 Day 7 Becoming My Own Batman

6 January 2021


I have just been watching the news and I am absolutely disgusted at the scenes coming from the US Capitol Building. If you ever needed a picture to describe white privilege then that’s it. Police standing around, protesters breaking windows and taking pictures on the senate floor. If I was an American I would be totally ashamed.


In the summer we attended a BLM march in London. I know they weren’t as big as the one’s in the US, but the number of police and tear gas being shot into the crowds really brings to light exactly how big the gap is between the races. I am angry and I just hope Trump and his enablers are prosecuted for inciting violence and sedition.


Anyway, today was a good day. I went to work, went for my walk (with the whole family). I really have a pretty boring life. I ate lots today. 


Today’s victories

  1. I went for a walk 2.8Km in 37 mins (a bit slow because of the talking)

  2. I had a lovely conversation with my daughter during the walk

  3. I laughed a lot at TBBT (Love it!!)

Becoming My Own Batman Day 5

  Day 5 Becoming My Own Batman 4 January 2021 Back to work today, it would be lovely if I had a huge inheritance like Bruce Wayne, I often imagine what it would be like to be rich don’t you? I would love to have someone cook for me, clean for me (although honestly since Rob has been home since March due to Covid, I almost do), I would like someone to train me and drive me around. I often joke that if Rob and I didn’t have to work, we’d be members of Champney’s Country Club and we’d eat breakfast and play a round of golf before enjoying a massage and then fetching the kids from school. Oh it’s a lovely dream and Rob has taken me once to a golf driving range and I can’t say it went too well. I also imagine getting a degree but I applied a few years ago and my A level equivalents were not good enough. I have looked to do some distance learning but it’s really expensive. Went to get the results of my MRI today and except for a disc that is slightly misaligned, my spine is in good condition

Day 1 Becoming my own Batman ( 2nd Time Round)

  11 January 2021 Day 1 of Becoming My Own Batman Yes, I fell off the wagon BIG TIME, I wasn’t going to do it anymore, yes I was just gonna quit! Then I realised that I am allowed to not be perfect yet. I have had a few days off work and I am feeling just a little relieved that I have not had to go in. I don’t think people realise just how stressful it is working in essential retail has been.  For a whole year we have been exposed to people who feel that coming into the store at 7am for the newspaper is essential. During the first lockdown we didn’t have any builders or workers coming into the store either, now it’s just like a normal day. Pop in three or four at a time to get a sandwich and a drink. These people should be at home!! Mothers and fathers come in with tiny babies. If you ask me honestly that’s plain and simple child endangerment. Supermarkets are becoming the new superspreaders and yet I can’t say anything to anyone who chooses not to wear a mask or wears a mask under the
