#JusJoJan - 30/1/25 - Hesitation

Your prompt for JusJoJan January 30th, 2025 is “hesitation.” Use it any way you’d like. Enjoy!

You can find out all there is to know about the challenge at our host Linda's blog here. 

Woo hoo this is my prompt suggestion today.  And it's my second one of the challenge.

I was hesitant about whether I'd commit to the challenge this year as my blogging has been quite erratic but doing a challenge is always a good way to get back on track.

And I've managed so far and only 1 day to go!  There were a couple of posts that technically didn't quite make the midnight deadline but we won't worry about that. I will have done at least 31 posts by tomorrow - good enough for me.

I'm often hesitant about a lot of things and I'm guilty of over-thinking things way too much.  Living with anxiety isn't easy.  But whereas at one point I wouldn't even consider some activities now I try to take the approach of "How can I do that?"  

There are still some things I'd never do particularly more adventurous things like bungee jumping, sky diving etc - though I think most sane people would avoid those.

However there was one suggestion that I didn't hesitate very much over - our daughter and her wife invited us to join them and their young son (8 months old) on a trip to Australia back in 2017.  I just thought why not and said yes.  My Husband was like "Quick, book the flights before she changes her mind!"  We went and we had a great time.

Right my timer is just about to go off - I'm due at the food bank this morning but I wanted to get this posted so it was there for challenge participants to see.  I didn't hesitate when it came to doing this post.

Thanks to Linda for keeping this challenge going again this year.  It's a lot of work and time consuming.
