My last post about the queues in Tesco after a glutinous week for many… and then I see the children of Gaza… Palestinian children are freezing, starving and dying. Donate to aid charities please. #Palestine

Tesco outrageously busy. It’s as if we’ve all starved ourselves over the last week and eating is a matter of life or death.

There’s a difference between being alive and LIVING though. #liveauthentically

Heard someone say how all they see on socials is people announcing engagements or pregnancies. Thing is, people don’t post about the arguments, break ups and tears….especially not while wearing matching pyjamas.

Decided a few months ago I’m joining a book club. First meet is next week and I’ve yet to read a single page. I’m still that 15 year old overnight crammer.

Don’t moan about family visits or children waking up too early. These are the things you’ll miss when they’re no longer an option.

#perimenopause means I can only drink organic wine. Means I can no longer go out to drink wine. What a shame.

I remember having worries about the turkeys legs. Should they be open and wanting? Crossed? Tied together like a kidnap or tucked under? Poor thing needs dignity in its final hours

Do I have anxiety or adhd. Flitting between the two feels adhd but makes me anxious, ffs this diagnosis fixated society gives me both!

I’d like to educate the younger generation on why anyone over 40 isn’t super great with make up…. This was our learning, just the gift of a decapitated head one Xmas and a greasy palette in primary colours that came with it. #girlsworld #80smakeup #90smakeup

A crow outside sounds like a delivery van reversing. I’m sure it’s taking the piss as twice I’ve thought orders had arrived

Finished #sweettooth on Netflix. Oh wow I loved it. #witchywatch

Try not to spend on crap tomorrow. You don’t need it. A bag of flour in #palestine is $36 today. Maybe send it there instead rather than adding to the landfill

The price of a carton of eggs is 225 shekels in Deir al-Balah!! The equivalent of 63 dollars. This is the life of a Palestinian in #gaza. #FreePalestine

When kids today hear the term ‘knickerbocker glory’ do they think it’s a depraved sex act?

Honestly seeing people standing around with camera phones videoing #liampaynes funeral was so low. So many were there simply to rubberneck and celeb spot. Rethink your values and ethics; a family is mourning and all they asked of you was respect.

Never a #1D fan (too old) but today was really sad seeing the ones #liampayne loved and who loved him left behind. He seemed like a sensitive and kind young guy - something this world is short of.
