I've Changed... open.substack.com/pub/denysewhel… but I have experienced huge stressors over 10 years inc #hnc #oralcancer #surgeries and today I wrote here (open link) to share more about DENYSE you see here....

Getting to age of 3/4 of a century soon & knowing how quickly time flies, I’m more interested in family & heritage. Had DNA results back & no real surprises but my forebears are from UK & some settled in southern highlands. I looked around #bowral today thinking about my Papa.

Cool day, 20 mins drive to see Scheyville National Park. Very quiet but kangaroos around. This place was "home" to migrants & later to officers in army & more. Of course it is part On #darug country & part of NSW National parks

Listening in to #meanstreak written & read by Rick Morton & (sorry Rick) upping the speed from 1.0 to 1.2 makes it somewhat ok but maaaaate I can't do more than 30 mins at a session. HOW on earth did you WRITE it. I want to THROW things at #scomo #abbott & lackeys #robodebt
