I have a special gadget for opening jars that my late Mum bought for me when I was first diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, it has been a real game changer because I live on my own and family are too far away to help with things like that ๐Ÿ˜Š

I tried opening a ring pull can of tomato paste the other day and the stupid ring came off ~ a lot of bad words were said ๐Ÿ˜‚

I have never understood why my arthritis meds come in containers with childproof lids. I also spit the dummy when trying to get that stupid piece of foil off the milk bottles, I try to always get my milk from Aldi because they don't have that stupid foil bit ๐Ÿ˜‚

It's nice to see you Bridie ๐Ÿ˜Š I wish you all the very best for a great outcome to the treatments.

Guess if you don't give a shit about seeing kids/their families dead from bombs, being shot, smothered under rubble, burning alive in tentsโ€”remains being collected in plastic bagsโ€”10s of 1000s of Aussies marching in protest won't move you either, right @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social?

I just caught a snippet of the ABC News and I literally was moved to tears by the sheer number of people on the Bridge, my faith in humanity is slightly restored โ˜ฎ๏ธ If only our politicians would show some backbone ... #MarchForHumanity #EndGenocide #FreePalestine #Auspol

Yep, I have never been able to understand why the heck they write the date the way they do, who thought it was a great idea to put the month before the day? ๐Ÿค”
