Hi everyone,  

So the last 2 years has been super tough on every single person I know and all for lots of different reasons. I hope I have managed to support a lot of my friends, my family and most of all my younger members of staff.  The Lockdowns taught me a lot about having my own time, what I can do on days off that before I would have anxiety about because there was no routine. Lockdown 2020 opened my eyes to the beautiful area we live in 🌊 🌲 and the connections and friends we all have. The sun was shining I was being paid to chill out for the first time in my 18 years of slogging my guts out. ☀️ 🍹 2021 lockdown was a bit different ☔️ 😞 and then we re-opened for good and blimey those jabs affected people moods and rudeness and some of the newly lockdown 18’s yr olds blimey were they all stressful sooooo obviously wine 🍷 got me through!! 

Alcohol, parties, socialising, wine time, wine Wednesday ….. wine any day as long as it helps me forget Being called a snowflake by an ugly rude little shithead of a male thing!! (And that’s tame compared to the other names we’ve all been called trust me!!)
My lovely grandad pass away at 100 and it made me grieve for him and everyone that had lost a loved one and of course my friend wine helped again 🤷‍♀️
So 2022 I’m setting myself a challenge and trust me this has taken a lot of thought cos of the job I do AND because you all know how much I like my wine!!
BUT I need some focus - there are things I want to do at home, hobbies I want to take up and a mind I want to have that is healthy.
I want not to wake up everyday to the beating of anxiety in my chest …… having to get up And trawl my way through the day feeling agitated n irritated n not wanting to talk to anyone, worrying about everything and everyone relying on rescue remedy to calm me down and help me show the complete opposite and be cheerful, encouraging, nice, talkative and positive!
Ive decided to complete a 365 days of NO ALCOHOL challenge and I’m really REALLY ready for it !! 

My year of health but if I can raise money for the anxiety Uk whilist doing this challenge then even better! For most this would be easy - but you guys know how much I like my wine so please encourage me by donating. 

Love Tasha x
