Every year on New Years Eve I take a selfie and write a few notes out to social media world. Figured you could read them too :)





2021

I’d write a haiku But it’s a hard thing to do Twenty twenty-two


Twenty twenty-one You’ve come and finally gone Take your shit go home


I won’t talk virus The one thing to divide us Just rhymed with walrus


A first-time school camp A first time to break a hand My little girls dance


Smile I try to hide Shredder behind camera lens Tears falling with pride


Friends I count with smiles Two zero twenty and two Feel the sun on you


Love to all my friends And Two Zero Two One ends Just one parting gift

2020

Ever walk out of a movie and not know whether you liked it or not? That’s kinda 2020 for me I wish I had something more profound to say, but it really is kind of vanilla


Hotel towers, security guards, Donald and electric cars, Fires all around the place, A tiny bug stopped the human race

Speak on mute is now a thing Another f$&king zoom meeting Work from home is our new norm Beirut had a hellfire storm


We didn’t start the virus All across the nation Waiting for vaccination

We didn’t start the virus Some dude in Wuhan Ate from the wrong food van


Prince Harry and Meg renounced, Stock market crashed and bounced Kanye wants the biggest crown But he piked out and let us down

The orange fella got impeached Sydney had to close the beach Sent some guys to outer space 2020 what a waste


We didn’t start the virus They call it COVID 19 I feel like a has been

We didn’t start the virus As for twenty twenty Well we’ve had plenty


Here’s to you Jac

Ten things I learnt in 2019:

1. For some strange reason, my children still love me, even when I let them down 2. The opposite of a smile doesn’t have to be a frown 3. Some people think the Earth is flat, but I think it’s round 4. The greatest music is emotion captured as sound 5. I have been given more than I need, so my need is now to give 6. I miss my Nanna, but what a life to live 7. Work is what I do between weekends but the people make it cool 8. If a fool’s gold is their gold, maybe I should be a fool 9. It’s more important to some to be careful than to be kind 10. Those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter don’t mind 11. I’d write a haiku, but I’d run out of time 12. Oh shit that’s 12 - and I got a new hat....
