Today’s been a better day than yesterday although I have found it hard to settle doing anything for more than an hour or so. I didn’t manage the gym this morning but did make it to the lake for a swim which was good and got complimented on my front crawl technique & given someContinue reading “Sunday 1st May 2022”

Today has been a tough day, woke up feeling sad and then found out that a lady who I helped years ago when I was doing some business coaching passed away this week after a short illness and the tears flowed and not really stopped all day. I’ve tried to busy myself with housework toContinue reading “Saturday 30th April 2022”

Yay, I made it to the gym this morning!! It was tough though and I was close to tears a few times during the workout. I find it so hard not to think about how fit I was in the past and compare myself to how unfit I feel now. I keep telling myself thatContinue reading “Wednesday 27th April 2022”

Quite a chilled day, an early wake up with Sophiecat but managed to get an hour in after I fed her. Today I went to the lake for a swim the water was around 13.4°C so was still cold when you first get in but once you are acclimatised to it then it was lovely,Continue reading “Sunday 24th April 2022”

Was woken by the birdsong today, what a wonderful way to wake up, for 90% of the year I sleep with my bedroom window open as I like the room to be on the cool side and love to be woken up naturally by the light and birdsong, doesn’t happen very often as I generallyContinue reading “Sunday 10th April 2022”

A slower day today as working at home on my own business, still an early one as Sophiecat is just not good at sleeping in! Put her off until about 5.30am! Had a few things that I needed to get done this morning before I went to meet a friend for coffee, I’ve known thisContinue reading “Wednesday 6th April 2022”

Another quiet day here, got up pretty early again due to Sophiecat being demanding but that was ok as it meant I got some work done before I went swimming. The lake was glorious today, colder than last week but felt warmer overall and the sun was shining which meant I caught some rays too,Continue reading “Sunday 3rd April 2022”

Today has been a glorious day, not just weatherwise but overall!! Sophiecat didn’t wake me up too early considering the clock sprung forward overnight. I got up, made some coffee and cracked on with my lecturing prep for my sessions tomorrow. I was done by the time I went swimming. At the lake, the waterContinue reading “Sunday 27th March 2022”

Now that the mornings are lighter, Sophiecat is waking me up at some god forsaken hour which isn’t great when you have fatigue and need as much sleep as you can get! This morning it was a little after 5am and then couldn’t get back to sleep! So I got up and cracked on withContinue reading “Sunday 20th March 2022”

My alarm was set for 7.40am this morning but Sophiecat had other ideas and woke me up just before 6am, I fed her and did come back to bed but couldn’t settle so decided to just get up and crack on with some work. Feeling a little better mentally today, although tears have fallen aContinue reading “Sunday 13th March 2022”
