It's Monday: Check-In Time




Linking up with The Sunday Post hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer and It's Monday! What are You Reading? hosted by Sheila from Book JourneyIn Sheila's absence, share your Monday post on twitter #IMWAYR.




This week was an emotional one. A few people have asked if they can share my post about being the mother of an angel. The answer is a heartfelt yes. Share away ... it may touch someone you know experiencing loss. If we talk and share our experiences with death and grief, we learn and grow, we make it safe and 'comfortable' to share pain and we foster change and healing.    


#FitReaders Weekly Check-In


 
#FitReaders co-hosted by Felicia @ Geeky Bloggers Book Blog and Jen @ That’s What I’m Talking AboutFitReaders is a great way to stay motivated, accountable and it's more fun having bloggy friends to check in with. If you also have a fitbit and want to add me, let me know :)  

I started the week well but then the wheels fell off and I finished well under my target. No excuses ... I couldn't be bothered
