CoPilot to Heck 2
Or Nobody Likes Me Anymore Welcome bak to the single least popular post I’ve ever made. And because it was so unloved, like me, I’ve decided to get it all out of the way in one blow, as my children would like to do with me, and doubling its size, like me who is definitely…

CoPilot to Heck
Word has done it again. It has added a feature that I didn’t ask for, I don’t want, and I can’t refuse. Why do we have to pay to have these ad machines in our home? I mean, this computer that I had to pay for clearly serves Microsoft first and foremost and me when…

De Railed Part 5 and thank goodness the end of the line.
Okay so maybe something went a little wrong yesterday but on a happy note some of the biscuits (cookies) made it to my mother in law’s house. And many made it home again because our cousin can’t eat gluten. Not in a faddish way, in the has the genuine medical problem sensible way. So in…

Singing a funny song preferably with actions wakes her up. By the time she can sing the song properly she is ready to safely walk around. This…

I Told You I Was Fine
Ha Ha Ha, everybody else was wrong! Meaning, of course, I was right, how could you doubt it! The Mastitis is all gone. My ruthless, relentless draining of the infection worked. I have learned over many years of infections, sinusitis & abscesses. Cutting or in the case of teeth pliering out the problem & then…

The Quest for Mobility
Monday the money we’d borrowed had finally hit our bank account and we were off to buy our new car. Our budget was a massive $4500. We went past over 40 car yards stopping whenever it wasn’t obvious they didn’t have any 7 seat vehicles. 3 out of 4 had no 7 seat cars, those…

Great News, I Might Be Sick!
This is a statement healthy people will never understand. It is part of the reason I believe it is so vital to tell kids if they have autism. I am happy I am sick because I feel absolutely dreadful, but if I’m sick and it has a name I might get better. I have heard…

A Novel
Hi, just a quick note to let everyone know what I’ve been doing the last two days. I have been making a background book for a novel. Yes having started to write a mere 6 months ago I think I can write a novel. I was writing a book on autism but it is upsetting…
