    New Shoes

    Today was the first time I’d ever had a Greggs. It was also the first time that what mattered more than the problem was the solution. This is a VERY important day indeed.

  • Getting Better

    Getting Better

    It is important to note that I have stopped hoping someone will notice my work. It’s not that I no longer care about critical acclaim or professional progress, rather that I know now, for an absolute certainty, that this shit was never in my hands to begin with. I can put myself out there and…

  • Endless Art

    Endless Art

    The artwork is doing an important job. It is allowing me to release unexpected mental pressure. That means despite deciding I would stop drawing, tonight it’s continued to leech out of me. Tomorrow I need to tidy and organize to get back to some kind of normality, and to fit that drawing into the process.…

  • Run for Home

    Run for Home

    I appear to be doing blogs in pairs right now, mostly because they’re being fitted in between other tasks. That meant recording a podcast today, which on reflection should have been done on Monday. It’ll get programmed that way for next week. Today was also when I did my first 10 km for quite some time,…

    Having said everything yesterday, however, change is occurring. Nothing ever evolves by empty words and blogs, now, does it…

  • A Change is Gonna Come

    A Change is Gonna Come

    May was always going to be important for me. There is a LOT changing in my life, new skills and ideas coming to the fore, and this will be the month when that INFJ-T in my Twitter profile also comes into its own. Everyone has something they need to do away from their normal plans…

    White Knight

    I should have been referred today for an Adult ASD diagnosis. The doctor has all the paperwork, I’ve provided a personal referral statement. As he refused to see me in person, I have no idea of his veracity at this point. We’ll see how it goes, but I have done all that could be done,…

  • And So It Goes

    And So It Goes

    I’m going on holiday tomorrow: not anywhere away from here, but pretending not to work for two weeks. It will be a break, however, which is the more important point. Today, something happened that is worth remembering from a personal PoV. There’s a surprising amount of context that goes with it. In my life, I’ve…

  • Regeneration

    Regeneration

    For the longest time, all I’ve ever really wanted to do is throw everything away and start again. The practicalities of this have always eluded me, but now it’s become an actual reality, and as existence begins to warp its way around me and the new world forms, this is a better place for so…

  • Respect

    Respect

    Truth, let’s be honest, is often very hard to come by in the modern world. If I believe the Government over half the things they tell me, I’d be doubting myself on an almost daily basis. Being told that we have to live with Covid is, however, probably a realistic take on the next ten…
