Do you consider yourself disabled?
That is what I saw on a form I was filling out. Do I? I mean technically I am but to I consider myself disabled? Oh, meet me in the street and you will see nothing. In fact you will probably notice nothing. I don't blame anyone for not. I do not have a neon… Continue reading Do you consider yourself disabled?
Dieticians and Wizardry…
Went to the dietician... I sit down and she shows me a plate. "Do you eat like this?" I look down and in shock I nod. I really do. "Are your plates big?" Bit of a personal question but I assure her that they are the same size as you would expect. She then moves… Continue reading Dieticians and Wizardry…

The I noticed the time. A quick bite to eat and I was down the gym. Now I ought to… Continue reading What a depressing day…
I think I’ve got out of bed on the wrong side…
And that is really difficult as my bed is pushed against a wall. I don't know... Everything feels a little off. The good news though is that the drawing is not overworked (I had my suspicions last night). At least I don't think so. And it is looking good. I have to get some more… Continue reading I think I’ve got out of bed on the wrong side…
To teach?
I've been offered the opportunity to apply for teaching... Should I? It will be teaching adults. Probably art and creative writing. It is tempting... I think I'll apply and see where it takes me.
