I could've had free accommodation, 50% off return train fare, spend a bit of time with family, but alas ~ the place I've been wanting to visit has already sold out of tickets. (ﾟДﾟ)

(╥﹏╥)

I already missed out seeing #SuzanneVega last year at the same venue.

‼️Note to self: never combine your prescription antihistamine with your painkiller ever again unless you want a repeat of your weird dream of trying to get away from a Dungeness+spider crab that turned people into zombies b4 k*l*ng them.👀😖 #daymares #MindTheatreMusings

I know that I will see a #sunset as I stand on the beach one of these days.💖✨

A collage of screenshots from a chat with one of my good friends, her messages are inside the black bg: "Take it easy my friend Do things that make you happy" Her previous message "There's so much to learn. I think I have to start reading again instead of doom scrolling on my phon...) included with my reply (purple bg, cropped): "Me too! I kept buying books but" Her reply back (black bg): "Let's read something every day even if just one page"

You know you have a beautiful life when you have #friends who are there for you.

Thank you, V*🙏💖✨

#mindtheatremusings Oh, the stories behind all the years mentioned below, including 2012 and 2022 (not yet for 2026 as it's still early days 😁). Sometimes, when I allow myself to think about it, I wonder how I survived them all.

But yes, if I don't know what to say or reply, it's because

A photo of a used box of an old mobile/cell phone made by Sony Ericsson from the UK mobile service operator, 3 . It is a red camera phone and the Sony Walkman® logos are shown on the phone screen . The phone has a raised physical keypad and also the Walkman® device and other controls are also featured .

The one and only red phone I've ever had. I cried when I accidentally dropped it on the concrete pavement.🤦🏻‍♀️😅 Phone case protectors were unheard of back then.

No. I shouldn't and I mustn't, really (I still kinda want to live 😅😆 *looks around nervously for stans 👀*)

This week's added anxiety is finally catching up with me. 😥🤧

Looking for the #TheUntamed, XZ, and WY crew to spread some #FridayFeeling positive vibes, please. 🙏✨ Thank you. 🫶

*I apologise for the lack of replies, likes and usual photo posts. I'll catch up with you all soon.❤️

This post just brought a huge smile to my face 😃 reminded me about this cool dude back in high school. Spoke a few times over the phone, even got asked to go to the prom (he was a year above), but...

Leeds train station

A Transpennine Express train

Alas, it was time to see them off at the train station. They didn't want me to, as their train was on the opposite side of the station, and I also had my train to catch 15 minutes after theirs left. ☺️🤧👋💖 5/5

It was my father who introduced me to #TheBeatles. He brought back a couple of cassette tapes that he got from overseas (he used to work in the UAE at the time), and one of them was a compilation of their songs, which included this song and also my first name.

*Thanks, Dad 🥲🫶

This painting reminded me of watching in amazement as my seatmate drew and painted a replica during art class in 12th grade. 🤩👏✨

I showed this to my eldest daughter and she loved it - her favourite constellation and one of my favoured Saints and Archangel - in one place.

Thank you for this beautiful photo.🙏💖

I will be placed on another DMARD eventually, but until then, I'll explore other options, keep doing things on my end to slow down the progression and enjoy not being on any immunosuppressive treatment. 4/4

It's strange that my consultant now knows more about my declining mental health than my GP and my complete lack of trust and resignation I felt regarding NHS mental health services and the abysmal experiences I went through with them. 3/

I was sent to have a chest X-ray done immediately after the appointment, and I just need to wait for the appointment letters for an ultrasound of my hands and knees, and also for another cortisone injection, as the arthritis is really active there. 2/

My hospital appointment yesterday went better than I expected. 🙏 I told my consultant everything I previously said to one of the difficult specialist nurses. A fifth-year medical resident was also there—she was pleasant and didn't give any "uppity" vibes. 1/

A screenshot of a message on WhatsApp showing a photo of a stack of two books, the one on the top is titled, 𝘏𝘦𝘳𝘣𝘴 & 𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘴 and the other is 𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 by Alyson Noël, with the message: "I've been good, I only bought two books. Even the café volunteer was shocked. She was like, just two books??" A timestamp of 16:12 with two double check marks is on the bottom right hand corner and below it are two LOL emoji reactions.

I nearly bought 𝘉𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘛𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘴 by Anthony Trollope, but I put it back on the shelf after overhearing an elderly woman say to her husband, "I still have those other books; no need to get this for me."

A screenshot of a shipment for a magazine order showing the countries the order is being processed at.

I have this strange habit of tracking parcels of my international orders. Now I'm doing the same for the #PiaMOOK magazine after I got a WhatsApp message from DHL earlier this morning (which I first thought was spam and nearly deleted it 👀🤦🏻‍♀️).

Can't wait!😌💕

A screenshot of a partial WhatsApp chat: the words below the word, Yesterday - "Start something 50 days before my birthday or start on my birthday and finish 100 days from it, which is Valentine's Day?" a thinking emoji is included; an additional message follows with, "[crossed out] 100 days from your birthday is Sept 16th" with a happy emoji after it and a shocked emoji reaction; the reply message follows, "Ohh I like the starting on your birthday" with the same happy emoji included and the original message included within the reply and a happy emoji with hearts all over as the reaction.

The decision has been made with the help of my fellow romantic daughters.😍💕

come back again,
and again falls
this quiet, persistent rain."
