For most of June, I felt like I had a veil of sadness draped over me, there is no reason for this, I just felt sad. I started the month with a short road trip with a friend to get a much-waited tattoo, now, I know that tattoos aren’t everyone’s cup of tea! This recentContinue reading “June 2023 – Veil of Sadness”

April 2023 – Starting Over
April was a big month as it felt like one door was finally closing and another was opening. The first 6 days were spent preparing for my operation. I wasn’t sure how much mobility I would have, so I wanted to ensure that I had plenty of meals and food prepped just in case IContinue reading “April 2023 – Starting Over”
March 2023 – Clinging on
March felt like I was just about clinging onto life and just able to keep all the balls I juggle in the air. The the beginning of the months, I yet again found myself counting down the days until I had a period of annual leave/days off. Doing this has never felt comfortable to meContinue reading “March 2023 – Clinging on”
February 2023 – The final goodnight
I’ve delayed writing February’s blog post as I know I will find it emotional, but here goes!! The month started with another physio session on my knee, when I say physio session, no hands-on physical physio was done – it was mainly me saying that despite resting it and doing the exercise given to meContinue reading “February 2023 – The final goodnight”
January 2023 – Professional Avoider
The first month of 2023 is done & dusted, despite wanting to make changes in my life for 2023, these never materialised for one reason or another but one big reason is that I’m a professional avoider, more on that later! The month started full throttle as I began my new role at the uniContinue reading “January 2023 – Professional Avoider”
December 2023 – Time to breathe
The first half of December was counting down the days until I could have some time off as I had been for most of November! During this time I also applied for a new role at the university for a seconded position to replace a colleague who had recently moved to a different role withinContinue reading “December 2023 – Time to breathe”
November 2022 – Friendship Matters
November seemed to go by in a blur of working and sleeping. Not much to say about this month as it’s been all about getting my head down and working! I’m not one for wishing days away, however halfway through the month, I started counting down the days until I could rest, not just theContinue reading “November 2022 – Friendship Matters”
September 2022 – Emotional Rollercoaster
Another month down and I don’t really know where this month has gone if I’m honest! As I type this I’m looking back at my calendar pages of what I did last month and some of the things feel like a lifetime ago. I got to spend time with friends who are near and farContinue reading “September 2022 – Emotional Rollercoaster”
June 2022 – Don’t stop peddling
Halfway through the year already, in a blink of an eye… where is the year going! As always the month of June has been a whirlwind of activity. At the uni, the semester has now finished so no lecturing for me until the beginning of September but that doesn’t mean it gets easier as weContinue reading “June 2022 – Don’t stop peddling”
May 2022 – Conditional Living
May for me has been quite an emotionally tough month for many different reasons but also a month of realisations and lightbulb moments too. As I mentioned last month, I had planned to do some daily actions for 100 days leading up to my 45th birthday – when I thought of the challenge, I thoughtContinue reading “May 2022 – Conditional Living”
