Hi! Rita here! After I was diagnosed last May, so many things started to make sense. With this new awareness, I’ve worked hard at making some positive changes in my life.

I have become a Nanna for the second time ❤️ A sweet little girl made a quick entry into the world to join our family. She doesn’t have a name yet but my heart is full of joy and love 🥰

📅 Daily Check-in - July 30, 2026 💭 Reflection: "Yesterday I spent updating my coaching logbook. I've only got 3 entries to go and realise I'm not that much further along towards my 25 hours of coaching in order to qualify. Now I need to start finding some people that aren't linked to the course although they're quite hesitant here. My "to do" list for today is quite focussed with a priority on my study as I'm so far behind. Let's hope I can stick to it. Dad spent most of yesterday in bed - we didn't even have our morning cuppa together. Hopefully that improves soon. Our new pet addition - Bean - heritage bantam hen, is absolutely gorgeous although she doesn't appreciate being treated like a chicken during the day. She still gets tucked up in her cage at night in my eldest's bedroom. Too cold for her outside to say the least. I swear she's more human than chook! Yesterday we had a corker of a frost - the water in the pipes in the car had frozen so I couldn't even operate the windscreen washer! That's the coldest we've had here for a while. And winter still has a way to go! I haven't even looked outside this morning - it could be a frost if the cloud cover didn't move in. It was cold enough last night. And yet, what's really weird - the temperatures in other parts of the world - the wildfires raging, the extreme heat patterns. Scary thinking about it! Right - kids are up - I had better skedaddle. Happy Thursday everyone!" 📊 Wellbeing Scores: 😊 Happiness: 7/10 ⚡ Energy: 7/10 🎯 Focus: 7/10 😌 Calmness: 7/10 🌙 Sleep Quality: 6/10 🔥 Motivation: 7/10 ⭐ Average: 6.8/10 ✅ Activities from yesterday: 💧 Stayed Hydrated 🥗 Healthy Eating 🍺 No Alcohol ☕ No Late Caffeine 🥩 Hit Protein Goal 🥦 Ate Vegetables 🍳 Home Cooked Meal 📋 Planned Day 📅 No Meetings 🎓 Online Course 👥 Quality Time 🍽️ No Phone at Dinner 👂 Active Listening
