Get your guesses in for tomorrow, same rules apply; guess the number of steps I’ll do on my first try of the day on a stepper and in...

Day 1 of the Stepper Challenge and I managed 30 steps before needing a break. I did more later but I won't reveal how much as I don't want to sway things for tomorrow. The closest guess got a little prize in their inbox so check to see if it was you!
Now taking guesses for tomorrow! Higher or lowe...

Stepping challenge!
I have a new stepper and need to get back to using one. I’m super nervous as it’s been so long. So I’ve decided to make it fun.
To take part send me a message with your prediction on how many steps I can do on it tomorrow, in one session, as well as text/image/video motiv...

I am confined again. Boyfriend is unwell, just a cold probably, but he looks and feels like crap. Unfortunately I had planned my second trip out today, this time to see friends. But without help getting ready or in/out of a car, I can’t go anywhere. I can’t even play nurse as I’m kinda useless...

Yesterday I left the house for something non-medical for the first time in ages. Like, literally, months I think. It was to light a candle in a church for a recent death in the family. I’m not religious but he was. Then we had lunch overlooking a river.

Hi everyone, I'm back from a few days personal time.
I've got quite a few messages to work through, so bear with me, I'm on it!

I want to do more. But, like from home. What can I volunteering for to make a difference?
There's a company that does online English lessons in China. That looks interesting, so I have applied.
Any other ideas?

Hi all. First off let me apologise for not telling you all about my personal trainer yesterday as planned. I'm sure you're aware that Queen Elizabeth II died and that we were all sort of pre-warned. So I was watching the news all day, like many others, waiting for the sad news.
Anyway, personal t...

I'm very sleepy so I'm going to bed, but I can't wait to tell you about my new personal trainer! She's going to work on helping me regain strength alongside my usual physiotherapy. I'll tell you all about her tomorrow!!

I hate being ill. Not because I'm worse but because I get better. But it's only temporary. I don't know if my immune system is busy elsewhere or it's the increased body temperature, but when I'm unwell I can walk more and move more easily. It's very frustrating. Anyway, I have a cold. How are you...

How do you exercise when you can't actually do anything? Isn't it boring?
So, I think this question means how do I exercise with limited motion and I get the idea of it being boring, because you can't really get into it like a long run or workout where you really push.
So for me it...

Sooooo, a couple of days ago I decided to stop taking antidepressants. I have been lowering the dose for a few weeks now and finally took the plunge and came off them.
I did it because life is alright right now and I don’t want to be using them for the rest of my life.
It’s been a bit of an em...

I know I made a joke about the universe disagreeing with my choices. I was feeling a bit better today, and it’s definitely not Covid, so the lift people came around to do a survey. However, on his documentation, it said stairlift and not through the floor lift. He is not trained to do that type. ...
