Hide and Seeking with things
Did you ever play hide and seek when you were a child? I used to like it very much and played it quite a bit when with friends.
Kevin’s birthday
Well today is his birthday and it has been a great day. To see him develop and change through the years we have been together has been extraordinary.
Medication and wheelchairs
Anyone who has a chronic condition tends to be on medication and/or using a form of walking aid - moving from sticks, to crutches.
Effects of a seizure
I wasn’t quite sure what to call this, to be honest with you. First, I want to start with thoughts about my seizure and afterwards and the long term effects you probably have no idea of, if you haven’t faced it or learned about it.
Cooking Shows
Do you ever watch cooking shows? I love watching them, but the thing I enjoy the most is when it’s a competition and the contestants help each other when they are stuck.
The Olympics
Yes, I know I don’t often talk about them, but actually, I do enjoy watching some of the events. Anything with horses, gymnastics in all its forms, and ice skating.
Our hearts and our hands together forever
When we are at the marriage, looking at a couple, you will notice that the officiant of the ceremony asks them to hold hands while they are saying their vows. The importance is that you do not make a vow without some form of recognition of the vow.
What makes you smile?
Well actually the joy of knowing that over 3k of people are reading what I an writing. That is o precious, I have the fact you are doing so.
Cutting nails on a child on the spectrum
Well, you would never (or might) I don’t know, but cutting nails is TORTURE to a child that has sensory issues.
One Year! My goodness!
Yesterday we reached the FIRST BIRTHDAY of the new look website! AND to top it all, we have had 3.,400 people see it.
Care Plans
Care plans are for those who are disabled and the people that care for them. I have been with the same Carer’s Centre for 8-9 years, I think.
Anika’s Pick of the Week
I’d like to draw your attention to the posters that we;re making for you to either use yourself or for someone else.
Music and Poetry
Now I know I have spoken about music and poetry before. If you wish to go back and see them, you are more than welcome to do so.
Someone singing
Do you ever hear people singing? I know that if you like that kind of music that it will bring a smile to your face, even if you have a tear in your eye at the same time.
Sentient Chair
My son introduced me to the idea of a sentient chair. He wanted me to write about one/them. To me, it seemed so unreal to me that I would be like Enid Blyton or the lady who wrote “The Phoenix and the Carpet.”
Our animals
After meeting Kevin and his house cats, I asked the vet how to help them get along. The vet recommended keeping two cats in the room at night and one by day.
New Floor Is Down
Oh my goodness! We had a really manky carpet in the hallway - pale lilac and grubby as you like. I had been saying I would change the carpet soon…….what’s soon anyway?
