WOW - WHERE ON EARTH DID JANUARY GO?

One minute it was Christmas and the next it's the last day of January - isn't it scary how fast time can fly when you're busy! And I'm certainly busy at the moment with most of my time being sucked up with Uni work, however I'm still finding a little time to work through my list and all this extra work is bringing me a little closer to completing number 17 (learn about all the muscles in the body). To help me with this, I've brought a model skeleton that Ive called Jon Bone Jovi - groan!!

On Thursday I made a start on number 14 (donate blood 5 times) by giving blood! It's not the first time that I've done it - I'm a regular now - but it still gives me a great feeling every time I do it. I would strongly recommend that anyone who can give blood should!

The wildlife in my garden has also been benefiting from my list, as I made a start on number 95 (feed the birds in my garden 101 times). However, when I say wildlife what I really mean is starlings. But I guess that they're still wild and deserve a free meal when it's cold!

But, with February beginning tomorrow, I've decided to make a start with one of the harder tasks on my list; number 40 (eat no take-away food for 101 days). I've worked it out that this task should be completed by Tuesday 12th May. I'm hoping that this task will give me some long lasting health benefits and get me into some better eating habits.

So wish me luck on this one folks and, before I forget, I need to say thanks to a friend of mine who looked up the Baltic art gallery and found out that it is an old flour mill!

Look after yourselves :-)
