This is your yearly reminder of this brilliant twitter thread that i live my life by. It's currently silly season with three kids and 'end of year' events at school - AND it's a super busy time at work. Keeping my eye on the glass balls - the plastic balls will have to wait.
Jennifer Lynn Barnes@jenlynnbarnes23 Jan 2020
One time, I was at a Q&A with Nora Roberts, and someone asked her how to balance writing and kids, and she said that the key to juggling is to know that some of the balls you have in the air are made of plastic & some are made of glass.

Maps where you’d rather not be the red country- WHO data shows the UK has high premature mortality, especially in CVD. Hanne Christensen flags that where countries spend more money on stroke care, they have better outcomes - and that advocacy for stroke is key. #ESOC2025
