Food for everyone to eat.

While grocery shopping today, we were looking at the wide variety of foods available – that we couldn’t eat due to various intolerances or allergies – and my girl says, “Mum, when I grow up, I’m going to make foods that are safe for everyone to eat and I’m going to sell them so that everyone has something to eat.”
That’s my girl :)

Supercharged is here... Time to get reading...


Yay! It’s here :)
Time for a little bit of light reading.
I’m almost half way through the final stage of New Rules of Lifting for Women, and it’s pretty much kicking my butt. May I just mention that I’m not the biggest fan of high reps, but I’m also just being a sook ;)
I am really looking forward to moving on to this next program, it seems to be definitely leveled up from NROL4W, and that’s pretty exciting.
Making the decision to stop being scared and start lifting heavy things was one of the best things I have ever done. I did it for me, and me only. I don’t lift for competitions, I don’t lift to be ‘the strongest’, I lift because I enjoy it and I like what it is doing – even the occasional DOMS is all worth it.

This is where it begins.

With a handstand.
In my backyard.
I think the girl-child did a relatively good job with the iPhone.
This is me. I’m short, I’m a little weird and I like to lift things – heavy things.
I love my husband, I love my kids and I generally love my cat (except maybe when she runs away at bedtime).
This is my space for my everyday chat – food, fitness, fun and life in general.
And handstands.
Lots of handstands.
