Not sure if I'm feeling better or just forcing myself to do things.

Went to take up glass recycling, while it was still properly dark. Two lads walking up the street, they were being quiet but something set me on edge and I couldn't do it. I don't know if it was because I normally only see dog walkers really early that it made me tense up. The glass will wait until daylight, or tomorrow.

I have cleared the cupboard downstairs of the cardboard mountain though and taken out little bits of rubbish that go in the garden bins.

Laundry is also in the machine. Outside the childs bedroom is a wooden chair, I have piled it high with his clean laundry. When he comes out his room later he will exclaim loudly, and those words will either be "son of a bitch" or "motherfucker", and I will cackle as I hear him put his laundry away.

Time for another coffee before I drag the hoover out, I swear there is enough cat hair clumps on the carpet to make another cat.

I am still not awake enough for this!

My weird future art and writing dreams:

1. Publish book that is popular but not so that I'd need to be live on camera or travel.

2. Be hired to do NSFW phone game.

3. Be hired to make smut novel covers because I want to try it out.

4. Make interesting small horror games with a team of strange entities.

5. Make a funny fantasy comic in a terrifying world...

6. Have like 6 clones of me to worknwith this is too many dreams to ever make come true...

Sitting in her wheelchair, Haneen al-Mabhouh dreams of rebuilding her family, of cradling a new baby. She dreams of walking again. But with her leg gone, her life in Gaza is on hold, she says, as she waits to go abroad for further treatment.

An Israeli airstrike in July 2024 smashed her home in central Gaza as she and her family slept. All four of her daughters were killed, including her 5-month-old baby.

Jana, a 15-year-old Palestinian girl, was traumatized 18 months ago when dozens of Israeli soldiers besieged the tent her family had fled to after bombardment south of Deir Al-Balah.

Soldiers stormed the tent, shouted at the family, and opened fire, severely wounding her father in the leg before abducting him by helicopter.

Jana and her siblings were subjected to severe psychological terror: Jana was handcuffed, her mother was blindfolded and restrained, and soldiers threatened to kill Jana in front of her while forcing the mother to choose which child would be killed first.

The children were left handcuffed along with their grandmother for more than 10 hours. Jana continues to suffer lasting psychological and neurological trauma from the ordeal.

I lettini abbronzanti aumentano il rischio di melanoma del 75% prima dei 35 anni. Ma il dato più inquietante riguarda dove può comparire il tumore: anche nelle zone che il sole (e le lampade) non hanno mai toccato. I ricercatori dell'Università di Leicester hanno scoperto perché.

Ich bin aktuell wieder [immer noch?!] ziemlich erkältet und möchte kurz vermelden, dass ich aus dem Schlafzimmer hier KÜHE sehen kann❣️🤩🥳

Ja, ich wohne quasi an der Stadtteilbrauerei, wirklich DIREKT am Schnellweg und 500m von der Kläranlage entfernt, nichtsdestotrotz gibt es aus allen Fenstern Natur pur, Leinemasch und eine riesige Tanne in die eine Richtung vor den Fenstern [Schlaf-/Wohnzimmer] - und einen begrünten großen Innenhof mit u.a. Eichhörnchenbesuchern auf der anderen Seite [Küche].

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Saturday. MrsD is home from Glasgow, Wesley is over the moon, as expected. The house is no longer tidy. Sigh. Looks like we are shopping today.

Have yourselves a merry little Saturday, enjoy today, whatever you are doing. Have fun, have laughs (or have kayaks as autocorrupt just suggested for "laughs"!), take care.

I suppose, as Christmas is approaching, I better decorate the tree? The photo today is a fake! Can you spot it?
