Mud, mud, glorious mud! As the song lyric says about mud, ‘There’s nothing quite like for cooling the blood’. I would like to add clearing the mind to that! That’s exactly what happened to me at the weekend – it felt SO good to get out for a long 10K trail run, and then again [...]
Have the courage to truly be yourself! Align with the essence of what makes you the unique individual you are – all those kinks, wrinkles, nuances, quirks, whatever they are. Follow your passions and trust your instincts, your intuition. That inner knowing – that gut feeling. Connect with all that fires you up when your [...]
‘Say YES to everything!’ That was the advice my mother shared with me 17 years ago, as I was divorcing my then husband, bringing our 20-year relationship to an end. Why did she tell me to do this? It was because I simply had to re-start my life. From scratch. My life had, unbeknownst to [...]
Holy Moly! That’s another week gone! I love writing material for my blog and I really do try my hardest to do this in a timely fashion each week, but writing blog content is not all that I love – I love doing SO much, which means most weeks become packed to the hilt with [...]
Narcissistic behaviour is NOT acceptable – EVER! What do I know about narcissism? To be truthful, I only discovered the term in recent years, but when I did, I recognised it – it is something that has been in my life for 37 years. I have a lot to say on the subject, however, in [...]
Cor blimey, mate! Where does the time go? I don’t know about you, but my days and weeks are flying by at a rather scary rate of knots! One minute it’s the weekend and then suddenly it’s ‘hump day’ (or bin day at our house) aka Wednesday, at which point you realise that you’ve only [...]
💥💥💥 Whoopee doo! January is over – February is here…already! 💥💥💥 How did that happen?! January usually feels SUCH a long month, and it always seems to start on Boxing Day, but this January seemed to fly by! Does anyone else feel the same?! As regular readers of my blog posts know, I was more [...]
I’ve hit the ‘100’ milestone! 💯 Yesss! I’ve done it! I’ve hit the 100 milestone – that’s 100 parkruns, not my age! It’s been a long time coming in many respects, as I did my first parkrun on 3 November 2018. I know the date, not because I have some kind of computer-like memory, but [...]
Shouting it out loud and clear – 2023 is a positive year! Wow, I’m a poet and I don’t know it! I will digress before I even start, as poetry has now just jumped into my head. It’s not something I read much of, to be honest; sometimes I can read poems and get into [...]
Thank gawd it’s 2023 – what say you?! I was so pleased to close the door on 2022, and whilst we are only into the second week of 2023, it is proving to be a far better year already. Thank goodness for that, is all I can say – or words to that effect! Last [...]
