I think I’ve forgotten how not to write about Christmas.
Today I really do have that back to school feeling. I like my job, so that’s a start at least, but all of sudden I have to remember how to write about interesting things that aren’t Christmas, and not many interesting things are planned for January as I spent all my money on Christmas things.
The one interesting thing I am doing in January is taking part in Janathon in an attempt to kick start myself into a new year where I’ll get my fitness back thanks to the magical asthma drugs I have been prescribed. Basically the upshot is that I have to go out and do some exercise, and blog about it, every day in January. At the moment I’m running a mile and a half a day and regaling you with tales of how I wasn’t attacked by dogs, pigeons or indeed anything on my run. You can follow my progress through the month over on Lipstick, Lettuce & Lycra. The posts do transfer to this site in the Health & Fitness category, but I have excluded them from the feed in order not to bore anyone to tears!
Still, on the plus side I have one more day at least before I have to think of exciting things to write, because today is the day I get to tell you all who won all the Christmas Giveaways!
Emails have already been sent to all the winners, and many of you have replied, but if you spot your name below, go check your emails because if I don’t hear from you by Wednesday I’ll have to draw another winner!
