Months ago I decided no more social media it’s bad for Isabelle and you’ll feel much better if you stop it! I do not feel much better and my family are getting well fed up of my ramblings 😂 I can’t close them down though …

That confounded tortoise who was asleep for the last 4 months behind the TV got up yesterday, stomped into the kitchen, ate an entire lettuce and escaped out into the garden this evening 🙄 see you in 6 months Dandelion

I’m sitting drinking tea in Belfast having seen a surgeon yesterday evening who will attempt to fix my botched knee! His only question was why did they not go back in and fix it 😱 it’s not raining either!

The Irish private health sector is a cartel I’m sure of it now! One surgery went wrong and I cannot get anyone to fix it 😡 just get on with it it’ll get better 🙄 having broken my wrist last year and gone through the public system I know they’re painfully slow but they are very thorough! Rant over

The very worst thing about teenagers having phones is that they can continue to whinge at you despite not being in the house 😩

Imagine 5 years ago everything changed so fast and society has never recovered imo. People have changed so much, my husband alone never returned to the office that has long lasting effects. Will we ever recover?

I spoke to a person today and it gave me great pleasure to listen, take all her concerns and crush them into waste! She left me smiling and saying thank you so much no one has ever listened and told me you’re totally right and it’ll be fine just keep going you’re doing a brilliant job

I watched Small Things Like These last night and it was brilliant! I worked in that premises not long after the nuns moved out and people would visit to try face their demons 😞 I’ll never forget their terror as they couldn’t step into a room, it was too much for them and they told me of their horror
