Well it’s now 2016, shit how did that happen? Time fly’s
when you’re having fun ;-)
It’s been a while between blogs, to be brutally honest, I’ve
written and then re written new posts so many times in my head that I can’t
count how many times I have sat down to physically write something then either
drawn a blank or started writing something and ended with it going round and
round in circles… I guess that describes perfectly where my head is at times.
I swear at times I need continual circus themed music playing
to be the sound track in my head! I guess I blame part of this on the 1. Chemo
brain (it’s a great scape goat!), 2. my ongoing anger for cancer – seriously it
just make me so pissed off that so many people have to put up with this stupid
disease, 3. my promise to myself that I want something positive to come from my
journey and I guess finally…. number 4 (If you have ever actually talked to me
in person you’ll understand this) I will often have so much going on in my head
that it just fly’s out at random times!
So 2016 has officially kicked off, we have now been here for
2 weeks! Did I make any new years
resolutions? Nope!
I promised myself that I wasn’t going to make a list of
things to “do” this year… I’m pretty experienced now in the art of “working to
plan B or C or even D” to know that nothing ever goes to perfect plan, with
that I decided that rather than making a list, I would “just do shit” (*snort, yep, shit, in connection to the
Bowel Cancer thing seems to be a pretty appropriate word to use).
So this year’s first “get shit done” is to start training
with the focus of completing the 50km Karipoti Mountain bike race in March…. Watch
this space for more details… trust me, I have a feeling this will feature a lot
in coming weeks.
My second “get shit done” is going to be trying to increase
the awareness of Bowel Cancer… yes, watch this space, this may involve full
audience participation, which means you! It also means I need to keep this blog
updated on a more regular basis, so stay tuned, hold on tight and get ready to
come along on an interesting journey.
So on that note, thanks for reading this post, for finding
this blog and for coming back.
Stay tuned… RAG is
back x
