Family

  • Enjoying introducing my two-year-old son to Christmas.
  • Loving my baby boy.
  • Taking full charge of some more domains of household chores to achieve a more equitable balance with my wife.

Career

  • Part-time mathematics teacher at a small rural UK school.
  • Running extra-curricular maths enrichment for my “elite” GCSE students, teaching them about algebraic curves.
  • Started teaching GCSE computing, taking over mid-year as it has transpired I’m the only teacher in the school who knows anything about computing…

Creativity

  • A self-directed “Advent Of Blogging” challenge.
  • Slowly working on one more crossword I hope to get out in December.
  • Creating the aforementioned course for my GCSE students is scratching a real creative itch at the moment.

Body

Honestly, not much. Baby has interrupted pretty much all my fitness habits and I’m not sure how I’m going to get back on it yet.

Curiosity

  • Re-reading Republic by Plato with an eye toward the educational themes
  • Playing the philosophical puzzle game The Talos Principle
  • On my commutes I have started listening to Pimsleur’s Spanish course

Soul

Not much going on here at the moment.

Community

Another area that is lacking a little.
