More than a month into my 3 month Aussie adventure

More than a month into my 3 month Aussie adventure and having a ball in Melbourne!
Finishing work on my next novel - which will be out in November, and more news on that soon! - reading up a storm, walking about 20 kms a day, having my fair share of snogs along the way too 😂
I don’t think I’ve ever been happier. I miss Dublin and my family but my sisters arrive tomorrow for a 9 day visit.
Still Brissy and Adelaide to come! #irishwriters #melbourne #booktour #australia

I know I Instagram a lot about weight, but while everyone’s weight is their own issue, I feel so good that I spent so much of 2022 changing how I live, how I eat, how I exercise. I’ve gone from 90 kgs to 70 kgs and I feel so good about myself. Positive in mind. Productive in my work. Happy in my relationships. These 2 pix are taken 13 months apart. I wake up every day now thinking, when will I do my exercise, what will I eat and when, and how do I make every moment be positive and healthy.
I don’t think I’ve ever felt better about myself in my entire life and that’s because I decided to take control of my life at 50.
