A Memorable May

Yep. That's right. Another month has managed to slip by. Although, on reflection, what a month May turned out to be!

Did you miss my other monthly recaps?

I had a feeling that this month was going to be a wonderful one. And it sure was.  Filled with fun, festivities, fitness and food – what more could a gal want?

There were house developments - including new blinds...

As well as a Moroccan inspired party of my very own.

And let's not forget some local Canberra sightseeing....

As well as a chilly night watching the rugby.

Funnily enough, although I did a lot of cooking this month, I only turned to the Mystery Box once!!!

Oh well - there is always next month right???

And in fitness news, May was filled with my MOVE it, TONE it, DRINK it challenge - designed to encourage 1 hours of activity a day, a focus on pushups and situps, and accountability for drinking more water. I am pleased to say that I thoroughly enjoyed the challenge, so much so that I have a new personal challenge I will be launching tomorrow (which Mr BBB is also taking part in!). Stay tuned.

But for now…. t’was certainly a Memorable May - and here's to a Jammin' June!

What about you? Was your May memorable?

  7. I notice Born to Run in amongst all those books. Have you read it yet? I read it not long ago and absolutely devoured it.

    And I still think you rock the brunette.

    Looking forward to the next challenge.
