Having breakfast on the balcony for the first time since March last year without freezing my butt off, I have survived the festive season and the exceptionally warm Winter & Spring that was forecast but happened to be the opposite, i.e. cold and windy. I haven’t made any resolutions. If I want to make changes to the way I live, I ‘just do it’ and forget about resolutions, no matter what time of year, saving much stress and disappointment. Weary of all the daily crime, disaster, scandals & doomsday prophesies I am trying to focus on the good & positive. Here we go: emission reduction targets have been postponed to 2050 , and logically, so would have the long predicted environmental apocalypse, keeping both, the ‘Climate Change’ activists and deniers occupied and trading for another three decades. Haven’t heard from Kim Jong-un for a while, perhaps he has taken a break from missile testing to celebrate Christmas, as his contribution to ‘World Peace’.
The ‘Trump Wall’ hasn’t been built yet, maybe ‘another good omen’. My prospects for 2019 are good, considering that almost every appliance and power tool in my household has broken down & been replaced in the previous few years, hence they are now all under warranty, should this be anything to go by for ‘peace of mind’, especially since I’m pretty much broke. Not to worry, the government has forecast a massive economic boom. What a comforting prophesy I mean “who wouldn’t trust a politician”?
My books still haven’t found a new distributer after the last one went bankrupt 5 months ago, however, authors are well used to waiting and being ignored by the publishing industry that’s not exactly known for its efficiency or service.
Fortunately what I write is eternal, so my books don’t expire.
Let make take this opportunity to wish you all the best for 2019.
“May your wishes come true”.
