You’ve probably heard me speaking about masking and autism. This can be very difficult to understand and accept.

This can be very traumatic for both adults and children alike. They have no say in the matter and with children on the spectrum.

Well, well, well. Why am I going to talk about this? The problem starts when the child is born and the things they have to do to help their children before their autism diagnosis.

I was thinking about this and wondered HOW you actually get to spend special time with someone. Is it the “traditional” way?

Well, yes, it’s that time again and you’re dreading having to think of either resolutions or choosing a word for the year.

When it comes around to Christmas, you don’t want problems or difficulties, or okay maybe minor ones that you could only get single cream and not double cream.

I was just looking at the stats, and wondering what they were like. Amazingly it’s been about three months since I lost wrote about them and quite honestly.

There’s noting like a good Christmas when everybody has a wonderful time and enjoy not only their presents but the company.and food - everything, in fact.

Did you ever get given these for your Christmas as a child and your parents thought they could be thankful for an hour of peace and quiet.

I’ve been thinking about Christmas this year and what we can consider to be good and bad ones. And why we make a judgement on it.

I was going to use dictation but got SO FRUSTRATED because it thought I wanted music, then it decided to send me news and dictation went out the window.

I don’t know about you, but in my mind I had many ideas of how Christmas would be when I had children.

I said I would write a bit more about my experiences with autism. Did you know that autism and ADHD are very closely related?

To all my followers, I have suffered an injury to my fingers and have been told to keep off it for four to six weeks.

Well, as you know from the many times I have told you the autism spectrum is massive and you can be completely non-verbal.

Do you know, I think this is one of the hardest and longest things I have had to battle on behalf of my son ever? It takes YEARS. And it’s not an easy road to travel, either.

The other day I had the professional organiser Elaine round and as usual the time spent with her was unique, personal and special.

Due to unforeseen circumstances we haven’t been able to finish the books so they will be produced next year instead.

I give you permission to be, The person you never knew, The one shut up inside you, Not daring to make a move.

There are two types of Anticipation I believe - when you expect something good or something bad. For example you can look forward to a birthday party, or you can dread a letter.
