 Final day in June today so will be finishing off my brain games badge (I hope) so I can claim it for this month. I've also done the rebel health check badge, which is my first monthly badge, and I have a point to claim for a June bonus so I'm fairly pleased with this month's progress.  I've downloaded the July bonus points picture and will be making a start on the Big Kid activities over the weekend as well as making a start on the quarterly challenge. I've been trying to do the birthday challenge but I'll end up overlapping at this rate as I didn't start it until May, then bought into the subscription so will be taking part in all of the quarterly challenges from now on. Might need a rethink...

 Very excited about the release of the big kid summer badge requirements today!! Will definitely be having a lot of fun doing that!! I'm a bit sad that there are quite a few things I won't be able to do because of my back as a fair few of them are quite physical. However,  I'm also massively grateful that there are so many more things I will be able to do that I wouldn't have been able to do a few months ago. So I will do what I can and enjoy them immensely. Chris will be away for a few days in July so will have to see which ones I can do whilst he is away. Wonder who might like to come for a sleepover.....

 Well, going back to work for the first time since the operation hasn't half slowed down my badge work! I'm still plodding on through them but it's definitely less than I was doing before. I'm not even reading much and that is not like me at all. I don't think the hot weather is helping, but it's time I got myself a bit more sorted... I am working on the June monthly badge of health check. I need to phone the doctors and the dentist tomorrow to get some appointments booked in.  I've subscribed to the quarterly challenge so am looking forward to trying to stay on top of those. We are also looking at where to go on holidays and days out over the summer and I am going to tie in as many as possible to badges so that will be fun. Bletchley Park is a definite so I need to do a bit more research to see what else I can fit in. The craft badge started off well and I need to keep on top of that so I have it finished within three months. I do wish I hadn't started
