    White rabbits everyone.....February is upon us. and of course that brings with it a new mortgage payment made and my signature duly updated. It is lovely to just have to update the one payment each month, and it is no longer a scary figure when I look at it. I didn't realise I would feel so different about it all! Bizarre, really, because surely it would be obvious that a lower figure would be less scary?

    Anyway, tonight is football, so a long but hopefully good day for me.

    Have a good day/month xx

    white rabbits to you as well hynpno.

    Antibes sounds nice. I first thought you had said antigua, and was even more jealous!!!

    Nice one about the running. i am jump starting my swimming this next two weeks, to try and get my older DS through his 200m swim for surf life saving. He managed to get half way last time, so big improvement there.

    good luck with the week

    Well, I simply have two choices - be miserable about the weather, the fact that I hate February (cold, grey, and containing the anniversary of losing my Dad), or look at the positives that I have in my life, of which there are many, appreciate them, and enjoy them.
