Go To Bed Earlier

30 days to a happier, healthier me - day 12

I can sleep ten hours a night, given the opportunity but that opportunity rarely presents itself. Especially at the moment as Whitesnake has to cover some later shifts and I pick him up when he's finished. I've been heading to bed anywhere from 10pm to 1am...eek and it really stuffs up the old body clock.

Anyway, we seem to getting back more in to a routine and we're planning on getting to bed a bit earlier and at a more regular time, so we can be up earlier in the mornings to go on our walks. It's the middle of Summer in New Zealand so the earlier we can get out the better, not only for us but for Coco.

See you tomorrow
Sweet dreams

I Love My Blog

day 12- how you found out about blogger and why you have one




Me when I first started blogging  


I found out about blogger from my good friend, Missy. She started a blog a few years back and encouraged me to do the same. I was unsure of what I would write about in the beginning but once I started, there was no stopping me.

I started blogging to connect with others. I was feeling very lonely and lost at the time. I began writing about funny things that happened to me during the day and really enjoyed the way I could make others laugh through my writing. Missy also introduced me to Friday Flash 55 which encouraged me to write a short story each week of only 55 words. You can read my first 55 here. This took me on a different blogging journey, I would continue to write about my day but I used the 55 stories as a way of processing things that had happened to me in the past and putting them into a short story. Once I started opening up, I found I needed another outlet and this was the time I began writing poetry on my blog as well.

I love blogging, I can sit down at the computer (often with no idea of what I will write) and the words flow out of me. I'm often surprised when I read back what I've written because I hadn't realised I was feeling a certain way or I had anything to say.

I started blogging to connect with others but it actually took me on a journey of reconnection with myself.  A journey I am loving and will continue to blog about for many years to come.

Happy blogging
