“Stretch and Play” 🙌🏽

These days Piper always wakes up first and wants to play or draw with me.

I’ve started to combine these morning moments with some much needed stretching.

Almost didn’t do it.

#5x5 #stronglifts 💪

A morning buggy run which was really a walk topped off by drag-a-bike-along.

I’m motivated to beat my previous best. 💪🏽

In 2021 I will do better with fitness.

My next purchase will be some masks to use when running. Too many inconsiderate people out and about for my liking.

Other option is to go running earlier. 😬

You don’t stop playing because you become old.

Instead of building an audience, maybe reframe it as:

  • finding belonging
  • building up your network
  • create trust in who you are
  • creating value
  • making something out of nothing
  • doing something you love
  • creating community 🥰

Play the long game with curation.

It slows you down, until it massively speeds you up.

Entertaining kids during lockdown.

A packet of shiny balloons and a pen = hours of fun.

Seven fears that might be holding you back:

  • Fear of unpredictability
  • Fear of rejection
  • Fear of being unworthy
  • Fear of being insignificant
  • Fear of failure
  • Fear of trusting others
  • Fear of being incapable

I think Piper wants to run like me. She insisted on getting out and running. 😍

Teach kids by leading by example. 👍

Love is when my husband surprises me with a new running buggy.

The pandemic feels bearable right now. 🥰

Hah, well they say, if you aren’t embarrassed of your first versions then you’ve launched too late.

This was one of the early iterations of rosie.land, and even this is more than 6 months into the journey.

Manually copying over content from my Rosieland Substack to a new community space.

It’s a royal pain in the butt.

I’m now Tweeting via micro.blog, mostly to have more ownership of my content.

I think I’d also like to try out their podcasting feature as a casual podcast. 👀

I was meant to do this years ago, better late than never.

This is Piper’s way of saying she’s had enough food.

She always wants to do what Eloise does.

Collaborative art with Piper.

I draw the characters (PJ Masks), she draws the faces.
