So back on a beautiful sunny morning in May I decided to go for my long run, it was the perfect day for it I felt. It all started so well plodding along listening to my podcast watching the world go by on my run. Of course, me being me this calm relaxed enjoyment ofContinue reading “My apology to the Sunday riverside strollers”

My leap of faith
It’s been a while but there is a good reason for that. After lockdown I really questioned my life choices and ended up doing a 360 on my career. I decided to go back to university do a Masters degree in Physiotherapy. I know completely bonkers, what was I thinking putting myself through the traumaContinue reading “My leap of faith”
Physio Talk
Over lockdown thanks to a connection through my blog, I had the fantastic opportunity to do some virtual talks for groups of physiotherapists and occupational therapists (OT) along with other individuals with CP and similar injuries. The physios and OTs were keen to improve the transition of patients from paediatric (child) to adult services soContinue reading “Physio Talk”
The Lake District on Crutches… not the one
Welcome to my latest hair-brained idea-the Lake District on Cuthbert the crutches, that was quite the experience. If you want my honest advice I would not do it again with Cuthbert in tow despite how much they tried to help. So let’s go from the beginning The Journey Firstly, it’s a long way-I know IContinue reading “The Lake District on Crutches… not the one”
Rubbish
Downright rubbish. That’s what. So you know how I was just celebrating being rid of Bill the Boot and excited to be out enjoying the world re-opening. Life had other plans and it is now a mismatched déjà vu. I have fractured my right knee. Clearly my right side was just fed up with myContinue reading “Rubbish”
Facing Reality
Hello friends. I know it has been a while so apologies for the lack of brain waves filling your lives recently (although I know you have all been far too busy making the most of the pubs reopening to notice so all is good). Thankfully I am now rid of Bill the Boot-that was justContinue reading “Facing Reality”
Bill the Boot and the Brownie Bakeathon
Welcome to Lockdown 3…. don’t panic – I can help you because Yazzi’s Kitchen has reopened after its Christmas break to continue baking brownies to raise money for Scope (a brilliant disability equality charity). If you are anything like me and need chocolate every single day, then a January in Lockdown is the ultimate timeContinue reading “Bill the Boot and the Brownie Bakeathon”
CHOCOLATE BROWNIES
Who needs chocolate? I know a silly question – if you don’t need chocolate 24/7 then I am not sure why you are here to be honest. If you need something to fuel your lockdown home workouts or Netflix marathons you have come to the right place. Now that I have your attention I canContinue reading “CHOCOLATE BROWNIES”
Scars
Scars are there to tell a story (even if it is one that I don’t remember!) The issue I face is that I don’t put two and two together, when I fall I just get up and keep going, I don’t think about the consequences and the fact that the cuts and bruises I haveContinue reading “Scars”
BeLikeYazzi
Something a bit different from me but this is the best method I have found for cheering myself up when I need to laugh. Turn up the volume and put on a good tune. I heard this song whilst out running recently and the lyrics really resonated, despite being knackered at the end of myContinue reading “BeLikeYazzi”
