Reasons to be Cheerful: Challenges, Wins and Guinea Pigs #R2BC

Hard to believe its the last day of November as its gone in a flash! The last time of Michelle hosting then its over to me for December. Here are my reasons to be cheerful this week:
1) Challenge Complete
When I injured my foot in October I thought that I would fail to earn my 1000 km medal as its either run or walk and not a mix! I had reached 706 km of running and it was tantalising close so frustrating... Luckily thanks to Pokemon Go I have walked over a million steps to 1001 km since May, so my medal is on its way:

2) Guinea Pigs

As the temperatures have started to plummet the guinea pigs can't stay in their outdoor hutch. I have sacrificed a corner of my kitchen to keep them cosy for the winter. I love seeing their little faces and hearing their week whenever I go into the kitchen:

3) Rediscovering Hidden Treasures


Again thanks to Pokemon Go I spent some time up at the Revolution Monument which is tucked away on Castle Howe. I had forgotten where this was until I was heading for a raid:

4) Winter Treats

The cold weather is a great excuse for hot chocolate with trimmings, yummy:

5) Winning Things

My son and I didn't win any awards at the Helm Hill presentation evening but we had a lot of fun and we did win these prizes in the raffle:
