How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life?
It’s hard to define what a significant event is, as they’re so subjective. That in itself could be something else I write about. But the passage of time seems something universal I can write about.
The passage of time influences my perspective on life because it changes what is and isn’t important to me.
Things that are important in the moment, don’t often seem as important when the time has passed.
Now I know there’s more I can say about this, and more that I relate to myself personally, but I’m honestly lacking the motivation to write.
What are 5 everyday things that bring you happiness?
1. My dogs. My little girls mean the world to me. Caring for them can be a lot of work and would likely be something I would struggle to do alone. But they are worth it and I have help.

2. My electric blanket. I use this daily. Even on the hottest day of the year. It’s also one of my main sources of pain control. However this can be Innaccesssible for me to do independently due to the fact that I can struggle to put the blanket on.

3. A good cup of coffee β. Does anything beat a good cup of coffee? I don’t think so. And even though I often struggle to find the energy to make it myself. I really appreciate having a good cup made for me.

4. A good nap. Sometimes the world gets to much. Life is hard for all of us. And some days it’s just to hard. You can’t be a good nap to get away from this. You could perhaps say napping was inacessible to me, before I figured out a way to somewhat comfortably do so in my chair.

5. A good hug. I do love a good hug from someone I love. Someone that cars a great deal for me. And someone I gave a close relationship with.

Update on my life and the future of the blog, not necessary to read if you don’t want to.
It has been a while since I posted I know please forgive me. The fatigue and depression like feelings I’ve been having lately have made everything but the bare minimum of existing lately seem impossible. I have a deadline coming up in the next two weeks so won’t be posting much until after then. But I then hope to get back into writing more regularly on this blog again and hopefully daily.
Thank you for your patience. And as ever leave me any requests for pictures, questions or topics you want me to talk about or just general feedback as always welcome.
I’m aware my carers can be late in the evening due to previous calls. But when they don’t let me know it delays when I eat my tea, as I explain in the above clip.
Occasionally, I then end up eating my food too quickly for me, as I did tonight. Even though it took me 30mins to eat a small meal, I feel as if I ate it to quickly and I am now dealing with the side effects of this.
Almost everything I do is reliant on other people. All I’m asking for is them to understand and respect that. And at least tell me when they’re going to be late.
I’ve heard them like to other clients while in my house. They seem not to be able to understand that honestly is better than lying and it’s honestly frustrating.
This evening they used the excuse that I wouldn’t answer the phone, while this is occasionally true, that’s not an excuse for them not ringing or contacting me in any way.
They want understanding when they don’t really want to give me any.
My life is inaccessibile to me when people lie to me, and don’t tell me what is going on. What’s a job to them is literally my life.
