Hello readers! Long time no see! (as my mum likes to say). Unfortunately, after almost three years of avoiding COVID-19, our whole family fell prey to it after mum had a visit to hospital. Except ME. I got the flu, because I’m special like that, and to be honest, I think I would have rather…

Hello reader! I hope you are doing well, because I am certainly feeling one step closer to normal these days, and that’s mainly due to being sort of cleared from any imminent pericarditis danger – as in I’m off my meds – and being given the green light to start living like a normal person…

Hello everyone! I hope you’re all keeping well. Things are a bit hairy globally at the moment, so I’m really trying to stick to the mantra of ‘focus on what you can control’. So, some good news on the forefront. At least, I think it’s good news, but it’s good for me unless things go…

Hello everyone! If I may just have a little rant for a moment…. or perhaps a confession? I have hit the wall. In terms of the pericarditis and the associated issues that have stemmed from the COVID-19 vaccination. Despite it all, I am still a huge advocate for people getting vaccinated as I’m pretty sure…

Hello everyone! Where has the time gone? How is it almost Lunar New Year and into the second month of the year? I for one know what has been keeping people occupied this month. 1. Exploding Omicron figures (we are consistently in 5 figures every day) 2. The Djokovic saga (which could have been easily…

Hello readers! Let me start off by wishing you all a very belatedly Merry Christmas; Happy Holidays and a safe and prosperous New Year. It has, unfortunately, not been the best end to 2021 as I had hoped. I last wrote in October, where I was navigating the ‘I had a reaction to the Pfizer’…

Hello reader! I know it’s been a while – we have been in lockdown since mid-July and I’ve been a little too depressed to write. Lockdown this year has been harder than last year as we have had to get through them without government support. They keep telling us that we are in their thoughts…

Hello readers! First off, a sincere apology to Sarah, whom I did promise this article up sooner, but with the extended lockdown in Victoria. I hit a mental health wall and my brain refused to compute (more about this in a seperate post) so instead of forcing it to comply, I just took a week…

Hello readers! I am, again, at the halfway mark of my second round of the Aston Rx 28 day program. Things have been a little slower this time round re weight loss – i.e 5kg down in two weeks as opposed to about 6.2kg last time, but there has been a marked difference in the…

Hello readers! I am super sorry how long my post challenge update has taken me, and you would certainly be forgiven for thinking that I had passed out somewhere along the line and was forgotten about. However, good news! Not only did I make it through the challenge, I did the majority of the classes…

It’s no secret to anyone that weight has been a crazy struggle for me over the years. When I played tennis, it was less of an issue, but as I got older and less active work wise, the waistline just kept growing and growing. Being diagnosed with issues such as PCOS hasn’t really helped although…
