Its Comic Relief Day today, a great institution. There'll be plenty of silliness in places of work and education today. My daughter and son have gone to school wearing red clothes because paying a pound to charity means they can dress in non-school uniform. My daughter is also wearing her red wig - she looks a bit like Annie or Shirley Temple or Ronald MacDonald. I hope they raise a record amount of money because everyone needs cheering up in these hard times.
What else has been on my radar recently:
- Jade Goody - she has cervical cancer and it has spread, which effectively means that she is not going to recover. She became a celebrity after appearing on Big Brother 3 in 2002 and has since remained in the public eye due to some rocky professional and personal experiences. I haven't yet formed a solid opinion about Jade, I have heard criticism of her fund raising for her children however I'm not sure I wouldn't do exactly the same if I had to
- Spring-like weather - despite sometimes feeling very cold, the weather recently has definitely been changing more to mild and it makes me happy to think of Spring coming
- Colds - along with the weather change it is bringing the family down with coughs and colds as usual
- Swimming - I actually managed to swim 3 widths in the pool on Tuesday so I think I'm making good progress, I'm actually sad when the time comes to end the session, there are some nice people also attending the class so its nice in a social way too
That's about it for now. Hope today is a good day for everyone, despite the date! Have a great weekend!

The weather has been nice here, too, it was almost 70F the other day! Usually around this time we have cold rain (which we're actually having as I type this), but it has been really nice. After the first day of Spring, it has no excuse to snow.
So far I haven't caught the colds other people have been getting around the office, and I hope to keep it that way.
Hey Tara! I hope you have managed to avoid catching those colds going around!
