Holiday

I’ve just got back from holiday. I went to Mayrhofen skiing. I didn’t injure myself this year, but my ski school group was small, allowing the instructor to ski our boots off. I am so wrecked I could barely lift my suitcase into the transfer bus. Skiing is a full body sport. Definitely need to […]

The struggle to art

If you’re struggling to get started with your art, give yourself time off. Having resolved to be all around awesome, do all the things and be fit for my holiday…. I came down with the flu and spent all the time I wasn’t at work sleeping and/or feeling very sorry for myself. Everytime I went […]
