Wind down week and keeping plants alive......

 Double post this weekend guys! (only just got round to posting my Halloween one) 


This week has been a mostly chilled one with a week of lighter work outs and more rest before I kick start my first hard week of three, I'm going to be following a three weeks on one week off system, so 3 weeks of harder efforts and then an easier week, the easier week will still have runs and rides, just a lower intensity. 

This week I have also been working on my plants, I dropped a small fortune on plant care stuff, pots and an orchid but I finally have everything i need to complete my indoor gardener badge, so all i have to do now is keep them alive till January....

If you're wondering what i am on about talking about badges, I am working through the Rebel Badge book a book that gives you tasks to do to earn badges much like scouts or guides but for adults! Its a fun little book with a great community around it. 


So one expensive shopping trip and a huge mess later I have all my plants and pots in place, now lets just keep them alive! 

These are Dave(Larege white pot on table), Themisticles (pink pot), Bodkin (small white pot on table), Lampon (large pot on the floor), Fluffy (the cactus) and Rene (Small white pot on the floor) Yes i named all my plants

And this is Clive (the orchid), Merlin (grey pot) and Hector (pot with the glasses), Clive, Rene and Hector are all offspring of Themisticles who is a Scarlet star, they only bloom once but grow pups which can be transplanted and grow, so fingers crossed they grow big and strong like there parent plant. 



As for the rest of the week it was just life really, next week is going to have a bigger adventure as we head off to wales and I hopefully get some feedback, and a bigger week of workouts! 

For now I am wrapping it up there to go and get coffee and make some candles! 

Thanks for reading, 
Scribble back 
Love

Solo bike ride and Squirrels

 Hey guys,  Welcome back to the adventure blog! A weekly Blog where I share with you my adventures through sports, fitness, life and everything in between! This week I want to share my first solo bike ride, well it's sort of my first solo bike ride.  Okay so background check, its not my first time riding solo on a bike, I use to do it to and from work, and I've been round the park several times on my own, and growing up back home I was always out on the bike, but this was my first solo bike ride that was just a bike ride, not a commute, but a self navigated bike ride, on a road bike, by myself.  I am not as confident a cyclist as i was growing up, but growing up I always stuck to paths or trails and there were a lot less cars, where I live now is busier for cars and I generally try to stay off the path unless its a cycle path, this has meant working my way through building my confidence on a bike.  Chris has taken me out on several bike rides, some long ones som...

Where did my baby go?

(contains amazon associates link)  Hey guys, it's been a while!  My last post was a little before my return to work, were are now half way through  2025!  So where are we? Well little man isn't so little, at 16 months he is in full blown toddler hood, we walk, run, climb, scream, babble, and have super sass (gets that from me), we get frustrated at not being able to do things but want to be into doing everything! He has been at nursery for about 7 months now and has fully settled in found his confidence and loves every day! We have had our fair share of illnesses, accidents and art work and we are currently preparing for the transition to the next room.  As for me, I've settled into being a Mama and a Teacher, I've reflected on my life and started making adjustments, I have also had my fair share of illnesses (though not as many as the boy) and I'm surviving, not quite thriving, but getting closer to the threshold.  What have we been up to? Lately? trying t...
