I was surpised to feel quite good as I woke up on Wednesday morning. I don’t usually sleep well on a flat bed. My adjustable bed at home has been my friend for many years and acommodates the hyper mobile joints very well. So to wake up feeling refreshed after sleeping on a box spring,Continue reading “June 24th – Trains and Castles”

2026 Greek Vacation
Once upon a time a family member asked ‘If you could go anywhere, where would you want to go’. I think their intention was to find a way to arrange something fun for us to do but, I couldn’t answer the question. I’d gotten so used to my illness and disabilities limiting me, that IContinue reading “2026 Greek Vacation”
Cutest Dog on the Internet – In My Professional Opinion
One of the things I’ve been looking forward to the most since I was gifted my DSLR, is a doggy photo shoot. So as soon as Mom left me with her dog while going on a long walk with Jessy, I grabbed my camera bag. I almost feel like he knew exactly what the backpackContinue reading “Cutest Dog on the Internet – In My Professional Opinion”
King’s Day Flevotrucker’s Tour
I think the truck tour is one of my favorite parts of King’s day. Usually each driver plays chauffeur to a child – many of which have a disability. As they ride in the passenger seat, the trucks get in line and start their tour of the village. Honking their horns as they go. IContinue reading “King’s Day Flevotrucker’s Tour”
Deafinitely Not What I Expected: The Blog My Brain Wrote While I Slept

That’s when it happened again. Instead of falling into deep sleep, my brain dragged me into another dream where it mixed a tinyContinue reading “Deafinitely Not What I Expected: The Blog My Brain Wrote While I Slept”
Chapter 5: Wellington House
I marveled at the intricate patterns on the gates as we approached Wellington House. The sun had began to sink into the clouds and its orange glow made the gates twinkle. Alan stepped out of the car to ring a bell located to the right of the gates. Another man who looked similar to Alan,Continue reading “Chapter 5: Wellington House”
Chapter 4: The Adventurer’s First Quest
We moved out of the gates onto a winding road with trees either side. This soon made way for a plethora of buildings, all different shapes and sizes. Many had a similar style to that of Waywood house. Though at some point they became smaller, closer together and looked newer. I became increasingly more uncomfortableContinue reading “Chapter 4: The Adventurer’s First Quest”
Chapter 3: No goodbyes
If Mrs Matthews had instructed me to untangle the pile of unfinished sewing projects laying in my drawer before packing them neatly, I may have required more than two hours to pack. Fortunately, propping them into a paper bag was completely acceptable. In fact, neither Mrs Matthews or Mrs Platt were there to give instruction.Continue reading “Chapter 3: No goodbyes”
Chapter 2: The Second Chance
The war ended 9 years ago today and tomorrow, September 3rd, I’ll be turning 14. It doesn’t feel at all like a special day. So much has changed since the war ended. Except for Mrs Platt. I mean… I suppose she has changed a little. Not for the better though. She is getting older andContinue reading “Chapter 2: The Second Chance”
