Still ill.....but i got my new book!!

 Hi guys Jess here, 

and as the title of this blog states, I'm still Ill. It is now sitting on my chest and in my sinuses, I'm hoping this means its the end, but as I have still be battling the symptoms it has meant another week of no running or cycling, or any workouts for that matter other that a short stretch. 


This week started off with fatigue then quickly turned to lungs full of what felt like tar, generally the mornings are worse that the evenings, but the hardest battle is the pain in my throat and ears! I'm still on just about everything hoping to kick it and trying to get rest and take it easy, the down side is I'm also constantly exhausted, so where i should have had days off to do festive things i was instead just lounging around feeling sorry for myself, although we did go to the secret speakeasy party, mostly because we had already paid for the tickets and secondly because it wasn't a party party, it was a sit down and listen to chilled music kinds party. 


This week i have also had to cancel my Thai massage and going to see a sloth because of not feeling well, we are hoping to hit some garden centres and pick up Christmas bits tomorrow so i hopefully feel a little more festive...... Overall this month hasn't gone to plan, but I did get my new rebel badge book and I'm excited to work through the second lot of badges!!



I think i am going to sit and reevaluate the rest of the month

So that's that week, sorry guys another unexciting one from me, next week hopefully all being well we should be doing something exciting. 

Thanks for reading, 

Scribble back

Best wishes 

Jessie

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...

Merry Christmas and here's to 2024

 As 2023 comes to an end and the Festivities have been in full swing, I want to take a moment to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy new year.  This year has been filled with mini adventures, the challenges of pregnancy, the journey of navigating a new job role and fitting in general health and well being as well. As for 2024 well that is a whole new adventure!  In my older years i have never really been one for new years resolutions but i do like the idea of making commitments and agreements with myself, and each year they are usually just things that i want to continue working on to continue to support and improve myself, so rather than giving up chocolate or hitting the gym every day I usually focus on things like, lets make sure i focus on my sleep routine, take on more adventures and make sure i move a little daily.  These are normally my big three, there are may things I want to work on and goals come and go, things change and plans get adjusted, fo...

Lets start a new adventure.

 This is only the second time I have had to face him crying as I left him. The first made sense, he was overtired and hadn't napped. This one was a different cry, this was a protest because he knew I was going to walk out the door and not be there. This one hurt me. I do however have the benefit of seeing it from both sides, there is a skill to dropping your child off at nursery the first few times, you have to remain calm, confident, make it quick.  If you linger too long, look nervous or get upset they pick up on it. Quick drop offs help everyone, parents don't linger and get upset as long, babies are easier to settle and nursery workers get more time bonding.  Seeing the sadness hurts though, the cry is different, it hits heart strings you never knew you owned, and you hold back the tears till you're out of view. I cried all the way into town and then some more whilst I ate fried egg on toast.  Deep down I know he's fine, I know he will settle and get distracted a...
