I’ll live vicariously through others when it comes to the bowling. 🥴

Chances are pretty high that I’ll be quoting this in my thesis about plague, pox, pestilences and poverty in 16th century Paris, which our last five years have been alarmingly similar to and not in a good way.

This is what they have done forever and will continue to do until we destroy ourselves.

Sorry, it’s 5 am and this is just triggered the historian in me. Plague, pox, pestilences and poverty is the theme of my thesis about 16th-century Paris. Plus ça change and all that. 😳☹️🤬

The looks on people‘s faces when I say my rheumatoid arthritis is my forever present from #COVID / #LongCOVID. Immediate shutdown of their brain you can see it in their face, in their eyes.

Last year I was talking to my nephew and then he said I have to go because I’m going bowling and I realised that I’d never be able to bowl again now I’ve got bloody rheumatoid arthritis. I bloody loved bowling. Hope you get to bowl again! 🎳

I have the photocopy and I scanned it and it saved in five different places that are logical but factoring in the slight disarray that my little grey cells are in. Just increases my chance of finding it when I’m in contrary or special mood. 🥴🤭

About 20 years ago, I had to do a security vetting thing and I had to remember all of that. Fortunately, my brain functioned then. I filled in that form. I then copied it for myself and whenever that gets asked of me now, I go to that form. 🥴

I think there’s many millions who obviously think exactly the same thing. All those worthy winners who did decent wonderful things of being overshadowed by that absolutely horrible man.

I bet he put himself forward for this.

Sorry. Someone is annoyed. Can you tell? 🥴

I am just loving the solidarity and the care and the comradeship of the women I’ve encountered during this rather visible #perimenopause of mine. Girls rock! 😑

I think Morrison has proven that the Federation is dead. And he pretty much killed it. Back to the states looking after themselves and working together to do things together. Scrap the Federation and start again. Western Australia Australia had it right 126 years ago.

I’m not kidding. I think they have demonstrated quite conclusively over the last five years in particular that they think they are better than all the other states and territories and that they are the actual leaders of the country. And that became even more apparent during the Morrison chaos.

In 2023 when my #JohnFarnhamUterus was going insane with all its farewells, I was purchasing 30 to 40 packets of pads every shop, plus, of course, chocolate. And I knew the ones packed by a woman, ‘cos there was always one or two items of chocolate that I didn’t order. And I did like them. 🤭
