Week 2 - 50 and a bit

So here we are again, with the 2nd instalment of my 52 part series.  

It's been a busy week in some ways, but I've managed to keep up with my daily blog, somehow.   And a fascinating experience it's been.  Recommended...

Anyway, without further ado (Anna's waiting to get on with The Godfather Part II, which we're paused about an hour into)...

Weekly Summary

Xmas...but still missing our boy Bluez...

Weekly Thanks and Praise

Carol, for being so supportive of my sister, my mum and myself...for having such an open and generous soul...and for seeing things that some of us don't.

Weekly Present

I'm going to cheat a little here and nominate a Xmas present...but it was for Anna, and she needs to be on this list.    And the present was a Sonos sound system, which allows her to play music wherever she is around the house and garden.   And with amazing synchronicity, it's currently playing She (the great version by Elvis Costello), which seems a fitting tribute to Anna.   Really glad you like it, babe...x

More next week!

Week 1 - Big 5-oh

So for my 50th birthday a week ago, I made a big long list of things I'm going to do in the year when I am 50.  

I would have said "in my 50th year" but of course this is my 51st...damn.

Some of my resolutions involve blogging some of the things I've done.  Some of these have a weekly basis, so I've combined 3 of them into this 5-oh-1-a-Week blog:

• Summarise the week in 7 words or less.
• Send an unsolicited mail to someone to thank or compliment them.
• Give someone a present.

In this blog I'm going to record each of these, every week.

So here we go.

Weekly Summary

50, BIG number...still in denial, me!

Weekly Thanks and Praise

Anna, for being 50 shades of awesome/lovely.

Weekly Present

George Carlin stand up sessions on a USB stick for Steve Such.  I think he will sympathise with George's position and appreciate his world view.

More next week!
