways been a very good thing. There is, however, a huge list of stuff that I was going to get done in this break period, and so far a lot of it hasn't.

Until this week.

I thought about my "obstacles", in the way I used to get my team to tell me theirs in scrum

Have been working on some stuff about getting my bike back on the road, as well. That's a bit complicated by me having a batch of dodgy spokes on the wheels which are snapping and unsafe. Working on it.

When I bought my current bike, I would break a spoke or two every month (more or less). Bike shop reckoned the manufacturer just shipped the bike with cheap spokes. There must be something in that, because I haven't broken one in ages.

At any rate, as I recall, a broken spoke was a problem of the "if you ignore this, it'll bugger your wheel" type, and not going to cause sudden injury.

(come to think of it, I haven't broken an axle in a long time either.. I used to do that quite often too, but maybe it was with my previous bike)
