My Littlest Sister D

I'm going to write some more focussed blog postings as I'd like to talk about people who've inspired me to become more active.

Starting off with:My Littlest Sister D
D is 6 years younger than me & is Mum to 2 young children, my fabulous niece A and nephew J. She juggles some especially demanding childcare challenges with a new role working as a youth worker, supporting her husband S with the family business and giving over time to her friends and her faith. She has an amazingly "now" approach to life that I love. A few months ago, she discovered the Bad Mothers Club & started a brilliant blog charting her progress in getting into a beautiful dress for our Middle Sister's wedding - which she achieved with aplomb.D's blog made me realise that blogging could work for me in terms of tracking progress. That she was able to find the time and energy to fit exercise into her routine made me realise that my excuses were miniscule by comparison! D's always acted quickly on her ideas which seems to make them more likely to happen - something I've tried to learn from. I also love the way that she throws enthusiasm into everything - even bad days on her blog are written up with her distinctive sense of humour - much use of boooooo and rah.
