Today is day 67, and here is where I am at: 67 Costumes (plus some extras that will appear again through out the year) = DONE! £4,658 Raised - INCREDIBLE! Feelings: Going into month three, the challenge is starting to REALLY kick in. Every day is a bit more of a battle. I know it sounds fun and enjoyable to wear fancy dress every day, but mentally, looking like a dork & feeling COMPLETELY ridiculous, starts playing on your mind. It shouldnt. It REALLY shouldnt. But it does. #firstworldproblems I feel like im starting to go slightly mad! Ive lost the plot! Even in my dreams I wear fancy dress now. I cant remember what natural fibers feel like. The constant stares can be disheartening. The rude comments muttered or even shouted at me when walking down the street are character breaking. Even something as silly as taking a Selfie every day has me questioning myself....am I really just a self obsessed, Narcissistic person? Is every one going to hate me by the end of the year for jamming up their Facebook feeds? What if someone makes fun of one of my instagram pictures behind my back? What if I dont raise anymore money & everyone is disappointed in me? All these thoughts fly through my head every day! Its stupid - I know this! I am a fairly logical person. I know I am being ridiculous. But sometimes, SOMETIMES - there are moments when every thing just gets to you! But then something awesome will happen! One of you will share the link. Someone will make a donation. A stranger will like my photo on instagram. Ill get a new follower on Facebook...and suddenly, it will all seem worth while again! Yes, this is a mushy, over emotional, from the heart not the brain Facebook update, but I am taking on the challenge of my lifetime, so please excuse me if I loose it now and again. You guys are simply AWESOME! Thank you for your constant support and kind words! I always knew there were going to be days where it got tough, and so far you lot have always been there to pull me back up. You all ROCK! Please....also remember, that this is all for a good reason! I have heard so many stories already over the first 67 days, both happy and sad relating to breast cancer. Please... Check your Boobs! Tell every one you know to do the same. Be breast aware. Know what normal feels like, And visit coppafeel.org to find out more about the amazing charity I am doing this all for! E xx
