Happy Valentines Day. I think I have a secret admirer …

Big kisses on Happy Valentines Day ❤️❤️❤️❤️ xxxx

I have been feeling a bit low because Ben at the New Era Vets gave me scale and polish yesterday. I also had to have a tooth out 🙁.

I have been very brave through. I was still feeling groggy and out of sorts this morning but I really cheered up after my mum gave me chicken mixed up with a bit of smoked salmon. Mmmm 😁.

Then the postman delivered two Valentine cards for me. I am pretty sure one is from my mate Coco ❤️. He lives just down the road and is always asking me out.

I have no idea who the other one is from. Does anyone recognise this hunky chap? No snow in Jersey. So I wonder where he is? ❤️. Who is the mystery Shorkie?

SURREAL TIMES: Tired Tuesday, the Day After Blue Monday

As we live in surreal times, I decided to call today Tired Tuesday. It is the day after Blue Monday, the official name for the third Monday of each New Year, which apparently, has been noted as the most depressing day of any year – not just one plagued by a pandemic. Surprisingly, I felt quite upbeat, as for the first time in 2021, I felt like I had a wasp up my arse, for the whole day, until I ran out of steam…

DEAR DIARY – POSITIVE THOUGHTS AND AFFIRMATIONS FOR 2021

Dear Diary, as 2020 was so goddam bleak, I intend to record only positive thoughts and affirmations this year.

Well, hello, 2021! I took down the tree and the Christmas decorations today because now that you’re here, there no point in hanging around, I want to get on with it. You’ve been a long time coming. It’s been the longest 365 days of my life and, as I’m sure you’ve heard, your predecessor was a nightmare.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Things can only get better in 2021!

Around 6.p.m. I kicked off my jog pants, showered, washed my hair and dolled myself up. Then, proudly wearing an outfit I had been given for Christmas, I took a stroll along the landing from the bedroom, looking longingly at the photos and prints, framed and hanging on the walls. The hibiscus. A watercolour from Barbados, prints from St. Lucia and a photo of us all embossed on to canvas splashing around in the sea in The Maldives. Treasured memories.
