JANUARY THE 1ST DIARY OF THOUGHTS BY FIONA CUMMINGS


Good evening Bloggets. First day in January of 2019. All of our Christmas lights and decs are put away from outside, our garden I am sure looks bare now. all we need to find is some pegs from our lawn. Tomorrow is the big put away for inside decorations. Oh, my, that’s an all-day job. Today I cooked and prepared other food for our New Years day party. Shamrock helped out with eating the food thank goodness. Hubs plate was like a bin lid. I could hardly pick it up to hand him it. As for our Son, well, let’s say I think last night was a bit rough for him…

 

Last year Sham was like the walking dead. This year, she is mighty hyper and full of life. thank goodness as BW is like a zombie. It was a nice catch up with sham to see what they got up to last night. They bumped into one of BW’s friends. I love him I hope he and BW will end up best friends  forever. He is the friend who is going to be something in research. Bless him, he says he’s going to find a cure for RP. If anyone can, he can. He is so very brainy. He’s a really lovely lad.

 

So many of my friends were in bed before our Big Ben in London struck. We weren’t but I wasn’t far after that.

 

Of course, we did have an idiot who spoiled lives for three people including a Policeman. In Manchester, not far from the Irena where in 2017, so many poor people including so many children lost their lives to a bad man. Well last night, in the train station, an idiot took a knife to three people, slashing the ladies face and continuing to stab two others as I said one a policeman. Thank God, they didn’t die, but two of the people out of three, are badly wounded and it is said they will be in hospital for some time.

 

Gosh I would personally chop every single finger and thumb off him without using anaesthetic. That is after rearranging his face, just as he tried to do to that poor lady.

 

Knives are a problem in England. Terrorists are a nightmare and really need wiping out. How dare they use a Gods name in their evil actions? As if any God would justify such behaviours.

 

So, in our news, something we have to look forward to… In Germany, we can now have a third gender… so, if we are not male or female, we can have a third title… no more Mr. or Mrs. what will we be? Intersex… hahaha. Sorry, but it’s ridiculous. Someone who is gay, can you still be gay? Please tell me you can? Or is gay not a word any longer? A woman I know told me years ago about her perfect future. and she said her perfect world will be when we are all as one, no females or males. But why? Why can’t we be female and gay? The world is heading towards everyone thinking speaking and believing the same as well as feeling the same…

 

Now let’s think about scary dairy. Something I was reading today, there is no other animal who drinks milk after weening and especially from another species. But humans…

One professor wrote how cheese is an addictive food with something in it to get you hooked…

Apparently if you eat too much cheese, you can inflame your gut…

But they say if you only eat a small amount, you will be OK, as for milk, that apparently is different. I know my Son drinks almond milk and that has more benefits than milk does.

 

If you have a bad gut this means you are not absorbing the right vitamins and minerals, which isn’t good for the immune system and energy levels and even the mood of us all.

 

I was also reading those who have their appendix removed are in less chance of developing Parkinson’s disease. So many conditions come from our gut…

 

So, there is big news about sending probes to high places in the sky and beyond. 13 years of obscene money and we have children dying of cancer. I personally don’t care less what happens up there. I need to save our planet our people and our animals.

 

And now is 2019 the year for you to eventually write your book? I’m in various writing groups and I get shocked by how many people who are writing can’t name their characters. One way to remember who’s who is to write in a file the names of your characters and what they look like so you remember, their ages and occupations and any other details you have of them all in the same file.

 

How to choose names? Some famous writers pick names from their favourite football players. Some from their favourite movie.

 

School bullies or anyone who has given you the sack, they make good villains for your novel too.

 

As for the genre if you are writing romance, why have pink and sparkly covers? Why not black and white with a yellow bee on like a famous writer of love stories.

 

Jojo Moyes’ writes books in the romantic fiction section of book shops, but because her books are natural covers, men buy her novels. But remember as well, men do write love stories and in love stories, women fall in love with men and vice versa.

 

Titles are so important as well as the cover. Your book has to stand out.   

 

If you read your story back to yourself, does it make you want to turn the page? If not, then you need to change something, if you want to know what happened next, then keep going.

 

And remember to get your facts right… with the internet now days, it’s easy to do more research than ever before.

 

Do you have plans for 2019? Are you heading for a promotion at work? Is it your time to leave what you are doing and find a new career? There are a lot of people who break up at this time of year because of the New Year, new you. If you are on the receiving end, and you are a good kind person, I’m so sorry, but you can turn those pages and start your new chapter. You don’t want to be with someone who doesn’t want to be with you.

 

And on that note, our house is warm and cosy, Sham is having her supper BW is watching TV our dogs are happy in front of the fire and we are about to watch our drama. Thank you for reading, and I hope you join me in 2019 with lots of things to think about and hopefully lots of inspirational breakthroughs. With love.
