So today was supposed to be my final post. I have the entire post all planned out in my head, but then as usual ‘life’ happened and I now feel slightly compelled to write about that rather. So I hope you don’t mind, but it looks like I will have to extend my challenge just …

Thanks for all the messages and calls. I’m feeling very loved. I decided to be brave and make my first video…sorry its so humongous ……I have noooo idea how to fix it!;-) xxxxx
Last Ever Choppie Day!
So today was very sadly my last Choppie day.😢 As much as I love him he is frankly getting a little too big and a little too demanding. (I personally don’t handle demanding to well😬) No longer the little pup that falls asleep for the whole lesson he is now the small dog that bites and …
Day 38: Be Brave Challenge – Living with our ‘Pain Bodies’
So I have developed three cardinal rules that I try my best to stick with when I feel triggered and angry about something: 1. Don’t respond right away 2. Don’t respond via text or email (No matter how hard you try, you’re not going to be able to interpret a person’s tone nor will you be …
Day 37: Be Brave Challenge – The ‘Just Sick’ rant!
I had brief thought on Monday as I am rushing around cleaning house and doing (much dreaded) laundry that I was pretty sick the day before and I really should have been resting. 😒 But as is often the case I go through spells of feeling superhuman (yes like Superwoman💥) And I ignore my body completely. Thought …
Day 36: Be Brave Challenge – The one about the Pigeon
Today I found a pigeon stuck in our girl’s bathroom and was mortified to hear that the poor thing had been in there the whole of yesterday as well. 😢 I spent ages jumping up and down trying to get the poor thing to fly out the door. He kept flying too high and hitting the top …
Day 35: Be Brave Challenge – True Friends
Feeling human again today🤗 I even managed to clean my kitchen and do my washing all by myself. I am so proud.😎 So I was thinking that tonight I would just have a chilled… zero writing evening!! But then so much happened today and I almost can’t help myself.😂 (Mmm…. I think it comes from 28 plus years …
Day 34: Be Brave Challenge – Waterworks!
So yesterday I woke up early on Saturday to tidy the house before Zukie arrived to clean. My flatmate has been away this week which means I have kind of let things slip a bit. I have realized that I function better when I feel accountable for another person. (That’s my excuse!) So I’m feeling …
Day 33 : Be Brave Challenge – ‘The Ultimate Super Power’
So I have been waking up 4 am for the last two days again… Can’t seem to understand the correlation to me feeling happy and then my body thinking “whoohooo I don’t quite need sleep anymore.” (Note to body: you do!) And I feel flu-like symptoms approaching, exactly one day after I joked with a …
Day 32: Be Brave Challenge – Learning to ‘Practice Gratitude’
While I was shopping yesterday I was grabbing new things I had already bought to try on with stuff I was thinking about buying. Had fly-away thought….” Whatever you do don’t pack ‘unpaid for stuff’ back into a paid bag. (An arrest for shoplifting will not do much for your career🤔.) Even checked bag while …
