    what is your stim?

    Right now I'm kind of bouncing my feet up and down on the toes while rocking my head side to side with a little internal song that simply goes "Tippy-toes, tippy-toes, tippy tippy tippy-toes". I don't even know. I must be in a good mood.

    Do You Like to Cook?

    Oooh I love cooking! It's so therapeutic to me! I make home-cooked meals every day for the family, and really enjoy it. Hopefully going to cook up my famous roast pork dinner this weekend, then use the leftovers to make a pork curry on Monday. It's just nice to be running around the kitchen and...

    StopTober...

    So I've been watching T.V a lot (as usual, since I am a complete couch potato), and those of you in the UK will know about the StopTober adverts. I have one thing to say to that scheme: go away. For those who haven't heard of it: StopTober is an annual event that happens in October where people...

    Do you do the Aspie Stare?

    I think I'm pretty lucky with mine in that everyone I spend time with are used to my expression (or lack thereof). When I first got with my fianc? he used to ask me if I was OK like 4 times a day, but now he just lets me get on with it. Whatever 'it' is :)

    Just my thoughts and sharing some news :)

    Feeling sleepy, headachey and just about ready for bed. My big fella's on night shifts for the forseeable future, which sucks as he's working all night and sleeping most of the day, so I get a grand total of about 3 hours a day with him, and most of that is spent with him staring at the TV and...

    Comment by 'Laura' in 'Been a while. Again.'

    Hey wyv :) I won't lie, it isn't easy. But Harley has a mobile phone, and we keep in touch regularly. Little Evie is a bit tougher as she's just a baby, but I get regular pictures and updates from my sister-in-law and the odd phone call. Hopefully we'll see each other again soon :)

    Been a while. Again.

    I mean to blog as often as possible to try and document my thoughts so maybe I can get to the bottom of some of the troubles in life. That and it'll stop people looking at me funny when they catch me talking to myself! Buut I've been busy as all hell lately what with uni, housework and generally...

    Hello..

    Hi there, welcome! Don't listen to those who tell you to 'act normal', because there's no such thing as normal! :)

    what is your stim?

    This one was just too funny to not share with you guys. I was making a coffee, and out of my mouth pops 'BADONK-A-DONK-DONK!', complete with hand flap and a little bounce. Now I can't stop. I also can't stop giggling. Too much caffeine I think. ^_^

    what is your stim?

    I've started 'tippy-toeing' everywhere again. My feet just don't want to go flat, especially when I'm excited. What makes me chuckle is I have enormous feet (UK size 10), so when I stand on my toes I gain a good 6 inches in height, which makes my poor 5'4" housemate feel a bit inadequate haha :)

    What sort of sensory therapies do you use?

    I'm considering getting some sensory aids for myself, and am wondering if you guys use any, and if so, do they work? I find I struggle a lot with needing physical pressure, so a weighted blanket may work, and I've chewed through about 8 necklaces so far, so considering getting some 'chewelry' or...

    Stuck on Songs

    I'm like that definitely. I got stuck on constantly listening to Superbeast by Rob Zombie non stop for about a month. Drove my friends crazy! But I also tend to get stuck on certain riffs, like right now I'm rewinding the TV over and over again because Money for Nothing is playing and it's my...
