"If that shoe-wiggler had bells sewn to the ends of the points, it indicated that the wearer was available for sexual frolics." 😱

Amid all the news of the CEO shooting in the USA I looked up the cost of my Taltz injection. Between $0-$507 with insurance. Every 4 weeks. That upper end is a yikes. Grateful for the NHS!

Craving doughnuts but specifically the ones they make fresh that you get from the seaside. I live in the middle of England, furthest from the sea.

Bought a Bissell spot cleaner so if I go missing I’m just cleaning every fabric or carpet based surface in my house. It’s SO SATISFYING.

It snowed quite a lot here here in the shire but on the plus side I’m ill so at least I didn’t have to put on the heating because I was burning up constantly. Was like being in a tropical climate in my body today. Small victories, eh? Probably saved myself a tenner.

My dog, Ruby, accidentally tore her favourite toy, Barney. He had to go away for a bit till I had time to surgically repair him so we bought another the same, called Bernard, for her to play with. She brings them both to bed now. Dogs 🥰

I have only recently found out AEW’s Josh Woods is not British. He looks like he could put on an accent and go on Love Island and no one would know.
