If we were having coffee Iโd tell you I really really miss coffee. Yes Iโm predominantly a tea drinker. But Iโm a coffee shop coffee drinker and itโs coming to iced coffee season. My favourite of them all. I want to sit in a cafรฉ. I donโt want anything epic, just a quiet people watching… Continue reading If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musing #6

Gotta Get Through This – 9 Tips For Self Isolation
Iโve lost count of how many days itโs been since I left the house. I feel I should have started a tally carved into the wall like a prisoner marking the days until release. Leave my mark. A piece of history. Itโs what weโre living right now. History. I know every yesterday is the past.… Continue reading Gotta Get Through This – 9 Tips For Self Isolation
Civilisation Not As We Know It
Remember when we had coffee last month and I said Iโd been home for 12 days straight and kind of liked it? I spoke too soon. I take it back. Covid-19 was in the background a little then. We were aware of it as a nation but not scarily affected. Well now itโs right in… Continue reading Civilisation Not As We Know It
Disabled Access Day – Isnโt Just A Day
Inadequate access. Good access. Crazy access. Access. Itโs basically why I blog, why I started writing and ranting to you almost four years ago. I wanted to raise awareness of what access is, how it can improve and the places that get it spot on. Because itโs a part of my life. Access isnโt just… Continue reading Disabled Access Day – Isnโt Just A Day
If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musing #5
If we were having coffee youโd probably come round mine as Iโve only left the house a few times this year. One of which was in an ambulance. At one point last month I had a running streak of 12 days inside. By that I mean I didnโt even step into the garden. Itโs worrying… Continue reading If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musing #5
12 Steps to Becoming a Confident Wheelchair User (pun intended)
I recently got a new wheelchair, well I got it almost a year ago, but things take time to get used to. You may have heard my moans. It wasnโt until I got my new wheels, a chair totally different than any Iโve had before, that I really considered the impact my wheelchair has on… Continue reading 12 Steps to Becoming a Confident Wheelchair User (pun intended)
Talking Toilets With Invisibly Me – Guest Post
We are all guilty of having given the odd inward eye roll when we see someone walking out of the accessible toilets. I know I have, briefly doubting their need for using them, silently accusing them of just not wanting to queue, skipping the wait, but then stopping myself. Feeling ashamed. Iโm a bad person.… Continue reading Talking Toilets With Invisibly Me – Guest Post
Aims Accomplished โ Aims Not Resolutions 2020
January may not have started off well, flu really is evil. Iโve ended the month on a high though and as D-Ream sang โthings can only get betterโ. Of course, the first event I properly left the house for, after leaving hospital, was afternoon tea. I couldnโt have planned it. Well I did, but you… Continue reading Aims Accomplished โ Aims Not Resolutions 2020
Friends, Flu and Frustrations
January is usually the longest month of the year, feeling like it has at least 372 days in it. January 2020 has felt quite different. Yes itโs 2020. Iโm still having trouble typing and saying it. Sounds like the future doesnโt it?! Twenty Twenty. Well if we are in the future, it still feels pretty… Continue reading Friends, Flu and Frustrations
If We Were Having Festive Coffee In Limbo – Life Musing #4
If we were having coffee you may need a pad and paper to take my order. Iโm the kind of person you regret asking if theyโd like a coffee while out, because when given the option I have the works. Plus Iโm fussy and awkward and rather specific. Itโs not all my fault though. Iโll… Continue reading If We Were Having Festive Coffee In Limbo – Life Musing #4
