I don't really spend much time over on DreamWidth, but got a link to the comm threeforthememories where you decide on 3 photos to show a year ... so this is my post :-

#####

I love this idea of showing a year in 3 pictures ... so, here goes. It was very hard to decided as I take hundreds of photos, but these ate the 3 I have decded on


#1
Gulp ... I am now 60!
This photograph was taken a couple of days before my birthday and I am with my 2 "baby" brothers. The whole immediate family were there to celebrate with me, so a special weekend.

I went to Keswick Christian Convention. It is the place where Mum & Dad had their first holday, and I had always said I would go. I was there on the first day we were allowed to sing hymns again ... and the hymn was a family favourite (Great is Thy Faithfullness) ... and there were tears on my cheeks when we had finished. However after 18months of silence in Church there were many tears throughout the gathering.

Wow, the ed of 2021 has come along rapidly, hasn't it?

I am enjoying my week off work - seeing the family was lovely, I have even done a bit of housework, and just about to make some more mince pies (well we are still in the 12 days of Christmas) and I have even had a 2 mile walk over the last couple of days.  This morning I bumped into someone who works at the gym I used to go to, so it was nice to see her and her fiance and their 2 kids.

Now, as I sadi, baking to do ... and then a lazy evening planned, although I shall sit upp to watch the midnight change ... may even get to speak to both Brenda and Tim & Claire, depending how much they are partying (yes the rest of the family are seeing the New Year in together)

So, let me close 2021 with love and best wishes for 2022 and to thank you for being good friends, and posting fascinating items, photos, etc .... Here's to 2022 ...


31. What are you looking forward to in the next year?
I have a few trips planned, one of which has been delayed twice, and that is to see my WWI namesake tank ... so, yes, random, but something to look forward to.


Happy 2022 everyone

Happy New Year - here's hoping and praying that over the coming months we will see see a renewel of safety & freedom. All my holiday plans for 2020 were transferred, so hopefully by the time of the first trip, in May, things will be beginning to get back to normal.

Well, I did see the New Year in last night, although I did "wobble" when I realised that it was the first time I would have no one to wish a Happy New Year to. Oh well, as part of my positive focus I am going to start the year by doing the Snowflake Challenge again -

Challenge #1

In your own space, introduce yourself! Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.


In some ways my intro is the same as the entry this time last year .... However as those of you who know me realise last year was a tough one for me, not just with Covid, but being ill defore that and my Chronic Fatigue flaring up. Add to that my having to say Goodbye to my little Westie, Jiffy, it was hard.

So I am wanting to re-focus my life ... and this is one of the ways I am going to do it.



So Happy New Year to you all - here's hoping we all get back to normality soon (if I was ever normal to begin with!!)

Group *hugs*
