If you follow me on Instagram you’ll have been recently inundated with painted stones. It all started with a Christmas gift. I’m a crafter, always have a project on the go. So, the go to gift for me is a craft kit. Last year I received a metallic stone painting one. With way too much… Continue reading My Stone Painting Obsession – #The100DayProject
If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musing #10
If we were having coffee it would be in my garden. Because we’ve reached that stage again. Come full circle if you like. It’s been over a year since we were all told to stay at home. And I’ve taken that instruction, like I do most things, with determination, will power and a huge amount… Continue reading If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musing #10

I’m Not Special – Language is Crucial
On the last day of accessible advent (I know that feels like forever ago!) I posted a comment that seemed to spark discussion. Door 24 - Language is crucial.

My Year in Books – 2020 (part 2)
Its been well over a year since I wrote one of my usual reviews, the type this blog was established for. The day to day life of a person on wheels. This past year my ramblings have turned into the day to day life of a frustrated shielder, plodding along. It was that or take… Continue reading My Year in Books – 2020 (part 2)
My Year in Books – 2020 (part 1)
Back at the start of 2020 I made it one of my aims to buy less books. There was so much on my bookshelf physically and virtually that I’d been wanting to get through. Little did I know that there would be very little else to do in 2020. I stuck to my goal though… Continue reading My Year in Books – 2020 (part 1)
If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musing #9
If we were having coffee it would again be virtually. How’s lockdown 3.0 going for all those in the UK? Not much different for me so far, as I’ve been shielding since March 2020. If we were having coffee I’d ask if you can believe it’s 2021?! I don’t know how that happened. I thought… Continue reading If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musing #9

Accessible Advent
When I saw that @GinnyAndT was starting #AccessibleAdvent on social media I had to get involved. Every day of December I added my bit to #AccessibleAdvent by posting one thing that would make my life more accessible as a wheelchair user. For those of you that don’t have, or don’t follow me on social media,… Continue reading Accessible Advent
