Writing Resolutions
Well back in the UK going through a draw in my filing cabinet called ‘Writing’. I have to do something about it – as in finish each of these projects.

Spanish Resolution
I spent a few hours today researching homes in Spain. Choice is between a modern place near to the hordes of Brits who have moved to Spain, or a farmhouse in the middle of nowhere.

New Year – Resolution!
I set myself a task for this week. Speed march from home, down to River Orwell, back up through Orwell Country Park then home – almost 4 miles.

Free Money – for Peace of Mind, Books Galore, Tasha and I.
Being creative on low energy is either deep joy or hellish torture. Working twelve hours a day then writing a blog – I am a star.
