a Thought
for Thursday

A Scrubbed Launch

Launch wasn't a go go
it just wasn't meant to be, oh no
Sitting there ready
Bob and Doug seemed so steady 

With a few minutes to remain
the bad weather it came
It stopped them proceeding
and where it was leading

It must have been difficult to sit there and wait
I bet they dreaded the pesky weather update
On the weather you can never rely
it can be raining one minute then completely dry

So Saturday they will try again 
Astronauts are truly brave men
The International Space Station is where they hope to be
will it be 'lift off' well we will wait and see

It's Mental Health Awareness Week

Remember it's ok at the moment if you are feeling blue
nobody really knows what to do
My advice is to take it very steady
and do things when you feel you are ready

Coming out of lockdown isn't a race
give it a little time and a little grace
You won't get a medal for being the best
and this isn't an exam or a big fat test

We humans are not the same
we all play a very different game
We will come out of this that's for sure
and be allowed to do alot more

You're mental health needs to come first
if you ignore it you'll just feel the worst
How can you move forward if you are not feeling good
and aim to do the things you normally would

It's only encouragement and guidelines from the Gov that we are gettin'
so don't fear or go a frettin'
Do what's right for you at your own pace
and boom! You'll be in a better place

No banana bread here

I haven't made banana bread in this lockdown
people will look at me and frown
You didn't make any banana bread?
What did you make instead?

I made the classic brownie that's what everyone here eats
my stomach is expanding with all of these sweets
Next came a Victoria Sandwich with loads of jam inside
now my trousers are clown size wide

Flour in the shops you couldn't see
It was a complete mystery to me
though everyone is baking it has to be said
They're all making bloomin' banana bread

Lockdown

I wrote this last week after a bit of a wobbly in lockdown. My first one really so that's not too bad. I feel better now but I suppose we will all have a wobbly at some point and it's ok not be ok..........



Today I felt a bit low
not knowing where life will go
I know it will be ok
we just have to take it day by day

I think it's the not doing what we normally do
all our routines, well they have gone down the loo
We are becoming learners, crafters and bakers
spending more time with the kids and identifying as homemakers

But one thing is for sure and we know to be true
some day this will all be over
and I won't have to stand 2 metres apart in a queue
