Got this for my wife last week, as Lou is getting quite unhappy and frustrated with her health and life. I do my best for my lovely wife but being Blind with Mobility issues and on Nightly dialysis takes it tole. #MotivationalMessages #FullTimeCarer

Woo, happy self assessment tax return day. Glad I've submitted mine today. That's it for another year. #SelfAssesmentTaxReturn

Please share. 💔

Take me back to 1984. What a motor. #BackToTheFuture #Delorian

Today is a sad day for me today as I lost my mother fifteen years ago today. My mother Patricia will forever be in our hearts. It's a tragic way she passed away as she was found Christmas morning lying in the snow outside her front door while my father and brother were in the house.

It's hard work having mental health issues and having to look after a wife who is blind, with kidney failure and severe mobility issues but I'm very grateful for my life and the wonderful people in it. #mentalhealthissues #malementalhelth

Well today is the last day of my forty ninth year. I should be happier tomorrow. #birthday #50yearsOld

So, my life is devoted to seeing things that I cannot understand and obtaining things that are impossible to have. I succeeded by two means: money and will.

It's that time of year again and I'm in the throws of #depression it seems to get the better of me about this time each year. If others out there are suffering then do know you are not alone. I find that using brain.fm and reading helps. #SadDepression #MensMentalHealth #SAD

Spent a lovely afternoon driving out to #GreatTew yesterday to visit #TheFalklandArms and I jokingly said to Lou that we're off to meet #SirDavidBeckam as he's a local. Believe it or not when we arrived Sir David was actually there and sat outside having a pint. What a lovely fellow. #Cotswolds

As a disabled person I am not “insulted” by the tiny number of folk circumventing the system… I’m insulted by disability benefits being less than a liveable amount. By the process being inaccessible and harming vulnerable people. By ableists making ableist assumptions.

Far too true. I'm a full time carer for my wife and have been paying into the system for some 34+years the same as my wife. Last week while Imputting my income and expenses, I made a small mistake and rectified it an hour later. However my wife's payment for tomorrow is now delayed.

@ravenology.bsky.social oh wow hey Chris good to see you here. I tried three times over the years to meet up with you at the tower to get my copy signed. Alas was not meant to be.

Bless him. Our Teddy on the bed doing what he does best. #caturday #cats #catsofbluesky

@chelchell.bsky.social How's the holiday going Rachel?

Today it's a special day for my wife Louise and I. We have been together for a total of Six Thousand Days.

So I'm currently 45 mins into a boost in Lichfield and I've not had a single order. It was bust up till 4pm and what's the betting it will get busy at 5pm when the boost ends. #DeliverooRider

This is hands down one of the greatest videos I've ever ever seen. Goto love the ending. youtube.com/shorts/alGAk...

Hey @bsky.app notnsure why but I have an #InvalidHandle again. I have verified the domain dns record but it's still showing as invalid.

Enough said.

I goto say that since finding the brain.fm app my reading is so much better and a lot more pleasurable. I've been using it for two weeks now and it's helluva awesome. Try it my fellow #BookReaders. #Bookish #BookSky #Reading #ReadingCommunity

Well worth a repost.

Phew that took a good while to do yesterday. Got rid of my old bookcase and built up two new bookcases to match the first one. So much more space in my reading room now. #Bookish #BookSky #Reading #ReadingCommunity #ReadingRoom #BookCase.

Wow, I just realised I only have another 15 weeks of my 40s left. #BecomingFifty

I got me a new book today seeing as I've been reading 800+ novels of late. I think that this will be a welcoming break. Anyone read this before? #Bookish #BookBlog #BookSky #Reading #LordOfTheFlies #WilliamGolding

Happy Caturday… 🐱 #caturday #bluesky

I'm thinking that I going need a bigger brain after this... #TheBrothersKarazamov #FyodorDostoevsky #BookSky #Reading #ReadingCommunity

Sat outside and just started reading what some people say is the Greatest Novel of all time. It's The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky. Love your thoughts on this book. #Book #BlueSkyBooks #Bookish #FyodorDostoevsky #TheBrothersKaramazov

Working all day looking after my bunny who now needs Kidney Dialysis each night. Thought it a good time to read #TheIliad and enjoy a pint. #Bookish #BookSky #Carer #KidneyHealth #DialysisJourney

in 50 years we’ll all be in the same old group chats, sharing the same old memes for nostalgia’s sake, in a bold attempt to cling on to some semblance of cognisance, as we begin the slow decline into the madness of death and beyond

I'm nearly fifty years old and consider myself an Oak tree due to my age and experience. What tree do you consider yourself to be and why. Love your opinions. #BookSky

Teddy and I chillin at home after a long and hard day. #cats #catsofbluesky #BlueSkycats

I'm reposting this because most of what I've just read about is not Food but - Industrially Produced Edible Substances.

Ultra-processed #foods 🍔🍟 are linked to #dementia #cancer 🤮💊🤒 #depression #stroke and #heart disease 🫀 #Palmoil is a saturated fat implicated in many of these same #health risks.#Boycottpalmoil in the supermarket, choose wholefoods! @palmoildetect.bsky.social palmoildetectives.com/2024/03/31/c...

My goodness, this book is changing my relationship with food already even though I'm halfway through it. My days of consuming Processed Edible Substances are coming to an end. #UltraProcessedPeople #ChrisVanTulleken #BookSky #Bookish

Nearly finished reading the three @foliosociety.bsky.social books of #dune and I'm hoping they will soon do books 4, 5 & 6 of #DuneSeries who is with me? #FolioSociety #FrankHerbert

This is how I value myself. 1. Not Appreciated - Keep my distance 2. Not invited - I don't go 3. Invited Late - Decline 4. Ignored - Stop Approaching 5. Betrayed - Forgive and move on 6. Be forgotten - Forget them 7. Insulted - Outshine with success 8. Used - Set boundaries which are firm. #Lessons

Great to have a few hours off from my caring duties so have come to my local pub for a pint and to read my book. #Book #BlueSkyBooks #Bookish #BookBlog #BookSky #Reading #FrankHerbert #50BooksAt50 #DuneSeries #dune

Play this, you cowards. #Glastonbury #The1975

A spare thirty minutes drinking some aspall cyder while reading my copy of the #FolioSociety #ChildrenOfDune by #FrankHerbert. Not a bad afternoon here in the Sunny UK. #MuchLove #Bookish #BookBlog #Reading #BookSky

I love this quote. Really helpful for people like yours truly

Normalize praising people who are living a quiet, simple life. No grand accomplishments to their name. No aspiration to become the greatest in their field. Just a human, content and loving their life

What a perfect Tuesday morning. Just had my #Nespresso order delivered so am sat outside reading the #FolioSociety edition of #ChildrenOfDune #Bookish #BookBlog #BookSky #FrankHerbert

Great to see @hilaryclarcq.bsky.social on here. Currently reading #ChildrenOfDune from #FolioSociety and the illustrations on these books are awesome. #DuneSeries #FrankHerbert #Dune

Ouch! That was not called for. My rescue cat Teddy left his mark on my wrist today.

Bit different. Dad and I are in the pub on Fathers day today.

One cannot beg the Sun for Mercy.

Morning Friends.

MORNING! #BookSky
