Impermanence

Life is awesome! It's busy and fun and full of cool people and positive energies, yay! It's just over a year now since my remission news and the beginning of stem cell transplant planning, and now here I am 7 months post transplant and it all seems like a distant memory. I have had 2 years off work and it it is 3 years since I last caught a baby :( BUT - I am alive and well so- no moaning!

Yeah! I had a new tattoo, well to be precise me and my dear heart had matching tattoos that say 'impermanence' in sanskrit (I really hope it does say that and not just 'twat' or such like!) Anyway this has been on the cards for a couple of years but have been distracted by imminent death, neutropenia etc! Now here it is and I love it. It sums up for me the acceptance of our impermanence in this embodiment, but also the impermanence of any situation, good or bad - "this too shall pass"



In other news - the new job is going really well, have had a mix of short and long shifts and my energy levels are totally fine, which is reassuring. Bumble and Bee cafe is the brainchild of my best friend from waaaay back and it is basically a fab place to be (or BEE lol me!) I could not have asked for a more lovely way to ease back into work. 

I am also doing some online study on my way to a career as life coach / nutritional advisor / NLP practitioner....so watch this space :)

Unfortunately my cafe work has ignited a new found passion for baking and uber breakfast recipes......which is fun, but massively fattening! Therefore another juice fest is on the horizon....I still believe that we can have it all... literally! Surely, juice 5-6 days a week and then have an epic eggs benedict at the weekend, that's ok, right? 80/20?

So - I hav been feeling fab apart from an irritating dull ache in my right shoulder and arm. It had been going on so long I started to get worried and asked for a scan....however (touch wood) my little brother with his newly flourishing massage therapy skill seems to have cured me! hurrah! so I may well cancel the scan!


LOOK at my dog! she is properly ace! Look at the wisdom she radiates! Yeah anyway just needed to share :)
