    Forget any setbacks , every day is a fresh start. If you can learn from your setbacks then that's a great thing.

    Well done on the swimming , just aim for a certain amount of lengths , so now you are at 15 next make it 18 and do on, until you get to a number you are happy with.

    As for Spain , I think you need to think about it carefully. Could someone else go with you as well . Then on the other hand if you don't try something you will never know . Maybe just go for a shorter period than a month.

    Bedtime for me now .

  • Hi Pauline, just checking in. I'm sorry you have been so down. You are absolutely not a disappointment, I for one find your advice extremely helpful and you always have something wonderful to say to everyone. We are allowed to feel down sometimes, as long as we get up again. Please take care of yourself and try and get out when you feel up to it.
    Change the way you see things and the things you see will change
