What's on your mind right now?

I spoke on a state-wide call today on an important issue. That used up a lotta spoons. But I did well, my voice didn’t tremble. I was prepared. Am paying the price now.

Anonymous: I wish I could go with you to the meeting with the employment coach. Tell her/him what you want out of life and out of employment. Be optimistically realistic.

I feel bad for Muslims/people of Muslim heritage who are aspie/autistic/have anxiety issues and live in Manchester. They've prob been psyching themselves up for Eid, being with extended family. 9pm is too late to tell them they can't see family & change all the plans etc. When my anxiety was bad I'd spend all December psyching myself up over Christmas & seeing people & I think I might be that way again this year & if I'm finally emotionally ready to do it and on Christmas eve I'm told I can't do it, I don't think I'll handle that well.

I wish I was in Makkah or Madinah right now. I'm thinking about how the people there are basically doing Hajj for all of us who can't and they hopefully do a good job.

I'm thinking about one of my sons Nurses who was born in Iran and saw that type of forced Shia Islam and how she is so much better than that and she is all the better for detaching herself from it. She did not explicitly say but from conversations I think she's had enough of all the obscuring and bad things in places like Afgh and Iran and just detached herself entirely. Funnily though she practices her life exactly as the ideal .. I got her an Eid gift but didnt say it was fr Eid per se as I did previously...
Juat said it was a present.. She was happy but in her rush forgot to take it home.

Im thinking about how something can be made so different from what it was with total lies pushed in to control ppl like in Iran and Afgh and how traumatizing and damaging that is. And to be whole again she needs to discard that entirely and that's how she embodies the perfect character she has. She's an amazing human being who gives her client her all with sincerity and intelligence in a calm and loving way. And a very gentle but strong person.

She is so wonderful. She's the closest thing I have to a friend in my life.

She transforms my son every visit she lifts him up and he is treated so well he thrives with her care. His top best nurses who were in harmony with his soul, had the best personalities, and knew exactly hpw to approach him so nuch so that they made the biggest difference with him
were

1. Parvin (elderly Irani lady). 2. Irene (Filipino staunch Catholic, my role model, sarcastic humour, taught him how to walk.)
3. This lady (also from Iran but Azerbaijan , which
Is where my favourite novel of all time was set)
For him the best of all was Irene. I think she embodies goodness.

Read some stuff that kind of shoved in my face how far behind most people my age I am, and made me go back to wondering if I’ll ever be able to live on my own, and am depressed because of that again.

I really don’t want to end up in a group home, way too close to way too many people pretty much 24/7, but I have the sneaking suspicion that my only options are a group home or living with my parents for as long as they can take care of me and then either be shoved into some group home or foisted upon some relative or other

Real estate ads.
Some are so poorly written it's laughable.
Today's selection:

"3 bedrooms carpeted with ceiling fans" - that's novel but inconvenient.

"Has 2 Sapphire Ming claims" - Er, who is Ming and what is being claimed about them?

Tomorrow is another day and another month.

Unpopular opinion...
We should stick to the 2 metre rule after lockdown.
I hate being in a city like London or Glasgow or somewhere & people barge into you and if anything THEY expect the apology instead of saying sorry.

Wanting more coffee. And it's past midnight.

Cold, cold day today. Stormy season's finally going! Yay for the annual less fuss about going out. Nay for ridiculous timing for doing more laundry!


... Mom should continue packing these clothes, send them all away, and clean this damn room...

Fed up of falling out with people but the only alternative is letting bad behaviour slide...

Mangos. Hundreds of mangos. Mangos in boxes and bags all over the kitchen floor. Angie and Maha and Pickering and Carrie and Keitt and Carrie Seedling.

I can't stop thinking about Halloween especially with my friend sending me pictures of decorations and stuff.

Lol Essex Boys keep calling KT macho...

I love him but he's not macho lol.

I really, really hate being stuck in the middle. Too disabled to live on my own, but not disabled enough to qualify for any sort of assistance even remotely near here. There’s absolutely nothing to help me here, except for living with my parents for as long as possible (unless you need to be told how to load a dishwasher but can hold a job, apparently - neither of which is true of me (and I’m not trying to belittle anyone or anything, I’m just still ticked off that that program let us get through most of the application stuff before we heard a word about having a job being a requirement for the program (and then they go around boasting of a 100% employment rate ))). I just have to come to terms with that, there are no other options.
