Bodies are such funny things, they carry us through the world and keep us alive and yet many of us hate them. We hate our own and strangely we have opinions on the bodies of others! Our bodies impact the way people see us, the way we are able to navigate the world, the way... Continue Reading →
Adjusting to a new normal
Staying home, no running, no bread, no gym, WFH (working from home), learning to keep myself busy at home and dealing with the anxiety Covid-19 brings. Well that escalated quickly didn’t it. One week we are plodding along washing our hands more, trying not to touch our face and the next week we can’t leave... Continue Reading →
The old Bucket list.
The “new” Bucket list is getting longer and longer. I have been crossing things off and adding more on.

Bucket list update: 401. Go alcohol free for a month.
So all done , one month without any alcohol. To be honest it was surprisingly easy. I’m not a massive drinker but Christmas is always an over indulgent month so as soon as Boxing Day ended it was time for a break! There were only three occasions where I wanted to have a drink, it...

Why I took a break from keeping track
I’m obsessed with tracking my exercise. My steps, my distance, minutes of activity. Don’t get me wrong I love the feeling of knowing I have done well but, we have been under a lot of stress lately and so busy I have just not done the level of exercise I would normally. And I felt...
