  • 14 Weeks…

    That’s about how long there is until my next work party. Can you believe Christmas is only 16 weeks away? This year has gone so fast! I have loved having such gorgeous weather this summer. It’s been beautiful. But can I let you in on a secret? I can’t wait for Autumn to fully hit.…

  • Smashing September!

    Hey friends! I know, I know. It’s been a while. I’d say I took a small hiatus really. The first half of the year was just so crazy! I needed a rest!! It ended up being a bit longer than I anticipated and I’ve spent the last week mostly in bed with a nasty cold……

  • We’re going to Ibiza…

    Last week was the week myself, Hubby and our bestie have been waiting for since February when we booked our trip. It’s been in the works for years – us whisking her away for a short holiday away from her 2 lovely kids and a manic work schedule and honestly… It was brilliant. I didn’t…

  • Just a quickie…

    I’ve been noticing a change in the mirror lately and was intrigued. Basically I can just see my collar bones, which honestly I’ve never paid much attention to before, but being able to see them (however little of them I can see) makes a massive difference and my shoulders are more toned (thanks to Bob…

  • Go Live!

    10 days ago I posted a round up of my first week in my 6 week plan. Out of the last 10 days I’ve spent the last 5 not following that plan… Hubby and I went to London last week for three days during which time, thanks to a happy accident of leaving it at…

  • My 6 week plan: week 1

    Last week I realised there was only 6 weeks before heading to Ibiza. The trip was booked in January and I’m really looking forward to it, but admittedly the first few months of this year just did not go like I wanted. But that’s life and we move on. So, with 6 weeks left to…

  • Be selfish

    Firstly, I’m a massive fan of Shaun T. His workouts are amazing but what I really love about him is his positive, inspiring outlook. It’s such a nice change to see such powerful and positive messages being shared. And his last one is about being selfish. When he says this he means be selfish by…

  • Changing engines in flight

    If I need motivation or inspiration my first port of call is usually Tumblr. It’s like a library of whatever you need right there. It doesn’t matter what I’m trying to find or inspire myself to do, you can find it there. I’ve been using it a lot lately, as a much needed source of…

  • The Lies Depression Tells

    Depression is cruel and although I’ve dealt with it for most of my life it’s been a rare thing that it hasn’t been manageable. I can certainly count those times on one hand and am thankful that I have support and love from people in my life to help me through. 2013 didn’t have a…
