Learning more lessons about myself

​Each of my Yoga practises seems to bring me a new lesson! 

Contrary to belief, Yoga isn’t all about looking amazing in poses or how long you can hold a headstand for. Nope, its what you learn about yourself whilst doing it and believe me, I’m learning a heck of a lot! 

It really is magic! 

Remember… 🐴➡💫yoga💫➡🦄 But also, not every practise makes you feel amazing, some can be very draining, like today! 

Trust the journey! Its not all black & white! Believe in yourself! 

Namasté @louiseavilesyoga 🙏

September sun

​True story! 

20°c is always going to be tropical to me! 

Don’t get me wrong, I love to see the sun! Who doesn’t! Its one of those enigmas in life, people are happier when its sunny (unless your a vampire, then that’s just unfortunate! Move to Forks, Washington,USA! I hear its nearly always cloudy there!) 

Like i was saying, I’m happy to see the sun, as long as i can stay cool & its not humid! It’s the humidity that’s the hardest to combat for us MSrs, staying cool can be achieved a number of ways but how do you combat humidity? Answers on a postcard 🤔😉

Making a down day happier…

​Having a pretty shitty day today tbh, so fatigued its unreal! Every day lately seems like I have to push myself harder, just to move my body and that’s without actually thinking about what I want my body to do! That takes even more effort! Long gone are those days that I can do things without thinking!
Right now, MS sucks but guess what, I was looking through my pictures on my phone, to find something that reflects my current mood…
That’s when I saw this photo and everything changed! 

This photo was taken last Sunday when I yes me, drove the furthest I have ever driven (90 miles to South Yorkshire) to see my MS sister & the rest of our faaaamily! Of course I had my DebbieRahRah as SatDeb & navigator. What makes me feel more proud, was that I drove without feeling nervous!
This beautiful lady is my Kindred Spirit, she has helped me through my MS more than she’ll take credit for! I only need to see her smiley face and my mood lifts! 

Thank you Sarah Hickman for making my day cheerier! 

(And I know exactly what she’s saying when she reads this… Either “oh behave” or “stoppppp”)

Princess Olivia & Facebook memories

​Facebook memories showed me these 2 pictures yesterday! Ollie in 2012! 

My initial reaction was total sadness until a friend pointed out to me that its just Ollie’s way of reminding is she’s always with us! 

Miss her so much everyday! Still can’t quite get my head around the fact that she’s gone!

Last Bank holiday weekend before xmas

​We’ve hit that brick wall! You know the one where your putting all your effort into your task in hand, and u just get that sudden surge of, NO MORE! 

So, break time it is with this lovely boy, whilst Deb goes and gets some more pruners! 

This is one hell of a #fuglymanornaturereserve transformation! So huge that the skip is almost full! 

Desperate to take a photo to share with you all but wanna wait till we’ve finished this phase! 

This heat is making it hard for both of us to work in but we’re ploughing through, plenty of breaks & stay well lubricated! 😉 I know! I said it! Couldn’t resist 🙊😂
