Another year gone...

So another few weeks have passed since my last blog post. Fitness Nationals, Christmas, New Year & birthday have all flown by!


First stop was Leicester and the National Finals to the Fitness Awards! I was super excited about these, and then the germs hit.... I went down with a horrible chest infection just before I headed up north, and to be honest, I felt rough as hell the entire night!! The conference was good, but unfortunately showed up my massive lacking of confidence nowadays. And the night out was awesome, couldn't have asked to spend it with a better bunch, drinking left over red wine we nabbed from the dinner at 4am in the hotel, pretty much sums it up! Plus none of us will ever forget the golden horse.... now a permanent Christmas decoration at the gym!


Carried on my injections over the Christmas break, and trust me they don't get any easier!! They still hurt like biatches!! The festive period was a very homely affair, with us appreciating the fact all four of us are still round the dinner table this year. However cliche that sounds, true fact, three of us could have died in the last 365 days! So very appreciative of the fact we're all still here! Very quiet day, completely 100% different to last years.... where I was hugging a bucket the entire day wanting to dig a deep hole and not resurface. Fell asleep at 5... woke Boxing Day, I can only assume I was a tad tired! Seeing as I did the exact same on Boxing Day too!!


New year came and went, finally no medical issues on the eves, to content with! And finally we reached my 28th.... another day I was dreading! Having spent two days in over it last year, it was amazing to not be up there for it, and be in work running spin instead! Plus the mother made me 28 cupcakes.... Need I say more, I enjoyed my birthday!! Birthday night out on the other hand... yet again I feel let down by so called mates. I don't know why I even get my expectations up anymore! Happens every year, and even more so over the last 18months! But hey ho, it was nice catching up with my two friends who did make the effort! And that's one of life's biggest things I've learnt this year.... who my true friends are!! Roll on 2017.... healthy and happy 🙏🏻 xxx
