The "joy" of Brain Farts. Spending almost 5 minutes clicking the dispenser on my eye drops. Then realising that I'd actually get the drops if I took the cap off. Duh! #chronicillness

Her Meowjesty, Maya, enjoying a cream treat. And always the tail is swishing. #catsofbluesky

I had a short walk in the village along with hubby and pooch this afternoon and was cheered by the sight of the new growth all around. I took these pics in our garden when we got back. Certainly restored my faith in things getting better. 🤗♥️

More than a little fed up with this Lurgey thingy now. I'm getting kicked about by it like never before. I was up at silly o'clock,went in the shower and sat up listening to Rock and Metal till gone 3am. My head feels like it's full of gooey stuff and my body doesn't want to work. Bleah!

Today is being brought to you by, Pain, Fatigue and a large, unnecessary bout of the Lurgey! I've had my meds and a Cuppa. I've tested myself for Covid, thankfully negative. Time now to listen to Classic Rock and chill out. The rest of today has been summarily cancelled. 🤧😵‍💫🥴

This may look like a simple case of Maya laying out on my legs but, notice the front paw! That is the precursor to "The Jab". The reaction to me even slightly moving, or even thinking of moving. Looks like I'm not going anywhere anytime soon. #catsofbluesky

Living with Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue means not being able to take the simplest of things for granted. Like Showering. That supposedly simple task takes me best part of an hour and damn near knocks me for 6 for the rest of the night. Bleah! #chronicillness

Another 3am disruption. All joints aching, lower back joining in the party this time. Got up, had to give all 3 cats treats before getting my cuppa, cereal and pain killers. Sat up till 5ish before heading back to bed. More than a little fed up with all of this now. 🤨

I woke up at around 3am and could just hear the Me'ews coming from Jaffa outside. She wasn't at the door when I opened it. I heard her again and looked up to see her looking over the edge of the roof. Took her a while to get down, but when she did, I got the full telling off. Pic just cos. 😊

Soon, somebody or something, managed to give my Fibro Gremlin, Gordon (is a Moron) new tools to make my life even more unbearable. A bloody great hammer and knife. He's doing his best right now to smash any part of me that wasn't already hurting. I hate the little git! #chronicillness

Merry Twixmas Blue-sky. Quick question. Does anyone else have a dog who desperately, DESPERATELY, waits to be vacuumed? Here's Eddie, not so patiently, waiting for his Dad to do the deed for him. #dogsofbluesky

Then this happens...... She stretches, then falls asleep again like this! Life with cats. Never dull. 🤨

2am on Christmas morning. Why am I still up? Wrapped the last few presents and sorted out the gifts to take to the rest of my Hooligans tomorrow. It's been a long day, and I'm beyond tired. Thankfully, today is going to be quiet, just the three of us. Merry Christmas everyone. XX 🤗 💖

Her Meowjesty, Miss Maya, is staging a single feline protest. I'm not wearing my regular leggings. Today is a Lounge Pants day. I'm also wearing my fluffy Lounge Top, she is not a fan! Sorry Sweetie, today is a day for resting my achey, busted body. #catsofbluesky #chronicillness

Anyone would think he's had a tough morning! Apart from going for a walk earlier, in the rain, I might add, he's had a lush out day. Lord Edd, The Destroyer. Yeah, right!! #dogsofbluesky

So, here I am. It's 6.30 in the morning, and I'm sitting up in bed drinking a cuppa, waiting for the meds to kick in. My usual time to be up is about 8, but I was rudely woken at half 5 by our big ginger lump of a cat jumping on my sore hip, just so she could go out through the window. Bleah! 🤨

On a day like today (bright but bloody cold), there is only one thing to do.... Big mug of @yorkshiretea.bsky.social and Gluten Free Angel cake slices from @sainsburys.bsky.social. Yup, Sorted. 😊

This came up on my News platform this morning. "Team Trump: 'Great minds think alike- but can they run a country?" Of course, I'm reminded of the full saying. "Great minds think alike, Small minds rarely differ." Nuff said. 🤔
