Share Your Snaps.8. 40/52. #LifeThisWeek. 2018.99.
This is a favourite prompt for many.
Take a group of photos from what’s been happening lately in your part of the world.
It might be a retrospective or indeed something that is very current.
My post is both!
My husband was bewildered that I would show a series of photos of “just my face” in this….and I said, it is what I blog about and my readers often seem interested in my progress. Make this prove him wrong, I say!
As you know I have had cancer in my upper gums and under my lip and this has brought about some challenges for me.
My appearance was not as it turned out as important to me as it was for me to:
- speak
- eat
- communicate
- smile
This little video, with a favourite piece of music right now, is here.
I sing this song often in the car and even as I am working. It totally explains for me what I have HAD to do to get better and how it takes

The video starts before I knew I had cancer…and then in under 3 minutes takes the viewer from there to now where I can

You’ve gotta have heart
All you really need is heart
When the odds are sayin’ you’ll never win
That’s when the grin should start
You’ve gotta have hope
Mustn’t sit around and mope
Nothin’s half as bad as it may appear
Wait’ll next year and hope
When your luck is battin’ zero
Get your chin up off the floor
Mister you can be a hero
You can open any door, there’s nothin’ to it but to do it
You’ve gotta have heart
Miles ‘n miles n’ miles of heart
Oh, it’s fine to be a genius of course
But keep that old horse
Before the cart
First you’ve gotta have heart
Part of the lyrics: Damn Yankees. My version:Damn Yankees (1994 Original Broadway Cast Recording)
I find singing (around the house and in the car) is a way of releasing any anxiety and I have fun doing it. I am definitely someone who loves her Show Tunes. However, it was only this year I discovered this song!
Have you got a song that helps you along?
