Lynne

I have 1,648 books on my Kindle. I have read 482 which leaves 1,204 left to read. 64 of these books are Complete Works Of. I have recently been diagnosed with incurable but treatable cancer. I swear I’m not dying until every book has been read!

@sqwawk I don’t like the fight terminology but I’m still sitting here crying and wishing things were different for you and your wife. Life is so unfair, it really is. X

...hard enough, or that her valiant struggles to extend her time with her daughter and me, shouldn't be regarded as anything other than a battle royale; one-sided and futile maybe, but a glorious fight was put up by her nonetheless ❤️

I know a lot of people in the cancer community don't like the "fighting" terminology, but fighting is what we do. We get up, fight to put a positive face on. Fight to beat the pain and get to appointments at inconvenient times. Fight to keep on top of running the household (1/3)

A man I sometimes chat to in the park when walking our dogs was telling me this morning about his new rescue chickens. He pretty much made my day when he told me he’d called them Hen Solo, Jabba the Cluck, Obi-Hen Kenobi and Princess Layer.

@lucyhascancer I slept all day yesterday and all night too.

@HelenAshby72 Thanks, have added it to my list.

@MattStage4 Enjoy! I’m having a Baileys and Hot chocolate.

@Gizzerwiz @CJ_liberte Not any more I hope, after this.

@CJ_liberte Look you have to face it..if transrubbish wasn't a thing India Willoughby wouldn't have a job. India is simply keeping the paychecks rolling in!

This is really desperate stuff

@annikadukes @roobsleiser Must be hard. You can always switch it off though until you find it less overwhelming.

@billiebumble @roobsleiser I was mostly appalled and distracted by all kinds of tiny and annoying sounds I had been missing… like little beeps and clicks in the car, and sounds the computer made at work. Your brain gets used to them, but at first I was like “I didn’t need to hear any of this”

@DreyfusJames I don’t get these people, it’s so simple and fundamentally right what Kellie is saying I don’t know why people don’t get it. I admire Kellie so much, she just keeps on going. One day people are going get the light bulb moment I’m sure.

“Give a man a spade, and he’ll dig for the day. Teach him how to dig, & he’ll just keep on digging, regardless…”

@nicolajoiner @roobsleiser Amazing. X

@billiebumble @roobsleiser I drove my OH to distraction by constantly going T, T, T after getting my first set because I could hear the echo 😂 That and bursting into tears when I heard bird song for the first time in years.

@shopper61 @LakotaMan1 That’s the best book. It made me cry buckets and every word is true. So sad, and so wrong.

Dec. 29, 1890 — Chief Big Foot’s body frozen in time on the icy tundra of Wounded Knee. Today I honor his sacrifice. I share Native history not to guilt shame anyone. Instead, I teach non-Natives an accurate historical narrative — that our educational system failed to provide.

@PamelaMayoss @reece_dinsdale Thank you. X

Each day is an opportunity to change your story. It’s not always easy nor, for many, does it even seem possible… but it’s worth the attempt. What can you do differently today?

Check out this book: "Silver Sparrow: From the Winner of the Women's Prize for..." amzn.eu/387d6h7

@ElizAthertonSop Most of them. It’s the chronic runs that’s the hardest to deal with. I’ve been up and down to the loo all day. A district nurse is coming tomorrow.

@billiebumble Oh, bless you, Lynne. I’m so sorry. Are they able to manage your symptoms at all right now? X

Found this on fb memories from 2015. York was totally flooded, which we narrowly avoided, the internet was down and I got thinking about life and how fragile it is. How prophetic!

@ElizAthertonSop Not yet Elizabeth, it seems to be getting worse.

@billiebumble Hope you’ve had a good few days, Lynne. ✨🎄🌟

@feeepp52 Thank you Fiona. X

@billiebumble Lovely poem ❤️

@feeepp52 That’s near where I live, I watched the dinghys at work. Thanks to them it was about the only crossable route at our end. It was 3 days before I could get the mile to my mothers.

@billiebumble We missed it all lynne 🤦🏼‍♀️ we were in Glasgow 😃 My pal was taken by dinghy from Huntington road 😱

@Deliriousisms My dad met my cousin’s partner for the first time (about 30 years ago), he said to her I don’t know whether to shake your hand or kiss you, she said why not do both? Grabbed his hand, pulled him in and gave him a great big smacker on the lips. He loved her from that moment on.

My dad goes "so this is why you have boobs?"

I'm about to come out to my parents. Wish me luck
