One of my New Year’s resolutions is to get out a bit more. That is to get out of the studio and stretch my legs a bit. I’m sure it’s not good to sit hunched over a desk all day.

Now that I’ve been CRBeed, I feel okay going off for a walk in the woods on my own. If I wait for everyone to decide if they are coming and get themselves togged up, it’s not worth going in the first place. So I’ve decided that going for a walk is part of my job description.

To those of you who go to work, this may sound a bit self-indulgent, you do at least leave the house once a day. We who work at home start in the morning in our pyjamas and finish the day with our laptops in bed, feeling that we probably haven’t worked hard enough in the day.

The only way to get out for a bit is to make it part of the job. So I will take my camera and see if I can find interesting things along the way. That makes the walk proper work.

Of course that doesn’t stop people treating you suspiciously as a lone walker in a very suspicious hat without a dog. But hey! I’m working – so now I don’t care what they think. Isn’t positive thinking an amazing thing?

Anyway, It was cold today and I found these wonderful frozen puddles for your joy and delectation.
