4/30 for me today please.
What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?5 -
I would say carry on, you are still giving your body a rest. As maman suggests, add the days you missed in January to whatever your target is in February if you want to do the full 31 days. Good luck. XCuppaTea said:4/31 for me please.To anyone who has done DJ - what if you have mishap days along the way. Do you just carry on and do the best you can or stop.
