Tell Me About Upcoming Events You Are Looking Forward To

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 26 Sep 22

With all this doom and gloom going on around the world I thought I would ask you all if there is something POSITIVE you are looking forward to. It could be your own (or in my case) someone else’s wedding. It could be a meal out -...

Life Is Such A Drag

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 12 Jul 22

I am sorry to post the above but I am sure there are others who feel the same way? On Facebook no-one takes any notice of me (which is why I hate it…should be called Fakebook as many people on there are so shallow it’s not funny)...

Rosie (The Cat) Is Pregnant!!

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 9 Mar 22

Last week I was at Mum's and she asked me if I thought Rosie was pregnant. "Not 'arf!" I thought. Instead, I said, "Well, it looks likely because she's a very strange shape..that definitely isn't fat!" Anyway, to cut a long...

Mum Has A New Cat Called Rosie!

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 13 Jan 22

Mum has had a tough time of it the last 6 years or so, what with my Dad and 3 cats dying on her. However, she does have a kind heart, so when she saw a rather scrawny (but beautiful) grey cat hiding in the bushes she had to feed...

Overdoing My Exercise

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 2 Mar 21

I'm an 'all or nothing' kinda gal. For the last few weeks exercise has been a no-no, using the cold weather as a (very poor) excuse not to go out. Last week was different as I was at Mum's, the weather was excellent so to stay...

More Lies

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 28 Feb 21

John has Fox News on. He must be desperate for something to watch if you ask me, especially since we live in the UK! Anyway, can you guess who is 'spouting off' as we say here? Yup, The Donald. Again. I really do wish he...

Does Having To Wear A Mask Stop You From Going Out?

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 12 Feb 21

Every day this week it's been cold. Sunny..but cold, so why do I stay in all the time? Well, the answer has to be this mask-wearing thing. My initial plan was to visit a store less than a mile away from here, on foot. Usually,...

Do You Think The Media Contradict Themselves Over Covid?

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 2 Feb 21

An example of this (both the BBC and Sky News are guilty parties) is the 'holiday' question. Now, usually, both these channels scaremonger regularly over the virus, getting various 'experts' on saying we should 'extend the...

Banning Comment Sections On Certain Websites

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 2 Feb 21

Two that spring to mind are Yahoo! News and Amazon. Yahoo! News has stopped people from commenting on ANY news item on their site. They conducted a little survey a while back, giving us multiple choice for our answers, and the...

How Energetic Are You Right Now?

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 2 Feb 21

Well, I had a bit of a 'spurt on' earlier, vacuuming...but it's kinda unfinished. Do you know what I mean? I start off well, then get bored with it and think, "Well, it looks alright to me, I think I'll go on the internet and...

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 2 Feb 21

...."What day is it?"?? He smiled and replied, "It's Tuesday!" I then said, "Five minutes ago I was fast asleep." "Yeh, yeh, right!" he said, before leaving the house for work. You see, all the days are the same to me. John...

Sunshine, Bleach and Disinfectant

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 24 Apr 20

Apparently, (according to President..really?) Trump the above can be used to KILL the most deadly virus to hit the world population for many years. Why is this man allowed to say such crap? By his own admission there are...

Coronavirus..Should We Be Worried?

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 2 Mar 20

I follow Steve Lookner on 'Agenda-Free TV' on YouTube so I often get to see his live broadcasts. At the moment he's a bit obsessed about Coronavirus but the way I see it..he's keeping the world informed, not just the US, so I...

Bottoms Of Feet Are Red A Lot Of The Time

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 27 Feb 20

I know what you are thinking - diabetes right? It seems likely as my late Dad had it and Mum currently has it but she varies her diet when she can so it is under control to a certain extent. I do take Sertraline for anxiety but...

Do You Ever Find Food Boring To Eat?

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 28 Jan 20

I do!! We tend to eat the same 7 meals every week. I do the cooking and John helps me with the washing-up..but it's not that I'm fed up with, it's the food itself. I realise that our tastebuds alter as we get older but - I...

Giggling Over Nothing

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 2 Sep 19

I ring Mum up 3 times a week. It's a way of catching up and - generally - to have a good laugh because we share a similar sense of humour..a bit daft. One example of this came a few nights ago during our usual chat and it all...
