10 years ago today I went to the chemo ward with my dad and it was so dreary with the news that one of our most iconic musicians had passed of the same illness everyone in that room was fighting… only thing that brought joy during that time was the cbb “David’s dead” incident really
Today marks 10 years without David Bowie

Back to try Bluesky again bcos I looked up “low calorie meals” on X one time for healthier lunch ideas and now I’m flooded with eating disorder Twitter and I dunno how to fix it and mentally can’t handle it

First seedlings of 2025 have began germination, multi-sewn onions! Too early for most other things here but provides a very hopeful start to the year!

For work I’ve been attending some dementia music group sessions and it’s really made me think of the wild songs that they’ll have on that set list in 50 years time like a bunch of 78 year olds with walking aids screaming 212

Fantastic day today collecting for my local foodbank, so many generous souls out there and will make such a big different to those experiencing food poverty in our local community this Christmas time!

Would rlly love a Spotify wrapped style breakdown for all areas of my life. How many greggs sausage rolls did I eat in 2024, how many baths did I take? How many hours watching true crime on Netflix, i needty know. We are in the age of information, and I want all the information.. on myself

Absolutely freezing where I am today, grateful to be able to put my heating on but my heart and thoughts go out to everyone in the UK facing the ‘heat or eat’ crisis

on here to say if you have access to a local library, get a library card!! it helps with library funding and also a lot of libraries allow you to read ebooks via an app called Libby (you can also send those ebooks to your kindle!!!)

A lot of the people I am working with just now are fantastic knitters and make themselves all sorts from hat, blankets, cardigans etc and I’m jealous! Anyone got any tips for someone looking to learn how to knit self-taught? Good needle sizes for beginners?
