I haven’t written one of these for a while, have I? Truth be known, events of last year took their toll on me emotionally (if you don’t know, sepsis in November and the prospect of another foot op this year) and my confidence has nose-dived, I’m not an over-sharer anyway, I’d rather stay silent, feeling […]
Regular readers of my blogs might remember that I mentioned I’d be obtaining baseline blood tests via Forth, something of interest to me as I knew that the last few years have taken their toll on my wellbeing. The baseline test comprises of: “Our Baseline subscription package is designed to help you to track vital health […]

One advantage of being a blondie is that any (unwanted) hairs don’t show up as quickly as they may for people with darker hair, but a disadvantage is that some hairs might not show up at all! I’m talking about eyebrows, which can really frame your frame and make such a difference to wellbeing and […]
Let me take you back a few years…. Just over three. It was a revoltingly wet and windy January day and Hubbie and I were putting up a trampoline in our garden. Quite why we didn’t wait until the weather was better, I can’t remember but anyway.. Trampolines are quite easy to assemble aren’t they, […]
It’s been another relaxed day here, so I’m going to go off track a bit and update on my wellbeing – something a bit overdue. Those who’ve read my posts for a while, will remember that towards the end of 2014 I was feeling very down and exhausted. The last few years of school battles, […]
Oh, I have had a long relationship with all things chocolate. Yum yum. It probably (most definitely) started in childhood. My parents went through a bitter divorce when I was 9 and we were “rewarded” for good behaviour not with praise, but a choccy treat. It was therefore very easy to associate the feeling of […]
I’m a crier, always have been. Being a SN parent you can sometimes get overcome by emotions: the meetings, endless meetings when your child is treated as a budget figure and not an individual; the appointments and all the admin, chasing things up, getting a prescription before meds run out and forms, all the forms.

My wellbeing always takes a nosedive during the school holidays, we’ve had half term this week. It’s a time when obviously the children’s needs come first and throw autism into the mix and it can feel a case of needing eyes and ears everywhere to divert any potential upset. All along I’ve told myself that […]
