Since Tuesday, I’ve started trying to do a new thing every day and I aim to keep it up for the next year.

I’ve been collecting ideas and they’re on a Trello board (but of course 🙃) 
More ideas will be added as they arrive. 


Here is the board. I’m open to suggestions - especially quite random ones ☺️

So far I’ve run 2 new sections of the SW Coast Path, got eyelash extensions, and made ice cream for the first time. Today is a writing challenge

Today’s new thing is:
How many jumpers can I wear at once? Find out.

Toddler: TWO!
He really pushes me to shoot for the stars

11 jumpers!

Things I learnt from trying to wear a lot of jumpers in one go:
1. Strategy is important - start with thinner layers and work up to those chonky knits
2. The main defeating factor is arm immobility after 9 layers
3. The second main defeating factor is heat
4. It’s surprisingly anxiety-inducing trying to remove jumper number 11.
If you get stuck, you’ll need outside help

@pretendcato this is perilous enough that I hope you brought safety scissors ❤️

@0x2ba22e11 I had to do a loud shout for help 😂

@pretendcato I trust that help was promptly rendered? :D

@0x2ba22e11 Hah, thankfully yes :) I was freed from my woolly prison
Though once you start panicking in a jumper, seconds feel very long
