Loved #Strictly tonight. Really felt for Alex and Bal, nerves caused a couple of sticky moments. Probably worried about the instant dances. Which was a brilliant addition, I loved it! 🕺💃🪩🎉

Saturday again already - #therapy day. Managed to bring deep emotions to the fore on the way there, and cried in therapy. It's been difficult previously. It's also hard to cry & talk at the same time. Not very efficient use of the time 🙈😂 But pleased I was able to get vulnerable. #cPTSD #exJW

M.E. kicking my butt 😔 Very groggy and aching this morning. Been overdoing it for so long and it's hard not to, tbh. I use the Visible wristband and app, which helps with keeping me informed about my energy use, but I'm going over my daily amount daily. 🙄 I hate this 😔

Wow. I knew this day would come, I just didn't know it would be so soon.
I don't recognise anyone on this week's #HouseofGames 🤔

A difficult part of learning to adjust to hearing aids has been realising and trying to accept just how deaf I am.

Is it ok to just exist? To quit the daily drive to be fitter, thinner, more productive, more successful, worthier, happier, BETTER?

Sorry I replaced the baby Jesus in your nativity scene with a Grogu doll and called it “The Mangerlorian.”

GenX women are entering our perimenopause and menopause eras.
Y’all think we we were militant and feral before? Oh no, poppets, you ain’t seen shit yet.

I love how it feels like very early twitter here. All the freedom, new friends and fun without the vile cesspit of humanity sucking every ounce of joy and life from you with every visit. So that's nice.
