There's an app for everything these days
to help you do stuff in all sorts of different ways
From a countdown to a special event 
to a pregnancy you may want to prevent

There's a new one that tells you how much water you've had
as seen on Dragons Den, can't be all that bad
But isn't it easy just to keep a mental note
without popping a device in ya drink and watching it float

You can switch lights on and off, even your heating too
I'm wondering if there's one to tell you to go to the loo
After all you're programmed to drink like mad
to record your urine flow surely would be one app to be had

Our smart phones will become smarter than us
mine already is just with a calculator for less fuss
The Kindle seems to be replacing the book
you can even point your phone at the sky, give the stars a little look

It's just one way times are taking a change
some apps make life a lot easier, a way to engage
Just remember to look up though once in a blue moon
otherwise the world will pass you by way to soon.

It's been a week of spreading love
whether here on earth or to those up above
It's not something exclusive to all you lovers
it's for the whole world, even the single people it covers

I'm talking of Valentines Day of course
for some it may fill with sadness and remorse 
You may not be keen or feel lonely inside
that's ok but don't feel you have to hide

You can of course love yourself
it's a good place to start if you feel you're on the shelf
Don't stay there too long as there is love to share
from family and friends who really really care

So open your heart and let love pour out
there's really nothing to be scared about
It's something we should be all proud of
that splendid little thing called love

Take care for now.

It was my birthday week this week
forty something but still feeling sleek
Age is just a number or so they say
bring on middle age, come what may

I still feel twenty years in age
but minus a perm, Escort XR3 and a full time wage
Life seems to be zooming by
my knees are feeling it I won't lie

I've celebrated with food and chocolates to add
received lots of cards and love for which I'm glad
Another year older I'm thankful for my life
even if at times it's had a spell of trouble and strife

Life would be boring if all went well
we need a kick up the backside through that temporary bad spell
The bad times make us realise we are in need of a change
light at the end of the tunnel for which we exchange

Later years can be denied by some
so I'm reflecting and hoping to get stuff done
Looking to a positive future and not dwelling on the past
gonna make the birthday's to come with memories to last

for now though....

take care

I'm gonna tell you about something I've lost
it's not valuable not even bothered about the cost
I just use it a lot and now it's not here
health and safety has been missed I do very much fear

I mean who loses a bread knife for goodness sake?
It's not even small so how could I make that mistake
I've looked everywhere I can think of I'm sure
I really should have put it somewhere secure

Always wiser after the event
it's bugging me though, that much I needed to vent
I keep looking in places it just couldn't be
the toilet? Since when do I cut bread while having a wee?

Oh like I always say it will turn up eventually
it's probably hiding in another drawer or an abandoned welly
​I've got another knife I can use
it's probably shaking in case it's the next one I lose

I'll go and buy a new one and then it'll turn up
like it's been there all the time saying 'hey there, what's up?'
Oh bread knife I thought I'd lost you forever
I'm going to chain you up somewhere, now that would be clever
