So the latest fun in my life, is I’ve rapidly developed cataracts in both eyes as a side-effect of the treatments I’m on 🙃 It’s not too bad right now, but the sudden onset means it may also progress quickly. Why does life-saving treatment also have to be so life-altering?! 🫠

I’m still here (mostly lurking) for now… but you can also find me where skies are bluer & the bots are fewer! I’m not posting much yet, what with still being miserably unwell (☹️), but I’ll hopefully be back to my usual antics in the next wee while so drop me a follow please!

Welp that’s the worst insomnia night yet & I had 3 medical appts to get through today. This symptom resurgence is too much. I feel almost as bad as I did in Sept 😩 Knowing I should be in Prague w/Em & pals makes it even worse. That’s holiday no.3 I’ve missed out on this year ☹️

Amazing work 👏👏👏 Kelvin Holdsworth was this line your doing? I’ve been thinking about Ashley & Janey’s many friends & family today. Janey always reminded me of my mum, they had the same grit & sense of humour, despite traumatic childhoods. Both incredibly strong women taken too soon.

Missing yet another gig due to current health situ 😩 I’ve lost count of the events I’ve missed since Aug but it’s into double digits now. Was hoping I’d manage tonight; it’s just a wee folk gig. It was going to be a roadtest for returning to “normal life” but my body says no ☹️

Just saw Easter eggs in my local coop. Easter eggs!!! We’ve barely finished celebrating the holy wean’s birth, could we not give it at least a month before thinking about his death?!

Can confirm we’re getting hit pretty hard in Bishopton. Power is out and estimate for restoration is 1:30pm tomorrow. Fences and trees are down, even the metal housing for an electricity exchange has blown off and is careering down the road. I’ve never experienced winds like it.
