I slept like a baby last night. Really peaceful and for hours and hours. Tired from the chemo but this is positive. Rest day today and time to shave my head. I'll post before/after I think. Thank you for the continued messages of support, it's really does make a difference. 🙏🙏 #cansky

Hello @chazelgrovemp.bsky.social Who manages this account because I see regular posting from it in terms of positive PR but I don't see any engagement with real humans. My responses have been ignored twice so I'm questioning if it's a legitimate communication tool for Claire or just a piece of PR?

Thanks so much for the lovely good wishes that came my way yesterday. It was a very long day with ups & downs. The good news is I was fit to take a full dose of chemo drugs. The less fun part was ending up in the emergency room later on. Got home to bed about 2am so pretty tired! We made it though!

Ok big girl pants time this morning. I'm off shortly for my first round of new chemo. Feeling a bit sick from anxiety but generally good. I have my boxset and game recommendations to keep me busy so thank you people! See you on the other side. #cansky

Time to try and get some sleep. Up early tomorrow and the car has to be dropped for its MOT and service before my clinic appointment. Who will come out of the service better, the car, or me? 🤣

If this is true, it's the end of my Audible subscription. Why the hell would I pay for a non-human to 'perform' art? The beauty is in the tone, the crack in the voice, the simple act of passing a tale from one human to another orally, as we've done for centuries. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/m...

The conquering hero returns from school with his first exam paper done and he seems reasonably happy. Answered all the questions and didn't stress out so yay! I'm very proud and feeling very grateful to be here for this moment. When I got my dx we didn't think I would be. 🥰🙏 #cansky

Some nice news to cheer me up before the big day tomorrow. The amazing chair we bought for our living room, expected in August, is being delivered next week 😁 This is excellent news as not only is it pretty, it reclines! It'll be me, my book and some light snoring!

My 15 year old really wanted to learn to cook a 'full English'. With my guidance he did that for brunch today and I'm so proud of him for providing a really tasty meal for the 3 of us, the old fashioned way. No air fryer or other gadgets were allowed as he needs practice for camping.

Hello from Stinky! #caturday
A tortoiseshell cat with white paws and a white bib sits on her hind quarters underneath a potted palm tree in front of a skylight window. The light is bright and through the window blue sky and white clouds are visible. The plant is throwing some frond shaped patterns on the floor as shadow. Both cat and plant are sitting on warm brown wooden floors and the line of an item of furniture is just visible at the front of the image. The furniture is a mix of colours with the most prominent being purple.

Well I've loved season 12 of #MAFSAU and have really enjoyed the odd chat here and there with others watching along. Till next season, my MAFS buddies! 🫡

Ep40:- Yes Jeff and Rhi! The cuteness is awesome and what a great story. #MAFSAU

Ep40:- Even with all the evidence in front of him, Paul doesn't get it. He's consistently treated Carina badly and the proof is right there. Look around the room dude, look at the faces! Come on John, give it to him!! #MAFSAU

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 08/05/2025
Ep40:- Oh shut up Paul. Literally nobody believes you. Cannot believe he's calling Carina vain and inauthentic. Look at the state of it! Put your hairy chest away medallion man, stop hamming up the French accent and never, no never come up against Alessandra! #MAFSAU

Ep40- I've never seen anything like the Jacqui and Ryan show. That was incredible and the group reaction was fantastic. She is completely bonkers and I'm only disappointed that we didn't see her suddenly switch her emotions at Beth and Teejay's wedding, which was frankly a bit scary. #MAFSAU

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 08/05/2025
Ep40:- The Jacqui who cried wolf has got her manipulation mouth on. I mean, Ryan is an idiot and can be really disrespectful to women, but next to Jacqui he looks like Prince charming. Please please show her lying at Beth and Teejay's wedding! #MAFSAU

Ep40:- Jamie and Dave make me so sad. They were so great together for so long. Such a shame it didn't work out for them. Poor Awhina watching Adrian's date. I've still no idea about Sierrah's BS. What, she wanted Adrian so vilified Awhina? Great girl code there love. And what a prize! #MAFSAU

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 08/05/2025
Ep40: The final CC! Let's see those receipts baby! Starting with a look back at the wedding days when they were all so full of hope was actually quite lovely. Right, now that's out of the way... #MAFSAU

#MAFSAU Ep:39- Paul is such an infant. Digging in on Carina being judgemental and trying to make her look bad. Once again Jeff bang on with his comments about it not going Paul's way and him being embarrassed. Poor Paul's fragile baby masculinity. As for Adrian being 'dumb'...

Ep:39- I love how Jacqui wants to rub Ryan's nose in how perfect she and Clint are but one look at Rhi and Jeff makes a mockery of them. Real shame about Jamie and Dave. Lovely to see the women supporting each other though. #MAFSAU

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 08/05/2025
Ep:39- I don't get the whole thing with Sierrah and wonder if a lot of stuff happened off screen. Now she just seems like a bitter woman who didn't get her requisite amount of limelight so is out to ruin everyone else's night. Seriously, what did I miss? #MAFSAU

Ok I need boxsets! #Boxsets right in the vision goggles! I start a new kind of #chemo next week and anticipate the need for a strong distraction game. What you got for me good people? Old, new, UK, US all good. The only thing I'm not really a fan of is gory horror. 🙏 #cansky

Yay! I'm getting a blood transfusion before the weekend! I might actually be able to stand up or... I don't know...stay awake!! This is so great as I feel so awful. There are also things I wanted to get done before starting the new regime and I may actually have a chance to do that now. #cansky

We've got the Gardner in for his first visit since we moved in. It's a noisy process out there but at least we won't look like the hobos on the street now. We have a couple of trees, some well established tall bushes, and a bit of grass out front that now looks a lot tidier!

Ep38 Final vows: Well done Ryan. Short and pretty respectful. Jacquie straight in there with a nasty tone. Interesting that most of the accusations she's throwing are reflective of her own behaviours. I genuinely believe the woman needs some psychological help. 'Be gone you horrible woman' 😂 #MAFSAU

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 07/05/2025
Ep38 Final vows: oh Ryan, you poor, poor man. How did you get to this point? Jacqui has such a nasty look on her face. #MAFSAU

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 07/05/2025
Ep38 Final vows: Well Jeff and Rhi were seriously cute and pleasingly, as expected. It's lovely when a couple works and great they were able to move their friendship into something beautiful. Good luck to them (yes, I'm still holding off googling everyone to see what happened after). #MAFSAU

Ep38 Final vows: Carina with the big "however"! Come on girl! Didn't see that coming did you Mr Big?! Poor Carina, but so glad she finally respected herself and her values first. #MAFSAU

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 07/05/2025
Ep38 Final vows: I cannot believe that Paul is still attributing blame to Carina in his vows - 'you apologised' for my massive insensitivity when I threw you under the bus. Kick him in the nuts Carina!! #MAFSAU

S12Ep37: *contains spoilers* Very happy for Jamie and Dave. They may not last forever but you never know! WTF Awhina and Adrian?! 😂 Did not see that coming! Silly girl though, he doesn't want to be a father to your child and that's fundamental. Well, good luck to them I guess. #MAFSAU

I wish the people who make movies and TV would realise that just because it's dark, doesn't mean you can't fill with *some* light. Currently watch S6E1 of #thehandmaidstale and can barely see anything during the train night scene. Maybe it's meant to add to the drama but I just find it annoying.

Had a wonderful visit from some of my most favourite people today. I was exhausted afterwards but the psychological boost was seriously worth the effort. 🥰

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 04/05/2025
The political discourse a couple of days in is precisely as expected. Christ, it's boring, listening to these same arguments again and again. We know what the problems are but nothing short of fundamental change gets us there. I'm going to back to my highly medicated state. Laters...

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 04/05/2025
In my weird medicated state last night I seemed to have downloaded some self help books by someone called Mel Robbins. I'm sure they're great but err, no thank you.

So the nuclear option worked... In the middle of the night I launched myself downstairs like a pancake out of a cannon and went splat on the bottom wall. Fortunately no damage found. I then ate half a packet of Jaffa cakes, failed to find an audiobook so gave up and went back to bed till 14:00!

Emma @serem80.bsky.social · 03/05/2025
It's going to have to be the nuclear option this evening. Last night I woke at 1:30, snoozed till 3:30 and was then awake for the rest of the night. I feel like I'm starting to lose my mind with lack of sleep so it's time to break out the serious sleeping pills.
