My drink-up was a lovely, funny, entertaining few hours, spent with the few that attended. A big shout out to my bestie Bench and his friend D, my Cuzie from my old endz South-East London.
A few of my walking ๐ถfriends ๐ค, my neighbour, Mr Messiah and Chi (who arrived as I was just getting into bed) but at least he come down even if he didn't get to attend. โบ๏ธ
You all made it a memorable night and appreciate that you made the time. So thank you ๐๐

๐Amen๐ for another year thanks to my great living God. Started of the morning trying on this sexy, black dress which I purchased from my #tiktokshop and it fits well ๐
Then I spent a beautiful few hours in the spa, relaxed, chilled and refreshed, then to my fav #pub #wetherspoons ๐คซ as their deals are too great and had a curry for the 1st time!
It was nice, filling but I'm all for the usual #fishandchips ๐
To my #nan love you, today is your day too and miss you lots. ๐
On Saturday 14th I've decided to have a little drink up, I've invited about 20-25 people, but it's those who make it that are the ones who were meant to be present. Either way I look forward to it ๐

SAT 9th JULY โ2022:
Today I went back to my old endz of south-east London.. due to my cuzie B holding a surprise gathering for her Dads 92nd birthday.
A big thanks to Bowza for lending me his car, as going back to South-East I tend not to do unless I have a car... so much appreciated. My Bessie mate Christian came with me which was nice, though I was not impressed at having to turn back around due to him leaving his phone! ๐
I was blasting the rare-groves tunes while driving and we were both singing along... bad tunes!
We got there (to Greenwich Park) at nearly 4pm, as I was near to pulling up Cuzie B called to see where I was and I informed her I wasn't far away. As we were approaching I saw my mum (who was leaving) with the others while saying goodbye to my cuzie Silburn.. who shouted out
"Look there's your daughter"
Mum looked around surprised and I said
"Hi Mum and gave her a hug"
She said something along the lines of
"Oh my god, I didn't expect to see you here / I didn't know you were coming. Nice to see you and we will catch up but I've got to go as it is my great-grandson's birthday party and obviously being the great-grandma I have to be there".
So we said bye and she left and I went to see/meet other family members.
Christian came over to me a little baffled as he mentioned when he was saying Hi to my mum she responded;
"your still around"
Really! Even I am confused about what she meant by that and I am sure I will get to ask her at some point. ๐ค
I was shocked when Cuzie B and her sister, told me her dad kept calling my name (wow), I haven't seen him since 2005 but have spoken a few times. I am honoured that he remembers me. ๐
I went straight over and greeted him with a big hug and kiss, he looks so well... god is great.
Plus I got to meet new family members and found out that I have family members with the surname;
- Brown (connected to Forbes)
Alongside Forbes, Coley... the family is so big.
The few hours there were just so lovely, the sun was beaming, the kids were running about playing, food and drink were flowing and the vibes were just positive and fab.
Thank you again Cuzie

I give thanks to God for blessing me with a new year, age, and decade.
I am humbly grateful for my great health and ability, for the roof over my head, for working and life in general... even during my low times! To get myself focused on what I want to do with myself, by God's Grace.
Thank you Boo, for a lovely 1st half of my b'day spent with you plus the Champs and pressies. Big kiss.xx
Thanks, Dad for coming and spending the other half of my b'day with me and the pressies too! Nuff love to both of these men.
Thank you to my Cuzie for her beautiful and meaningful words... my 1st electronic card ๐love it.

I give thanks to God for blessing me with another year... 39, wow! Nearly 40 and still trying to improve myself, learn and decide what I am doing with myself (sad but true).
Loved my creative self portrait photo that I filtered, no matter your age we must love ourselves and body... artistic nude!!! #
But I have my health and ability which is the main thing but I want to do more with myself and going to try and do as much as that this year onwards... I need to not be so hard on-myself as I DID finally accomplish my teenage vision of writing and becoming an author YAY!!
So I a proud and received great feedback too, just need Amazon Reviews and now I have created a comments section on my website tab #TJOAHP as I know people have been having issues commenting via amazon.
The review I received via FB from a family friend in her 20's was the best birthday gift I could have hoped for, thank you again T.x
All in all let see what I can accomplish and be proud of this year 2020...

Though... just like my sister I've not seen or spoken to him since '2011 when he was
(11yrs old) but "it is what... it is" contact or no-contact he is still my bro and love him lots.
This is his last year as a Teenager, before he hits his 20's next year... so I hope whatever he is up too he is happy, content and loving life. May he have a great day and may god bless him with many more years ahead.
Lots of love, your eldest sis.x

Today, had she still been alive ๐ my nan (mum's side) would have been celebrating her 90th birthday today. xXx
I have just found footage recorded when she was in the #nursinghome on Fri 6th Jan 2012, 6 days before she passed away. It breaks my heart ๐ to know I did not record this last moment for longer. ๐ข Something is better than nothing.๐
On Monday, 9th Jan 2012, she was admitted to hospital for a urine infection. I went both days to visit her on Tues 10th & Wed 11th to tell her I wouldnโt be coming on Thursday because it was my birthday... so I would be back on Friday!
I canโt believe itโs 6yrs since she passed away on 12th Jan, my 31st Birthday!! ๐ฅบ A day that I will NEVER forget and cherish every year... because only she and my fabulous God know how much she meant to me.๐
I am thankful, grateful and happy I got to know and spend quality time with her and have so many never-seen, priceless memories of our time together during the last ten years of her life living in a Nursing Home.
No matter her bad, wicked, and unkind treatment towards me in my younger years, I understand and forgave her years ago. I will never forget and have โno regretsโ because no one is โperfectโ, and the experience was meant to be part of my life journey. ๐ฏ
There is always a deep story behind every person who comes across as either (Cold, Mean, Unempathetic, Wicked or Reserved) to name a few! No one is born โBADโ. It stems from their damaging childhood, which affects them. #Facts
Nan,ย whatever you are doing up above... I hope you have a Splendid day in heaven. I love and miss you so much. x
1927, she was born back in Rock River, Clarendon, Jamaica ๐ฏ๐ฒ to her Jewish father (aka) my Great Granddad
ย
Name: Joseph Cedric Alonzo Dupee
Born: 1895
Died: 27th Nov 1977
Aged: 82
ย
My knowledge of my Great Grandma (is minimal) but my Cuzie junior knows a lot ๐

Wishing you a splendid day up in heaven... have a toast ๐ฅ for me and Iโll have 1 for you too. ๐ค

Love and miss you lots ๐๐๐

And then it just hit me... this day is not only a birthday celebration but also the day that my Nan (mums-side) died ๐ and passed over to the next life.
My heart that was just filled with joy and happiness... has just turned sad ๐ข while also understanding that today is also a CELEBRATION of her life.
Miss and love you nan... sorry I couldnโt come and lay some flowers at your grave today... but I will be sure to toast a drink ๐ฅfor you and the greatest of all is that I have so many great memories of us together during the last 10yrs of your life.
Thank you god for these... priceless moments. Love you nan ๐

@12:26pm - Today is 1 of my #welshbabies birthdays and she is 5yrs old. A real little madam, too clever and Iโm sure will be more than a handful ๐คฆโโ๏ธ as she gets older!!!
ย
Donโt know WHEN/IFย Iโll ever see my niece or nephew again... due to them having 1 of those #mums who uses their kids as #punishment for telling them some #hometruths about their #personalhygeine ๐
ย
I think thercan is nothing worse than any #parent stopping their #aunt from being able to see them, have them for the wkend/wk - but hey thank god they wonโt be kid forever and if their Mum hasnโt #poisoned their minds against me... then we will meet again!
ย
If not, then Iโm greatful for the few years that I saw them and will treasure all the footage, pics that I have of them... even more!
ย
I hope she likes her #card and #pillow with her personalised name on it - If given to her because who knows, the Mum could #bin it and make out like I donโt care ๐คทโโ๏ธ and not sent anything!!
ย
Wishing u a superb day my little sweetness and my god keep you safe, sound and protected always. ๐ #amen

There is not a day that goes by when she is not in my thoughts, and even more so on this particular day... as itโs both mixed emotions of happiness for seeing another year ๐๐พ and also sadness as I miss her so much.๐
I know she is watching over me, keeping me safe and proud of me, too, and my birthdays will always be a celebration for both our lives... we will meet again one day. xxx

Good Afternoon Mi Lovelies. As I'm at home continuing to work on Chapter 7 from 2011 for my working-progress Book;
'The Journey of a Hidden Princess: A British Lady's Path to Discovery of Her African Royal Bloodline'
I came across this video, which I've just watched for the 1st time... I completely forgot I had this!
The same way I write my Diaries is no different to any video footage I've recorded over the years... meaning I write and record but never go back and read or watch anything. It may sound weird, but it's true.
So, I am literally a first-time reader or viewer of my material, and this video is just 1 of many that I'm sure I will share with you all.
This was the last birthday I would spend with my Nan back in March 2011... because she passed away ten months later on my birthday, 12th Jan 2012. 5yrs already, wow! She would have been proud of me and is watching over me from above.
I will forever be thankful for the care and help from all the staff at Castlebar in Sydenham Hill, SE26 (her 2nd Nursing Home) for all you have done for her.
To Val (carer) for also becoming a great friend to my Nan and me during her time there.
From me, Nan... a Big Thank You. x

Christmas '2011, was the last xmas I got to spend with her and the xmas when she spent it not with her kids but in the nursing home... due to them deciding not to take her out!!!
It made me so mad ๐คฌ and i knew that she flet like a burden ๐ฅบ when this happened! Which is when i think she was more than ready to go... and she could have gone anytime BUT she/god waited until my birthday. What a gift!!!
From here onwards the 12th of Jan is both a celebration of my life when I was born and when my Nan passed over. I love you Nan and I hope you will bless me from above and rest in piece. ๐
Here is the last photo taken on Xmas Day '2011 with Nan in the Nursing Home
