a Thought
for Thursday

Houses Houses Everywhere!

They are building houses everywhere
no more countryside looking completely bare
Construction vehicles on small lanes
the view of small diggers to big tall cranes

The landscape is changing in a big way
'I remember when that was all fields' you'll hear someone say
They don't build any more schools and doctors surgeries though
leading to a huge impact on queues and the general flow

We will just have a concrete jungle busy with folk
cars will be plenty with their fumes to make us choke
The poor wildlife, where will they go?
Countryfile may end as there will be nothing to show

Too many people on this big old planet 
needing more homes or should we just ban it?
Fight to keep our green fields and fresh air
Are we bothered? Do we really care?

I do, I don't want to lose the belt of green
some of our scenery is the best ever seen
Let's stop now and rest for a while
leave a little greenery, a square foot, a yard or even a mile

Give me a happy Monday

Well blue Monday came and went 
the big day of discontent
The day when we are meant to feel down
stay inside, not getting out of that dressing gown

It's supposed to be the lull after the festive fun
back to the grindstone, so dull we're missing the sun
Our pockets are empty along time till we see our pay
oh darn it, pass the plastic let's book a cheap holiday

That will make us happy, thinking of the sun
suncream, a beach, hair tied up in a bun
We all need something to look forward to
and something positive just to see us through

This time will pass and we'll feel good again soon
go eat some chocolate or listen to your favourite tune
Short term, we hope, is this period of the blues
Yes Monday has gone, it's yesterday's news

So onwards and upwards, put a smile on that face
throw away those problems and face the future with grace
For the world needs a positive nation
then we can break free, conqueror all and deal with any situation

I'm just not an 8 hour girl

I feel for those who struggle to sleep
staying awake trying to count those sheep
Some go through for eight hours no trouble
all tucked up, so cosy and comfortable

It makes you so frustrated though doesn't it?
especially if you have a fellow human in your pit
Snoring away, a head full of dreams
without a care in the world it very much seems

You feel like kicking and saying 'what the hell'
your snoring is as loud as Big Ben's bell
For me though I'm all alone
the only think that wakes me is my mobile phone

I've usually just nodded off when 'ting' goes the alarm 
or be screaming out loud because I've slept on my arm
Five hours is probably the most I sleep
but there's no point in stressing' or allowing a weep

Its makes my day longer but I kinda like that
I have a lot to do, no bum on to be sat
So up and 'at em' seek breakfast, get fed
there's plenty of time for sleep, I'll sleep when I'm dead


​​😴😴😴

The weight is on..

10/1/2019

Crikey the shock as I got on the scales
I seem to have absorbed everything Christmas entails
The food has engulfed my body as a whole
I now have a new resolution surely an achievable goal

I thought they would blow up to be absolutely fair
I got on so slowly, carefully, taking so much care
We all know if you jump on too fast
the numbers go higher our faces aghast 

I've tried standing on one leg and even having a poo
but the numbers they rise, my weight stuck on like glue
So I have got to eat less and exercise more
just at this moment though that seems a bit of a chore

I have to say goodbye to all the sugary treats
lattes and cakes with my friends on our meets
My coffee now is black and sugar free
I'm drinking so much water I'm always needing a wee

Ah it will be worth it when I'm a stone or two down
and not looking like a big bloated clown
My pants will be tight no more my friend
and the numbers on those scales will finally descend

🥗☕️🥗

It's go go go for 2019

A new year has begun
yes, Christmas is over, another one done
The tree and decorations have been packed away
I've taken down the Christmas cards which were once on display

The chocolate has been eaten the Pringles have all been popped
I fear for my scales as I get on a great weight will have been dropped
Back on the diet Slimming World will be pleased
as I am in need of some pressure from my hips to be released

For me the house does not seem empty or appear at all bare
I didn't really get into Christmas or give it a care
I do though like the thought of this band new year 
maybe it will bring a new lover or a dazzling career

The career I'm all up for but not fussed about love 
I'm looking out for oneself, giving romance a shove
I'll be busy loving family and friends in 2019
paying attention to new horizons, my fitness and getting lean

I'm not making resolutions, I'm not into all that
a few weeks in and I'll still be a little fat
But I'm happy within and that's all that there is
So be happy too and make your new year complete bliss

🥂🍾🥂
