I don’t particularly like living with regrets. I don’t suppose anyone does. My biggest regret though has to be how much time I’ve lost to people who didn’t deserve it. I don’t know if the Autism was part of it, but I was quite a late bloomer when it came to attraction and dating. I

Every woman has heard how awful hot flushes are, but no one ever told me that my words would just up and disappear. You’ll go to say something and even the most common innocuous words will just be gone from your mind. It started with just forgetting the word itself but synonymous words were OK,

Today has been a long day. On top of all my usual issues I’ve found out that I’ve been exposed to, and caught Scabies. Little evil microscopic mites that live in the skin and soft furnishings and make you itchy as hell. Just the thought of them gives me the heebie-jeebies. I’ve never been very
