It’s been a while….

I needed a break

Quite a long one as it happened. In a nutshell, I took on a lot and something had to give. But that was then; this is now. I’m going to take you through the last 18 months of my life, the approximate time it took me to get to the great place I’m in now.

It’s good to be back.

Personal growth

In the space of the last 18 months, I:

Hit the floor. Not majorly, but enough to take action;
Bounced back up. ‘The ground is a great place to build from’ JK Rowling;
Exercised/not exercised, put on weight. Who hasn’t?;
Recovered in a big way;
Dated. A few times;
Achieved in a big way.

More importantly, the cubs remain to be my everything. The fire in my belly that’s pushed me on, the source of my happiness when I was low and my reason for never giving up. It really hasn’t been easy.

Coming up

I’m going to take you through my period of exhaustion, including the funny times. It wasn’t all bad!

I’m going to talk about home schooling, including why it can be so hard but rewarding.

I’ll talk about dating. In your late 40’s. Online. In lockdown; in a global pandemic.

And (and I know you shouldn’t start a sentence with an and, but, my blog; my rules..) I’m going to talk about family court. In detail. As much as I can, without breaking UK law.
