At the end of 2019, I quipped in Blog 125 (https://aintwegotitmade.wordpress.com/2019/12/14/blog-125-14-12-19-over-to-you-god/), that the new year might bring us some 20/20 vision… little did I know what was ahead..…and already under way in Wuhan when I wrote that! I am hoping that current circumstances will make 2020 a year of awakening; of clarity, bravery and great vision…and that maybe the vision of this young poet might be the future….(play this…or miss something wonderful…choice is yours).
Who am I?.......well, I'm getting to that age where I have to think about that before I answer...
My name is J, I'm married, and my husband and I live in the great city of London. I started this blog as an update to family and friends when I completely ruptured my Achilles tendon a few years ago (see The first post). I am so fortunate in every possible way...and in all honesty, I'm just using this blog to remind myself...
Why is it called Ain't we got it made?: this is a line from one of my favourite songs (Sing Baby Sing - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtTgtkDLNys). Have I got it made? Well - I've got a roof over my head, running water right into my house, a fully-stocked supermarket round the corner, free and readily available healthcare; and I live with my lovely husband in a great city, in a beautiful country, where I feel safe and secure.... I rest my case.
Fact or opinion: I am not an expert on anything… but I can confirm that everything in this blog is either fact or opinion.
I hope to post regularly, mostly about things I find uplifting, positive, amusing, optimistic, important..or perhaps just about regular daily life...but I won't bother you too much. Thanks for stopping by...
