‘Tis the season of “Testing the Integrity of the Elasticity of the Waistband of your Trousers”… also know as Christmas!
Time for some new stretchy pants I think
(Behind the joviality there’s the beginning of a serious tummy ache 🤣)
Merry Christmas Everyone!!

Autumn time = Sleepy time
Get busy doodling or get busy sleeping!!

An amazing sky this morning, made waking up very nearly tolerable 🤣
I know morning skies like this are a bit of a red flag for shepherds but something this beautiful deserves to be appreciated.

A week late for the big DCPP spring bake sale… no harm though as the GBBO is definitely not in my cards, might need some/lots more practice before anyone is allowed try any of my cakes 🤢

Why is pushing the envelope seen as a good thing? Encourage? Yes. Help? Yes. Even gently nudge? Yes. But pushing is never really the answer, unless it’s someone on a swing.
Let’s try and appreciate our wonderful envelopes a little more.

So my new Goal is to get walking!! The plan is at least 5 purposeful walks a week. It should be noted that with my tiny legs (and lack of fitness) I’m not currently getting much distance or speed BUT I am walking and so far I’ve walked 9 days in a row 💥

Progress update… I have levelled up!! Two weeks with no carbonated cola flavoured drinks. Swapping in sparkling water with cordial, so still getting that lovely bubble hit 🫧
So I now move from Level 0 to Level 1
Time for for my next goal…

So I didn’t make it off the floor this week BUT I did manage to roll on to my front so I’m counting that as a win. Trying to roll over gave me plenty of time to review my potential goals… and my first proper goal is to stop drinking Pepsi Max again!!!

Truth be told I give this project about a 0.07% chance of ever going beyond today’s post but you never know…

[Brendan Lonergan @bob_narrow]

Can doodling help me get my proverbials together and make some positive changes for 2025? Only one way to find out… my plan is to try and document through silly drawings the ups & (probable many) downs of my journey to a (hopefully) better me this year.

Where do thoughts and ideas come from? I assume they are born of some wonderful old magic ✨

And congratulations to all the amazing artists out there who have been creating the most incredible work, it’s funny how one simple prompt can encourage so many different ideas.
Here’s to next year!! 👻🎃

Today’s “landmark” is the lovely surprise of having successfully got to the end of Inktober, and though my adventures didn’t really get me anywhere, a destination was never really the point…

[Brendan Lonergan @bob_narrow]

the point was to have some fun which I definitely did. I hope you did too, thank you for following along, your likes continue to give me such a buzz.
