Nearly 21

It occurred to me that this blog must be approaching its 20th birthday so I checked: it was last year.

Nearly twenty-one years of blogging, through lots of ups and downs, and reasonably consistently, only really taking breaks when on holiday. For someone who was told by her careers/maths teacher that she had no persistence, that's pretty good.

Hearing the news that a well-known actor had died aged 72 made me consider my own mortality. I am much too young to die. And I'm not a famous author yet. So death can wait for a bit.

GrandSon3 has got into his first choice football academy. Actually all four academies wanted him but Briton Ferry is the best in the region so all his hard work and dedication has paid off. And he does work hard, setting himself targets, and routines to practise every day, as well as running his socks off on the pitch. So we're all very happy for him.

Lovely walk with Daughter and Louie this morning.
