I haven't posted in so long, but I have to type this because I need to *say* it even if it's saying it into the great abyss. I think I have found a small lump accompanied by a persistent rash, and I'm terrified to make a doctor appointment because what if I'm right?

3 days of no heat and hot water in our block. Seen 1 workman in 3 days. He was on his phone saying "nah mate we're running out of ideas to get it working" :/

I watched celebrity bear hunt and kind of sort of enjoyed it. BUT I feel like Bear Grylles shouldn't know where the tools and exits are because, really, he's not "hunting" them it's just Bear finding people exactly where he knows they'll be.

Please remember to take care of yourself. Take your medication, drink water, eat as well as you can. Sleep if you're able to. Find things that make you laugh, because you have to especially when it all feels like shit.

I'm not American, I'm 3677 miles away from Washington DC, and I can no longer sleep at night. I feel so much for every American who didn't vote for this.

Every winter my psoriasis, which usually keeps to my arms and scalp, tries hard to form a psoriasis beard, (on my face, obviously). I thought I'd got away with no beard this winter :/ but it is TRYING and perhaps winning

I kind of quit blue-sky because I felt like I was posting into a void, but I'm back to tell you that Lidl has some extremely good vegan biscuits right now especially the little vanilla ones. Would recommend. #vegan

All I plan to do today is drink coffee and play dreamlight valley.

I know what I'm getting for Christmas because I bought and wrapped it, and I can't wait to be surprised when I open it tomorrow.

I'm cooking myself a no-turkey crown tomorrow for the first time, and I'm nervous.

Something I love about Christmas is making up a cosy bed on the living room floor for family staying over. They're like, "I'll sleep on the (small) sofa," and I'm like "no no let me make the most cosy floor nest." Then 5 minutes later, they're fast asleep in the floor nest bed.

I've never really loved Christmas pudding but have always eaten it because it's what you eat on Christmas day. This year, I've bought myself a whole apple pie.

Our Christmas Dinner is peeled, chopped, and some is cooked and frozen, ready to reheat tomorrow. It's also my birthday tomorrow, so thankfully, I won't need to be in the kitchen ALL day.

My grocery delivery is coming early tomorrow morning. Most weeks, 5 or 6 important things are missing, how many *Christmas essentials* will be missing tomorrow? I'm hoping none, but I'm expecting to be out doing last-minute food shopping.

The Christmas ground coffee from waitrose is so SO good. I bought two packs today, and I already want to buy more so I can drink it after the Christmas season

A jasmine candle for Hestia, a mini simmer pot for good fortune, a blue sage incense (my new favourite) and a pot of coffee. I love my morning rituals.

My coffee percolator comes tomorrow, I was going to wait until my birthday, but tbh I'm gonna use it tomorrow. I'm so excited it's like I don't already drink coffee all day long.

I was out with my dog just now. She hates going out because she's elderly and has better things to do, such as napping, so when we GO out I allow her to sniff EVERYTHING and lead me wherever she wants to go so she, hopefully, enjoys it a bit....

I feel like if you see something that is intended to be cute, funny, entertaining such as cat accounts, but you don't personally enjoy them, just don't engage. Mute or block and let others carry on enjoying things.

Willow is Blooming @willowblooming.bsky.social · 16/12/2024
I must admit I didn't enjoy "cat spelling" at first, but then I began to see the humour and joy in it, and now I actively seek cat accounts to follow because we all need more humour and joy in our lives.

Also, my boys don't believe me that people have mashed people as well as roast potatoes with a roast dinner. They said if its true, it must be a "new thing." it is a thing, isn't it? And not a new thing?

Willow is Blooming @willowblooming.bsky.social · 16/12/2024
I know you CAN make your roast potatoes in advance, freeze, and reheat them, but ARE THEY AS GOOD? Because I'm thinking I might do it this year, (time and oven space) but I don't want to ruin the best part of Christmas dinner.

It's my birthday in 10 days and I've ordered myself something I've always wanted. A good old fashioned coffee percolator. No fancy schmancy pods just good filtered coffee. I can't wait.

My cat decided years ago that he, too, deserves a treat every time my dog returns from a walk. He's always waiting at the treat cupboard when we get back. He gets one because I admire his audacity.

I'm watching S.W.A.T and enjoying it very much, but why does the intro remind me of naff 80's cop shows?

A white candle, for peace and purification, and because I always have a candle burning to honour Hestia and welcome her into my home and a blue sage incense. Many blessings, may you have a peaceful week.
A white, lit, candle and a burning incense stick.

My Christmas shopping expedition to Oxford street was EXHAUSTING. Far to many people for my liking.

I lost my favourite but small polished rose quartz last week, to replace it with an almost identical one would have cost me £7 in the crystal shop but I got this big chunk for £4 which is a good price for the shop on Oxford Street and I absolutely love it.

We’re cancelling the guilty part of guilty pleasures. Wanna read romance books and drink cheap wine? Valid. Watch the trashiest reality show and scroll through Amazon? I support this. Listen to the same early 2000s pop song a thousand times in a row? Why stop there? Find that joy and SQUEEZE.

When I was too poorly to eat I had a dream about a vegan kit kat. When I got home tonight my mum had bought me one. She didn't know I'd dreamt about one.

Does anyone have an actual good recipe for vegan leek and potato soup because the one on the good food website tastes of sludge and sadness. #vegan

Well, my homemade soup looked quite nice. It tasted of NOTHINGNESS though.

I've ordered myself a week's worth of soup ingredients, coming tomorrow, and now I'm not even convinced I like soup that much.

Tomorrow is my sons birthday. He was born blue two weeks early. Now, he's a wonderful, fully grown guy who still keeps me on my toes every day, and I'm just so glad he exists.

Tomorrow, as is my tradition, I am making my trial run Christmas roast potatoes. I make them all year round, and yet I feel the need for this special training session.

I'm usually able to put on a smile and keep going through all the things life brings me, but honestly, right now, I just want to feel well, and it's hard not to be miserable and sad.

I managed 1 small meal today. I'm empty, exhausted, and really hungry. Food doesn't appeal, though. How long will it take to recover from this tummy bug?

My elderly dog has been "unable" to get up on the sofa without help for a couple of years. Until my daughter was just eating a pizza on the sofa and not sharing. Either it's a miracle or my dog is a scammer because she jumped on up like a young pup.

I'm asking this as a very happy long time vegan who just craves a cheese and bean toastie. Is there a vegan cheese (UK) that doesn't taste like sweaty balls, dogs arse or vomit? Cheese is the ONLY thing I can't find a good alternative for, and I want a toastie so bad right now. #vegan
