It's so isolating and random and useless. This year I will be focusing much more on joining real life community groups where I can (and understand I am hugely privileged to have this as an option)08 Jan 2025 23:17 +0000at://did:plc:e3jj6i6hb4yiioo7pjwhooee/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfbcblzohc2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/tayaziz.bsky.social/post/3lfbbm64hhc2gI'd love to join more real life community groups this year, particularly ones focused around global majority groups in nature, hiking, gardening, swimming and similar. Can anyone recommend groups like this in Bristol?08 Jan 2025 23:05 +0000at://did:plc:e3jj6i6hb4yiioo7pjwhooee/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfbbm64hhc2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/tayaziz.bsky.social/post/3ldo43v6oq226Now that the cold and dark has rolled in, I've been really enjoying experimenting with all the dye flowers I grew this year 🏵 here are some prints on coreopsis and marigold dyed paper 🥭 Nothing says 'I love you' more than your mom handing over a plate of sliced fruit or a cup of chai 🍵19 Dec 2024 14:40 +0000at://did:plc:e3jj6i6hb4yiioo7pjwhooee/app.bsky.feed.post/3ldo43v6oq226https://bsky.app/profile/tayaziz.bsky.social/post/3ld2dpexmdc2cIt's amazing how you can learn to communicate with a loved one when they can't speak anymore, I understand every little eye movement and hand gesture and the specific way she twitches her eyebrows to ask: what day is it? How's everyone at home? What did you do today?11 Dec 2024 18:03 +0000at://did:plc:e3jj6i6hb4yiioo7pjwhooee/app.bsky.feed.post/3ld2dpexmdc2chttps://bsky.app/profile/tayaziz.bsky.social/post/3lcxl57yby22xMan I am so sick of these self-assessment reminder emails, I DON'T NEED ONE EVERYDAY10 Dec 2024 15:38 +0000at://did:plc:e3jj6i6hb4yiioo7pjwhooee/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcxl57yby22xhttps://bsky.app/profile/tayaziz.bsky.social/post/3lcniivq5x22lMy mum's illness recently has given me an appreciation of life that is so deep, I know it's cliche but have you ever thought about how you can sit yourself up in bed, go downstairs, make yourself breakfast and do things like put your shoes on? Never taking that for granted again ‼️06 Dec 2024 15:24 +0000at://did:plc:e3jj6i6hb4yiioo7pjwhooee/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcniivq5x22lhttps://bsky.app/profile/tayaziz.bsky.social/post/3lcm5htqdt22qThe real flex is a supportive community 🤝🏽🫂06 Dec 2024 02:34 +0000at://did:plc:e3jj6i6hb4yiioo7pjwhooee/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcm5htqdt22qhttps://bsky.app/profile/tayaziz.bsky.social/post/3lclev3alck2qAlso hoarding sauce packets and mini butter/margerine, canned food, rice, flour, reusing tin foil, saving wrapping paper, wearing my shoes till they fall apart...

But she is a FIGHTER and she's awake and breathing on her own for the first time in weeks 🥹🥹🤍05 Dec 2024 18:16 +0000at://did:plc:e3jj6i6hb4yiioo7pjwhooee/app.bsky.feed.post/3lclbncjbjk2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/tayaziz.bsky.social/post/3lcd7afwwjc2wMy mum has been ill after a stroke last month, and we've been told we only have a few more days with her. I feel lucky that we get to say goodbye because I know not everyone has that, but it's still so hard and painful. I'm especially thinking of all the children in Gaza who have lost their mums 💔02 Dec 2024 13:12 +0000at://did:plc:e3jj6i6hb4yiioo7pjwhooee/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcd7afwwjc2whttps://bsky.app/profile/tayaziz.bsky.social/post/3lbu735jk3k2bLaser cutting some of our @wecanmake.bsky.social mini retrofit kits 🏡🪑📚 Loading: a mini chair, sharing library, hedgehog house and table.
