February

Sofar the month of February is shaping up nicely. Soon deadlines will be nothing but an unpleasant distant memory...until March at least. I am really looking forward to having a week off from college also. It means I can do the things I never get the chance to usually do. Like have a lie-in (if the builders next door do not rudely awaken me), get to spend time with family and friends and run those errands that seem to never get done...

I've forgotten how much Valentine's Day is advertised; getting to the point of being publicised and as a common a topic as what you wear as a Halloween costume or what you want for Christmas.

My week off has actually turned out into my busiest week; mainly due to buying a puppy. Have to say I never considered myself as 'the small dog' type but I have fell in love with my wee shihtzu...with a face like this who wouldn't?

Lord knows what I've let myself in for...
