Ciao Firenze! 👋🏻 En route to Roma! Not sure I have the energy to be honest… 😅

Husband always catching my best angles…

Really challenging ride today, waaaaay out of my comfort zone… Big fat curreh en route in celebration.

Up early and porridge gobbled for my first gravel sportive… Day 2 of the monthlies and I’m guna be running on snacks and painkillers 🫠

I’ve got nothing planned for tomorrow expect for a bit of baking and STRADE BIANCHE! YAS.

Ziggy and Cleo channelling all our feels right now ☀️😌

Feeling very grateful to live where I live and a body healthy enough to enjoy it 😌 This spring sunshine is doing good things for the ol’ noggin’!

A spectacular spring Sunday! 🍞 ☀️ 🚲 🐕 👩🏼‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏻 A lot of hard work has gone into getting Ziggy to be able to be home alone so me and my husband can play bikes…my little heart is full 🥰 He got a good off lead run around when we got home and smashed a solid 8/10 for his recall 🤎

It’s works famous canteen 5 piece kind of morning. I come here for peace on my break…yet everyone is blasting NOISE from their phones 😖

Swapped the Zwift for a solo spin. Noice. Legs are silly fatigued from two long days at work but was nice to spin it out.

Todays Zwift hit different 🤢

A colleague said I was “dramatic” overnight… I prefer the term ✨ expressive 💃🏼

Me: finds a pair of trousers that are comfy and stylish therefore proceeds to become fixated on finding said trousers in every colour way on Vinted. So far I’ve got brown, blue and black. Wanted: olive green. 🫠

Two days in a row at day care and this hound honks! But look how snug and sleepy he isssss 🤎

Took some ad hoc annual leave…could’ve sat on my arse, or slobbed in bed with the cats in the sunshine. But nope, sucker for punishment*, so a zwift workout instead. *need to get my arse in gear for Etape Caledonia!

Spent my mornings this weekend making my first ever sourdough loaves. That cheese and spring onion one has just come out the oven and LAWD it smells good. Now to jump on Zwift for balance! 😅

Finished my nightshifts and in celebration I’m going to smash my face into this now okay thanks byyyyeeee. After I’ve fed Ped(r)ough in prep for his first bake this weekend 🤩

Leeeeaaaave it!

Okay day 11 and Ped(r)ough is kicking off 2 hours after a feed. YAY.

No shame in Kesha - Take it Off being the anthem to get me through the zone 6 effort this morning 🥵

Mild regret starting my sourdough journey… It’s day 9 and sweet FA is happening! I just wana make yummy things!

Probably the closest to a cloud inversion I will see round my parts. Bradgate Park was stunning this morning! I have a great deal of house work to do…but a run round here with the Zig was a much better idea!

Ziggy managed just over 3 hours at home alone! Admittedly eyes on the door between little snoozes…but no barking or howling. Hard work getting here but we did it! 🙌🏻

What a fricken wholesome morning. Slow start with my husband. Sourdough fed. Planted a tree in my village @nationalforest.bsky.social 💚

Who knew a pug and a rommie would be such pals!

My sourdough journey has begun! Adding another living thing to my endless maintenance schedule is exactly what I need to do! 🙃

Is it mittleschmerz or appendicitis? The monthly nurse head worry every month!

Short & sweet 30 minute sub threshold training on the Zwift this morning pre night shifts. Getting it in when I can 💪🏻 I am more and more hating shift work these days.

A little Monday loveliness for you. Took #ZiggyTheImmigrantDawg to a secure dog park of the woodland kind; he smashed his recall & literally foamed at the mouth with all the sniffs. It’s the best thing seeing your “broken” rescue dog let loose 🥰

Had a bit of a horrific shift yesterday. A slow Sunday morning was just what was needed. No alarm, good coffee, fresh air. Finding peace in the simple things 💚

One day back at work and my back has flared up again. Saaaake. The thought of doing this job til I’m in my late 60s?! I don’t how how! 🥺
