Mother of 3, Family of 5, not a NeuroT Family, I've forgotten what my hobbies are! But I am very passionately setting up an alternative school free from the restraints from the Department of Education as mainstream just isn't gelling with my family!

5 months later and IFP are dead in the water! Still other thuggish parties to watch though.
IFP started in 2018, National Party started in 2016. Hitler got into Politics in 1920.

"Every 100 years, the ancient hatred changes into fresh clothes, thinking we won't recognise its scent."

Quite a large coincidence.

Thrashing through the snow,
In a nitro-powered sleigh

Over the fields, we go,
Headbanging all the way

Bellz and Whiplash blast,
Making spirits bright

Acting like a maniac
With Metallica Tonight

I was broken.

I wasn’t broken because I was autistic I was broken because I didn’t realise I was autistic.

This doesn’t mean my autism does not pose problems in my life. It does.

Autism is part of me in fact it’s central to my being. It can be a challenge but then life is a challenge…

The more I try to understand masking, the more I suspect it has at its root the need to form deep bonds and connection. It’s not just an attempt to ‘fit in’. It’s a desperate but maladaptive attempt to love and be loved.

This lady is a another hero. It may not be as flashy as Nikita Hand but she asked to speak to our Taoiseach as a carer and despite the disrespect, she stayed calm and held herself with great decorum.
