Morning lovelies😊

Going to play here for a while. The other sandpit is getting more vile by the second!

What's up w/ me:

In Sept I started #Infliximab Infusions& #Mounjaro. I was so ill/inflamed I was in full body crisis in danger of organ issues. On crutches 0 quality of life

Today QofL is 8/10
I'd like the 17th to hurry up 🔥🐎
I'm sick of this 🐍 shedding lark...
Everything is deciding to remind me they're part of my life the last 9 years...

Rotator cuff, glutes max & med, neck, hip...

I'm expecting full rejuvenation next week...

So a wee update

Sadly the little angel didnt make it 😭

He was chipped, owner was found

17yro rang the vets all off his own steam Thurs, asking, knowing gdpr, they couldn't tell him much

But they were gracious enough to say that the owner got to see him before he passed✨️

Lots of hugs for 17yro
One of our neighbrs knockd earlier, a cat had takn solace on her porch step, in a bad way.
They're not "cat ppl", we are!

Pouring🌧 they get a towel, I get a📦 17yro gently lifts🐈

Off they go to local vet

There's our 17yro claiming hes 18 to the vet so he can b the contact

Now thts a good soul ✨️💫

Gotta love being #hypermobile

Slipped on stairs grabbed bannister with [already bad shoulder] right arm...

A nice grinding pop

Stiff now, that'll be sore tomorrow

Living my best collapsing toy life...

Awwhhhh Punxsutawney Phill, say it ain't so! #GroundhogDay

Luckily, we've our own wee weather predicting folklore #Imbolc, if it's fair the cailíní are able to collect wood, implying more winter to come.
It's not at all fair here today, &as it's overcast/grey here #Candlemas says winter is tying up

My BratBríde is in, kept safe.
🌕water put out at dusk, crystals out in midnight🌕
My Titanium Quartz has turned 💜 the colour I'm leaning to most/my aura.
Last night's 🌕 was high energy, giving us the🚪we must close to move forward as our authentic selves.
Time for thinking is done, action is upon us✨️🌌

Spring has Sprung 🌱

Maybe if the meteorologists let the natural calender do her job instead of using finite numbers to predict the unpredictable, nature might start to heal...

Go the Metaphysical... 2026 starts now

I went to bed...

Remembered i'd forgotten my Brat Bhride...

I chose a white vest this year.. Many meanings for me.

This also tipped me into my daily health activity targets

I have to write a few slides on transference when it comes to young people in alternative education/training. It’s for a group of first year social care students I am hosting next week.

Reading suggestions welcomed!

Slept all night, except for when crazy dreams woke me, floods, weird weddings, murderous behaviours...

Its safe to say my eventful week played on my mind...

Heading away for a night today, looking forward to chilling... So needed...
