Monday 8th January 

And so it is 
The return to reality 
Coming back home 
Where it's cold and icy 
But days are lengthening 
Degree by degree 
New ideas unfurl 
There to surprise me

Love you so much
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Sunday 7th January 

Hasta la próxima vez 
So long sunny Spain 
It's time to go home
But we'll be back again 
Thanks for a fabulous time 
But now we'll catch our plane

Love you so much

Family together 
Spanish holiday 
Long lazy lunch 
Wish we could stay
Yet have to pack
Soon on our way

Friday 5th January 

Lunch on the beach 
Beneath the sun's gaze 
Sunshine and smiles 
In a coastal daze 
Windblown waves 
With bodyboarders 
Catching the swell 
Quite the performers 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Thursday 4th January 

A bit better today 
Walked along the seashore 
Stopped for fresh orange juice 
Well-being to restore 

Cloudy, grey skies above 
Soon gave way to sunshine 
With retail therapy 
I'll soon be feeling fine 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons

Wednesday 3rd January 

And here we are 
Still in bed 
Chesty cough 
And a sore head 

Husband and son 
Went out in the car 
To a marina 
It's not that far 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Tuesday 2nd January 

Struggling today 
A raging headache 
Bad cough and cold 
Painkillers to take 

Stayed in bed 
A cocoon of rest 
On holiday 
Not at its best 

But tomorrow 
Brings a better day 
And all these germs 
Will go away 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Sunday 31st December 

New Year's Eve 
On Andy's Beach 
Food, drinks and music 
Fun and warmth for each 
Beneath the warm sun 
Life's a peach

Saturday 30th December 

To Benalmádena Pueblo 
Walking around the monument
Built for Christopher Columbus
Out of brick, stone and cement
