All of my immediate family are neurodiverse, but I have some relatives that are more NT that I learn from, sometimes just by observing them on social media and hearing about them via family members.




My NT family are all in other countries - from UK, South America, USA, Europe. I don't do social media.

I used to visit them but they were all too ... NT.

I hear about them sometimes through the grapevine but I could never, ever emulate their lifestyles (nor would I want to).

The only family I have here are my mother (in her 80s), my brother and my daughter (who is ASD, ADHD, PTSD).

My son moved to Australia but even he is ADHD and LD.

Just be you. At the end of the day, we are all mortal, anxiety is just worrying about the future.

What will be, will be, as they say.

Well, the big storm obviously did a fair bit of regrettable damage in the Southern parts of the UK (at least three deaths), but it still hasn't put in much of an appearance further North. I went out a few hours ago, and it was a bit blustery, and a lot colder than yesterday(five minute hailstorm at around 9:35 pm), but still no big deal. All very calm right now at 3:37 am.

Reminder to self:

If melting any chocolates -- never put water on it. Or any liquid for that matter.

Also I'm sick of not owning a nonstick pan...

I'm thinking of how much I love one of my friends.
His amazing spirit and his honesty.
He has no idea how much he means to people.

I washed my bedding, so now I get to be assaulted by the smell of laundry detergent every time I sleep for the next few days. I'm not pleased. :roll:

My sympathies.

Try unscented washing soda.

Addendum: this also means not putting vanilla extract or any kind of syrup.

Also, strictly powdered ingredients only.

My daughter made chocolate covered strawberries the other day.

Do you need any suggestions?

I wasn't talking about Raleigh. ^

But yes, Raleigh is very kind also.
