No Make up and grey hair!

People tell me to look after myself when I am too busy looking after others. The only time this year (2020) I have worn make up is to Jaxon and Stephs wedding in January(didn’t do a very good job) and it’s now July.

I think maybe my friends are saying it’s about time to put some lipstick on and brighten the day (Or face) and I might stop getting asked for my gold card (the senior citizens over 65 discount card!)

A beautiful day out in January – some chap joined us on the bench!

You know what, it doesn’t matter what you wear, what you look like, how much money you have in the bank when it’s time to say goodbye.

Another page in our lives closed yesterday, with Sandy taking another piece of our hearts with her (and her friends and Aussie family too).

Covid 19 has been bittersweet! It meant I was here (no travelling) for Al and Sandy through this and out the other side (whatever that journey is). It also meant Sandys beloved brothers, their family’s and friends could not be here to hug her through this. A casualty of Covid 19 that many have had the pain of not being where they really want to at critical times.

This most recent journey has been cruel and fast, and leaves us all gasping for breath. Just when you think you are treading water, a tidal wave swoops in and knocks you for six!

So Today is Sunday 19th July 2020….and we are in for a whirlwind week with a celebration for our Beloved Sandy on a Thursday! She wanted a party and she will have one….46 years is a long time for a McInnes to hang out with the Bonnici clan!

And maybe a little makeup will be in order for the second time this year….grey hair, well that’s kinda blonde now!

We keep searching for that ray of sunshine….even in Winter it can break through the clouds.
