Mrs. B Challenge 40 - 27 Complete a Penny challenge

Challenge number 9!

27. Complete a Penny challenge 

There are loads of these around this January and I say go for it!  This is mine from last year and ‘I completed it mate!’

I did it slightly differently than intended, I didn’t stick to the running order. If I had more money, I ticked off the bigger amount for that day, so my ticks through the year weren’t uniform but sporadic! But that’s ok! 

Here’s some more info on this particular Penny challenge - 

from Money Supermarket

Happy New Year to you all and hopefully this year I’ll keep ticking the challenges off 😊

TTFN, I’ll keep you posted!

Mrs. Bs Challenge 40 - 30 - Go for a spa day

Challenge number 8 completed!

30. Go for a spa day

This was back in November and my best friend and I booked as a surprise for her mums 60th birthday. We booked Old Thorns for a weekend, it was a great dinner, bed and breakfast deal / perfect for what we were looking for! Covid made things a little old, we had to book swim and spa slots, but it didn’t take away from the magic of the weekend.

We also managed to upgrade to an apartment last minute, and it was the best thing ever. It meant after our evening meal, we were able to go back to our apartment, sit in our pjs and drink bubbles!

A brilliant weekend all round ❤️

Onto the next one!

I’ll keep you posted, TTFN.

Mrs. Bs Challenge 40 - 29 - Learn a new skill

Challenge number 7!

29. Learn a new skill

So in September, after meeting the wonderful Dawn in August when I birthed my drum, I went ahead and booked in to complete Reiki 1. I have always wanted to explore healing, I’ve been told many times I have the gift/skill/calling, but haven’t done a great deal with it, except ignore it! After meeting Dawn, and hearing all about her healing journey, her teaching, her life - I knew this was the time. I was so drawn to Dawn and knew I wanted her to teach me. 

I’ve had an odd relationship with reiki, I tried it a few times and just didn’t like it, it hurt me and the person doing it didn’t even lay his hands on me.  In the last year I’ve had distance healing which has been wonderful and also hands on reiki healing with my friend Hannah. These two experiences had restored my faith in healing! 

It was the most wonderful weekend, full of self care and self love. I absolutely loved every moment. I even got to practise on a real life body and the feedback was amazing! 

My plan is to go on and complete reiki 2 next year, so watch this space! 

I’ll keep you posted!

Mrs. B Challenge 40 - 23 Complete a reading challenge

Challenge number 6!

23 - Complete a reading challenge. 

This year I set myself a goal of 35 books this year, this was my challenge and I’ve completed it!  

I have a ‘highlight’ on Instagram (the small dots on your profile) which contains each book and the score I gave it. I don’t score real life books, because you can’t score someone’s life story.

Now to decide if I ‘up’ my challenge for next year!

I’ll keep you posted!

Mrs. B Challenge 40 - 22 - Get a Tattoo

So here is Challenge number 5, albeit it was back in the summer! 

22. Get a moon/witch/triple goddess tattoo

For years I have followed Samo’s work, from his gallery to his tattooing and knew he was the one I wanted to complete this piece of art for me.  

This one was a bit of a whirlwind and a case of being in the right place at the right time. Samo posted on his instagram he had a rare space for a tattoo, I was off and the universe was on my side! This was designed within hours and in 24 hours time it was permanently on my body.  I love it!

You can find Samo here…. Instagram As well as the tattoos he’s a pretty awesome human and you can keep up with his art and other news here

Here’s some better pictures! I’m sorry my self portraits of my arm can leave a little to be desired!

Thank you Samo ❤️

and there’s another one ticked off the list!

TTFN, I’ll keep you posted xx
