Hello family and friends welcome back to my blog. It's been a while since I last posted on my blog. I can't believe it's already February and Valentine's Day is just around the corner. In January, I started a new job, so my challenges has been put on hold for a while as I adjust to the new job. So far I love it, keeps me on my toes, challenging at times, but I know for sure it will be rewarding in the end.
So...I am currently looking into my 40 challenges and will be slightly changing the list a bit. But one thing will never change, I will continue to help one charity each month as part of my challenge.
For the month of January, I helped and donated to WaterAid by drinking only just water!
This month of February, I'm helping the charity Cancer Research UK. Last Saturday, 4th of February was World Cancer Day, and I volunteered for 4 hours collecting money and I hope to continue volunteering for other causes. I also signed up in taking on Sugar Free February as part of my challenge. So please sponsor me and donate at
