Yesterday was such an eventful day that my post is a wee bit delayed. Usually I write a bit at the end of the day as well so that I do not have to try and remember what I did, but this week I did not do that so I hope I do not mix …

Word of the Week
I often do a 'music video of the week' or a 'film/series of the week' recommendation in my posts, but I think I might need to add a 'Word of the Week' section because I am getting so many comments by people who identify with my latest explorations into various aspects of Neurodiversity. This week's …
Nurturing Touch & Sound
Do you ever have one of those days that just feels blissfully perfect from start to end? I did last Saturday. First of all the weather was clear so I could pray to the 7 Directions outside on my hill when I woke up. Then I attended our women's group from 9:00 until 12:30 and …
Showing up Authentically
This week I have learned some new terminology for some of the same old 'quirks'. I keep discovering that the weird little behaviours I have always done are either stims, or characteristics of either Autism or ADHD. For example, constantly singing is a ND trait. I sing continuously either in my head or out loud. …
Desperately Seeking Something
There are so many trite sayings about how wonderful it is to spend time with your grown up children but they are all true. Even doing nothing is fine if I am doing nothing with my kids. When I see them happy and doing well at life it especially makes me feel pleased. My daughter …
Hurray for Hollywood
On Saturday Norm and I attended the matinee production of 'Hollywood'. I love the venue Theatre on the Bay and often just book tickets on a whim which is what I did with this show. I knew nothing about the show and when we arrived we were baffled by the fact that there were young …
Bucket List
Friends know that I am frog-o-phobic and we have a horrendous situation going on at the moment. We have a toad somewhere in the house. How do we know? Toad poop. If you know toad poop, then you are never mistaken about the origin of that poop. It has no sphincter marks like normal poop …
A Little Shift to the Left
You know when you were a kid and you were on holiday and you had that 'summer feeling' where your skin felt salty and tight from chlorine or sea water? Sitting with damp swimsuits on the chair cushions and knowing you will regret it later after you have changed and you get your new clothes …
Manifest your Requirements
On Monday the contractor came to do a final measurement of the windows and doors that are going to be replaced. I am so excited that it is finally coming to be. Major manifestation in progress! Over the weekend I saw a family of Guinea fowl walking along our street. They never come into our …
Used to be Young
I was so happy to be able to fly to George to see Lily, Trevor, Josh and Amelia. Josh's mom Jackie is home at the moment and it was lovely to get to spend time with her too. We are very similar in so many ways. Josh and Lily picked me up from the airport …
