February has come and is almost gone.  I'm settling into my new home well.  It's such a blessing to feel like I have a place to call "home" as well as just an address.  My housemates Laura and Vanessa are sweet and it's good to have someone to chat with in the evenings.

I've joined a local fitness centre, with a dual purpose of meeting people in the community and getting back into a reasonably fit state!  The gym is only about a ten minute walk from my house.  Nearby is a weakness: a takeaway shop that has veggie samosas, 5 for £3!

This weekend I'm in Birmingham for a conference, about 2.5 hours drive north of London.  Thus far, I'm not impressed but we shall see what the weekend holds!
