Well the punches keep rolling for the ol' girl.

Just learned yesterday big C. in the bowel. Looks like IV.

The last 8 months have been hell for her ever since that fall and now completely unrelated.. this. Pretty limited therapy when pushing 80yo. She'll be going in for an op but chemo/radio is out of the question. Working out the spread basically means just working out (guessing) how long.

Universe can be cruel.

e: Thanks all for the kind words.

Dear sox, curling up next to me in a cute purry lump is LESS likely to get me out of bed to feed you

As if I didn't already have a problem getting out of bed in the mornings...

I preemptively bought more pseudo cold and flu tablets and good thing I did, I'm really feeling it now.

At least I have enough hard drugs to get through the long weekend

Tentacle of the giantest octopus ever, wrapped around a ham and cheese croissant like it doesn't want to let it go

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A plate of tiny little tentacles, lightly spiced and deep fried

elon just broke up with trump and itโ€™s the best popcorn

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

A few months ago, was having drink with a mate and we both predicted that the Musk-Trump love affair is gonna be gone by mid year.

Should have put some money on it with a betting agency.

My mother was in my dream. We were looking at family photos. I lost most of mine in the bad years.

I miss her dearly.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I don't really have a concept of an afterlife but I like to think dreams like that are my mum coming back to say hi when she knows I need her. Hugs.

Man I miss cooking and eating. I wasnโ€™t โ€œgoodโ€ but enjoyed doing it and my health has ruined all that

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

then buy simple food that needs no prep, like fresh fruit, healthy yoghurt, nuts and dried fruit,

make healthy platters like CEO does

it's not cooking per se but it is good ๐Ÿ‘

and hugs too, can't have too many hugs ๐Ÿ˜Š
