100 Happy days – Day 60

On May 29, 2025May 29, 2025 By Not a Dr PepperIn Mental Health challengesLeave a comment

I love a great feel-good show! I don't think I've ever watched this show without my eyes getting a bit wet. It blows me away listening to some of the stories about people's lives and the things some people have gone through. Sometimes, it's sad, but there's always a positive side, and I love seeing people …

100 Happy days – Day 59

The weather started to turn today and it was cold and rainy. I wasn't overly excited by the thought of riding my bike home, but I'm so lucky it doesn't take long to warm up, and it only takes 20 minutes to get home. It's also a good way to try and let go of …

How good does this lasagna look? While this post is another focused on food, the key part is actually about teamwork. Cheesy, I know! Pun intended hehe. Mike usually works a ridiculous amount of hours, and often, I'm in charge of cooking and other exciting household duties. Mike helped me cook this dish, which I …

I don't often drink hot drinks in the evening, but now the weather is cooling, I sometimes feel like a hot chocolate. I had my first hot chocolate of the year tonight and I gotta have some marshmallows in there. I love it when they melt and go all gooey. I couldn't find mini marshmallows, …

We had a lovely day. The weather was gorgeous and we went for a walk through town. We got the groceries and a few chores done, followed by a bit of chill time and homemade pizza for tea nom nom. Affro came and had a little snuggle with me, while Mike was at ice hockey …

Today, I did pretty much nothing. In fact, I didn't even get changed out of my pajamas. It was bloody fantasic, and we watched a few fabulous movies too. Life is busy. Sometimes, it's nice to do nothing!

I love my trees, and I couldn't resist this picture when we were out for a brief walk this evening. It was the light reflecting on the river that did it, and then the flash went off  by accident, and I loved the way the branches illuminated the tree. What is your favourite thing about …

This month, I've focused on upping my daily steps. It's not always easy getting steps in when you have a desk bound job. I do what I can by walking Affro before work when I'm going in the office, taking the stairs at work, and walking around the block during my three daily breaks (regardless …

How good are frozen leftovers!? I had an appointment after work and didn't get home until 5:45pm, so I made sure to get the leftover nachos out of the freezer last night. All I had to do when I got home was dish the portions up, heat them up in the microwave, and then add …

Dog memes and silly/cute videos have been on our Facebook and Instagram feeds for the last couple of years. I think it all started from the research we did to find a breed of dog that would suit our family. In fact, one of the videos gave us the inspiration for Affro's name. It's an …
