Here I am again and it is almost 10th January 2010 already - what an interesting, white and slippery week this has been!

Was thinking this week as I carefully chose my steps in the snow and then the icy pavements and roads that we should be just as careful with our lives to make sure we don't slip and fall but often we take our eyes off the road and bang - just like my physical fall there we go!!

Anyway I have done fairly well this week given that walking has been so difficult - of course there was not the option of taking the car in to work and back but I could have got on a train. I walked both ways each day and that felt good......

From Monday I need to try to get back into a proper routine - the roads are still very icy but the sun has been out today so if I choose my path carefully I will be able to have evening walks as well as the day trips.

I normally don't like January very much - except my birthday which I like to have as a holiday since Robert is at home anyway and of course pay day but so far January looks okay. It is amazing how - although I don't like driving in it the snow really brightens everywhere up - it is white and glowing when we look out over the roofs and gardens and that feels good.

We are about to arrange payment for our April holiday to Spring Harvest - a Christian festival - the three of us are going and how we are looking forward to it - it is so encouraging and uplifting to share Christian fellowship and relaxation with other Christians.

Then we have our summer holiday to book up and this year for Spain we plan to go via Madrid because London City Airport have flights that will take us there - and the airport is 5 minutes from home! This will allow us to see another part of Spain - the Cities are always interesting to see and explore. So I have lots to look forward to this year - and I also want to focus more on what I am eating as opposed to the walking I am doing - I need to speed up some weight loss since I keep eating chocolate and sweets and that damages my shape - bye for now!
