What I learnt in 2019

It took until this weekend to learn about conditional formatting in Microsoft Excel.

This year I’ve been weighing my body mass most days and lately I have been manually shading the cells red when the weight is greater than 77.9 kilograms. For the last week I’ve been trying to work out the “IF” formula to turn the shading red if the weight was greater than or equal to 78 kilograms. It all looked so complicated. Then on Saturday morning I was looking at the menu ribbon and saw conditional formatting and wondered what that was. Conditional formatting allows me to shade a cell red if the entry is >77.9 kilograms. That will motivate me more to achieve my target which I missed this year. I really want to get to less than 77 kilograms and in 2020, I want to see if I can sustain a body weight between 75 and 76 kilograms.

I spent the last week working on Norfolk Island. I flew there on Monday via Sydney and returned to Canberra on Friday, again via Sydney.
