Everyone has six good books all on the go at the same time, yeah? It’s like mood food or choosing what clothes to wear each day… What does your #bedside table #book stack look like? #Bedsidereading #Books #Bedtime

Looking after the #individuals is the ONLY way to build a truly thriving #workforce Now more than ever we must attend to basics, and treat people in the #NHS landscape as the valuable, talented, generous and extraordinary humans that they are. How can we help? www.welcomebacktowork.co.uk

How it started… tears of frustration that a bloody overnight onset #migraine didn’t clear enough for me to start Day 3 of the bike ride 😩 so I had to ride in the bus for the first 30Km until my brain worked again. How it finished… a fresh coconut juice after the 55Km I then DID manage to cycle 😁

I’m going on A Big Adventure! I fly on Friday 😳 #Cycling >350Km in 5 days across #Cuba to raise ££ for #breastcancerresearch. It’ll be hot, sweaty and hilly - unlike my training in cold, wet and windy England!! Every ££ will go to the research - thank you ☺️ 🙏 www.justgiving.com/page/lucy-si...

Here are some of the unexpectedly vibrant colours we encountered last week - when spending Christmas in the hills of Catalunya. The sky was so blue, the kitchen windowsill view almost meditative, the flowers a delight and reflections so tranquil. Hope you’re okay. Go gently. Be kind to yourself.

Please remember it relies on its #staff being there and being mentally well in order to provide #care to #patients. They need your help so they can be there for you, and help you when you’re in need 🙏 ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Old enough I’ve had mine for years! Stairs did feel very odd and unsafe for a day or two, but eyes quickly adapted and I’ve completely given up contact lenses now I’ve got varifocal specs. I wear them continuously through my waking hours (unless reading in bed which I can do without glasses).

Thank you. It honestly makes me smile from ear to ear every time I paint one! I just get lost in the mindful flow of creating something that by definition cannot be right or wrong… but just ‘IS’ 😊 Going to try selling them locally at a craft fair to boost my charity fundraising efforts too 😊
