Struggling. My attempts to cope with the horrors of a world I no longer understand are posted here as paintings [and, occasionally drawings and photographs.] I also repost things that interest me by other people. No lists please. And no NFTs.
Thank you for re-posting Jo @jocaulfield.bsky.social Very kind of you and much appreciated. :-)

Slightly terrifying/ultimately quite revelatory about re-reading/re-listening-to writings done 15 years ago by yr younger self. 'SO, that's who I was then' is the redux.
These - first broadcast 2010 - are listenable for 28 days if you have 3 x 15 minutes for fiction.

I am now officially old [as well as decrepit]! The most recent letter I received from the hospital, after my December 'medical episode', was sent from the Department of Geriatric Medicine.
