Christmas. It brings thousands of people joy and excitement every year. But for a lot of Autistic people, the most wonderful time of the year can be extremely difficult. From the Christmas decorations, smells, presents, bright lights, the busy gatherings and the change in routine.. it’s overwhelming! I have a love/hate relationship with Christmas. It […]
Dearest Reader, It’s been a while since I last posted anything on my blog. The last few weeks, I haven’t been in a great place with my Mental Health. Lots of things triggered my anxiety and made me feel very down. I’m feeling so much better than I did, but I’m still […]
If you read my blogs, you will know I’m not a huge fan of change! I’ve talked about the staff room furniture moving around (which makes me grit my teeth just thinking about it 😂) and my special seat… Now, I want to talk about pump eight. * It was a sweltering summers evening as […]
I knew I was different from a very young age. I knew I saw the world differently. Why did certain noises upset me but not others? Why was it challenging to make friends? Why did I hate and get overwhelmed by the feel of jeans against my skin? Even though I was diagnosed with Autism […]

Dearest Reader, I’m currently sat in the garden writing to you. The sun is scorching, the bee’s are buzzing and for the first time in a while I’ve managed to find the time to sit down and actually write a blog post! A lot has happened since I last spoke to you. I ate a […]
Happy New Year! 😊 🎉 I hope you had an amazing time wheather you went out or stayed in celebrating. I’m not sure where 2017 went, I did so much in that year from passing my driving test, getting a car, turning 21… I can’t believe it’s over!! I’ve made a few goals for this year, some new […]
Hello everyone! Long time no see (or in this case long time no read!😂) Hope you’ve all had a wonderful Christmas! Mine was crazy but amazing. So much has happened in the last couple of weeks, so I thought I would tell you what I’ve been up to! 😊 If we were having coffee, I […]
Hello everyone, hope your doing well! I’ve read a LOT of these posts recently in the bloggersphere and thought I’d join in as it not only looks like fun, but would be a great way to sit down once a month and have a little (virtual) coffee catch up! 😊 So without further ado, let’s […]
Sometimes, retail therapy is a must and last weekend it definitely helped! I visited my sister who is currently at Uni studying Drama and our time together consisted of food, shopping, more food and more shopping! 😂 Despite being poor for a week, I had an amazing time and can’t wait to do it again! As […]
