For all of my moaning about slow operation recovery, tiny bits of TV plot I can’t figure out, and why do my kids never push their dining chairs in, this dog thinks I’m the best.

I really like Doctor Who again. And I become obsessed with bands now and then - always with Green Day, but currently adding The Darkness and Muse new releases heavily to the playlist (I vow to keep this bit updated).
(I am reliably informed that I’m not consistent at pushing my own dining chair back in)

When you lose a sock in the dryer, it gets reincarnated as a tupperware lid that doesn't fit anything.
Attention Sydney: Bunnings Alexandria today features an old friend doing the sausage sizzle to raise money for her 8 day cycle ride next March from Coffs to Noosa.
Give generously, eat sausages, get that tap washer you’ve been meaning to pick up for months, and #FuckCancer all at the same time!

Hey @atlantisblauw I hope it went well for you.

We asked these Trump supporters what they thought of Donald Trump calling Neo-Nazis “very fine people.” Trump just had dinner with a Neo-Nazi.

Changing the lives of Senegalese people disabled by clubfoot https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-63649893
No idea if this link works or not, but… my youngest son was born with a #Clubfoot and it was fixed with the Ponseti method as described in this article. So cheap and simple to fix, there really is no excuse for children to suffer with clubfoot in any part of the world. Good to see some publicity on this topic.
Week 2 at home starts today.
3 weeks ago due to end-stage #achalasia I had my oesophagus removed and my stomach stretched up through my chest and stitched to my throat. I now have big scars on my neck, abdomen and back.
I still have over 2 months of recovery before returning to work and some days I worry if I’ll make it, while other days I wonder what I’ll do to keep busy.
I will make it, of course. And recovery will keep me busy.
Major surgery hurts, by the way. A lot.
But at least I can eat.

This last couple of weeks has been a bit mad. Due to severe symptoms of #achalasia I went into hospital to have my oesophagus removed and my stomach replumbed directly into my throat and stretched out alongside my lung to fill the space a little.
During this time, I’ve joined this place, merrily watched the old place go loco, and today I successfully ate solid food for the first time in quite a while.
This fortnight gets 4 stars. 1 star forfeited because, for a day or two there, it really bloody hurt.

#introduction remember when the other place was about watching MasterChef and saying “ooh I like that sauce” or “white chocolate veloute?” and others would say “ha me too, nice”?
I liked those times.
I have advanced Achalasia and l found people around the world with the same rare disease. That was cool too.
I also met my mortgage broker through a random chat about “round the twist” or some such and have saved $’000s because of her.
That’s it, really.
