    Morning all,

    The total PAD for 15 August 2023 was £61.50

    My friend sent me this and it made me chuckle so I thought I'd share it (apologies if we have completely different sense of humour 🤦🏾‍♀️😂). But it also made me realise how much we have to make the most of it...

    I keep putting too much in my EF, so will be less moving forwards. Think you have added your PAD amount for today as yesterday's total?

    Thanks for pointing that out! Oh sleep deprivation is really not the greatest is it? 🤦🏾‍♀️😂. I actually managed some sleep last night so I'll be posting the correct PAD for yesterday and I have corrected the one for the 15 August to read as £61.50. 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

    Morning all,

    The total PAD for 16 August 2023 was £40.62

    We all get things wrong (exhibit A is my deprived mistakes that I keep making as shown above), but I think I'm slowly learning to not be so hard on myself, and that has been a liberating feeling. And it's down to this quote that I discovered last year and printed and stuck on my bedroom wall in recent months. It reminds me it's okay to stumble, as long as I continue on my journey...
