As a general update, wifey and I are still affected by whatever illness swept our local area. I'm generally drained, and my #Fibromyalgia pain is still higher than it should be, even on my meds. I'm managing some writing and a bit of drawing, though PC monitor size screens still hurt my head.

As I'm very out of the loop due to health, can any #LOTRO player tell me whether the upcoming Neighbours system is for all players or those that purchase the expansion? I might've missed it in the two blog posts I read, of course. Thanks. #LOTROfamily Crossposted with @openvibe.social

Well, I've managed a bit of time in #LOTRO. I struggled with reading the text because it's hard to concentrate in high pain, but the music was great to hear again. And I made a bit of Epic quest progress too. Very tired after just 1½hrs but it was worth it. #LOTROfamily @officiallotro.bsky.social

A halfling girl with long blonde hair stands in a grassy field with her arms crossed next to two small animals. The girl wears a green and gold tunic with white trim and brown boots. A white rabbit sits in a small wooden cart, and a small hedgehog is pulling that cart. The background includes tall green grass, red shrubs, trees, and distant blue mountains under a clear sky.

Alt draft by @altbot on Mastodon but I updated it manually for gender identity and to explain the hedgehog was, in fact, pulling the bunny in the cart. - FJ

There are many reasons this year has sucked. From a #LOTRO perspective, aside from having to stop blogging, I missed my 10th Anniversary Event and Midsummer. I'm just trying to ease in while in a lot of pain, playing my lowbie River Hobbit in Cardolan. #LOTROfamily @officiallotro.bsky.social

My blond, tanned-skinned LOTRO River Hobbit, in a red checked shirt and jeans, holding a xylophone in one arm. The background is rough grassy terrain, with rocky outcrops. As the skybox didn't load on my computer, the sky is pure black. It'll fix itself around dawn.

Health update: wifey pulled me back from a *very* #realmental health cliff-edge. I came off one meds experiment - I'm now on a different one. My #Fibromyalgia #pain is still unbearable, with short-lived reprieves. I'm not gaming much but doing writing, family time, housework & gentle phone games.

A screenshot from a video game shows a woman from behind, looking over a landscape with a pond and a small house. The woman wears a crown of white and purple flowers and a dark purple cloak decorated with large yellow flowers and white trim. She is dressed in a dark green patterned top with a white strap visible. In the background, a small blue pond is surrounded by green and yellow trees, near a cottage with a green roof and a round wooden door. A wooden fence borders a path scattered with small purple and white flowers.

Alt Created by @altbot on Mastodon. Edited by FJ for accuracy and because this character identifies as female.

Had just decided to get back into #LOTRO for the first time in ages and... I'd forgotten weekly Wednesday maintenance. Going for a walk now and hopefully I can get a little bit in on a newer character before NJ gets back and wants to play. @officiallotro.bsky.social #LOTROfamily

Hi Bluesky friends, LTNS. Bsky's letter limit makes this tricky to summarise. I've been off socials because wifey has been pulling me back from a mental cliff-edge. Things have been difficult for months, but we have a plan now. I am away from that "edge" but multiple factors are at work.

Fibro Jedi @fibrojedi.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

I've not posted here in ages, as one struggled to post even in one place with any consistency. Health is still up the creek, and I need to phase off a med I've been trying for the last month... Because I got most of the main side effects and none of the purported benefits. #Fibromyalgia

Hey again Bluesky folks, I hate to sound like a one-track playlist trapped on repeat and no power cut in sight...but the reality is that my #Fibromyalgia is sapping everything out of me pretty much. I'm managing family stuff, a bit of exercise and a bit of writing/drawing. But in a lot of pain 🔽

Fibro Jedi @fibrojedi.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

A random #drawing I did is Shiny Mawile from Pokémon (Go). I don't even have this one. But doing a drawing with simple shapes and lines, helped me focus on the experience, rather than "getting it right". #pokemon #PokemonGo #mawile

Hey folks, sorry for being silent on socials. My pain levels have been ridiculous, so I've been...and still am, in #SurvivalMode. I've managed a bit of writing and drawing recently, but I'm still barely making it to the PC for gaming. Just thought you deserved an update, at least.

It shows a simple, cartoon-style green bird. She is wearing a thin red headband, a black cloak attached at the breastbone. A loose, Jedi-esque, brown robe is completed with black boots. She is also holding a glowing white sword in one wing.

The background is deep blue blue and starry.

If I've missed posts or replies the last few days, it's a combination of low social capacity, low energy, not much PC time and...forgetting to sync #OpenVibe which merges my Mastodon & Bluesky feeds. 🤦‍♂️ Now I've fixed that, it's meds & sleep time. G'night / #StaySafe / #BeKind

Does anyone in the #LOTRO Community know how to exchange housing writs for Rivendell property? When the servers got merged, I downsized to just one Premium House, so I have excess writs. I have MC, but I'd prefer to offload my writs before MC. Thanks :) #LOTROfamily @lotrofamily.bsky.social

Hey folks, just dropping a casual update. My health is still sucky and it's been a challenge just doing housework and generally surviving. I've had to choose between doing a "thing" or gaming, and the "thing" has been more important recently. And trying to exercise a bit more. But I still exist.

Luthirenne prefers to be alone. She becomes terribly anxious around others, constantly worrying her venomous scales might accidentally hurt someone. But if you manage to pique her curiosity, you might make her forget her fears... even if it is just for a moment. #Art #AfterSilence #Fantasy #Dragon

A stylized portrait of a teal-and-cream dragon named Luthirenne posed in a semi-seated position against a muted purple background with a thin glowing rectangular frame. The dragon has smooth, dark teal scales with a pale cream underside and large wings folded partly open, showing soft beige membranes. A long, fin-like mane of translucent aqua frills flows from the head down the neck and tail, giving a watery, elegant appearance. Luthirenne wears delicate gold jewelry draped across the chest with small pink accents. The dragon’s expression is playful and slightly curious, with bright pink eyes and a small smile, one claw lifted near the mouth in a thoughtful gesture. The name 'Luthirenne' appears vertically along the left side, and the piece is labeled 'After Silence' and signed 'Hatwolf 2026.'

I've been too ill, in too high pain or unable to look at large screens for a while. But I finally made it to @officiallotro.bsky.social's Spring Festival. Love the goat pet and mount this year, and adding the Clegur area adds something a bit different too, in a good way I mean! #LOTRO #LOTROfamily

My main LOTRO character in the new checked daffodil dress (though I dyed it a different shade of purple). She's sat on a wooden jetty, next to a white goat kid that has a little goatee beard and side-tufts.

My main LOTRO character sat on the newest goat mount from Spring Festival. It is a saggy white goat, with a long eye-hiding fringe. Material is draped over its back in two-tone purples and several tassles are hanging down the sides from it. Towards the rear are faux daffodils to finish the piece.

The nose-trap is mostly a simple strap but in purple and decorated with tiny daffodils.

My main LOTRO Character facing away from the camera. She's wearing a short-sleeved green top, and a purple-backed cloak with large embroidered daffodils on it. The character herself has a circle of flowers around her head. The scene is a pond, with lush grasses of varying shades of green, sprouting daffodils and large patches of purple flowers too. A Hobbit-hole, which is actually the village butcher, is on the path below her.

I finished my first #Conqueror virtual challenge. My MIL bought it as a Christmas present, as I'm generally difficult to buy for. I've been trying to exercise more for about about year, but this #LOTR theme is an interesting way to go about it.

This shows a screenshot from the Conqueror app. It depicts a mountain shaped item with a Hobbit Hole door surrounded by trees.

At the top it says "The Lord of the Rings". Under that it says "Conqueror". At the bottom it says "The Shire"

I'm using a combination of a #Conqueror challenge and Pokémon Go as bribery to keep me walking. In the past, I couldn't quantify my exercise in the context of #Fibromyalgia management. I'm still walking less than 2 miles a day, but that's an improvement.
