No, you did a panicked 5 bag cull of one of your kid's clothes when you realised the reason you struggle to put their laundary away is because you know it won't fit.

@fodderfigure.bsky.social Hooray! Another great person in the cloud place.
Also um thanks to insight from my kids, and insights from your book, and tweets, and then a massive flaming burnout, I'm officially AuDHD now.

It has been a difficult and busy week. Lots of negotiating ableist systems and being exhausted by them. Today was #TherapyMonday so there was a bit of a debrief around all of that - and then talking how to manage this Thursday.

700 donated BlueSky codes have made it into the hands of members of the chronic illness community, with another 100 ready to go tomorrow morning, once my mail merge program has had a rest so I'm not exceeding its limits. Thank you so much! Let's keep it up. forms.gle/k1paHEsGnNJV...

We were discussing superhero powers at breakfast. Everyone listed their cool power. Lucas, my beautiful boy, said, "I don't know... I'm... good with how I am."
Me, "So you'd say you're content?"
He paused, then nodded, "Yep."
"That is awesome to hear buddy."

I am exhausted. I spent two hours in meetings as part of my volunteering for Governing Council. Then I spent an hour and a half meeting with the Year 9 supervisor and the Inclusion Leader around how the school is failing Lucas.

I don't normally clean the toilets, because it grosses me out. But T was taking the kids the Bounce for 2 hours, so I did. And then the little thing that hangs on the side fell in the water and I had to get it out and 🤢

For the 20+ years we have been together, T has been calling me a "barefoot urchin" because if I'm not going out, it's no shoes, no socks. It's only post-diagnosis that I realised that this is another of those inadvertent scaffolding of neurodivergence things. 😅

Lucas' ps5 has been powering off randomly for ages - so we put it in to be repaired (we were going to wait until we went to Vic) so he's been playing animal crossing on his TV, and then Grace started playing on the old one in Eleanor's corner and it's adorable

Eleanor sent me a video of her getting ready, and I was watching it, really hoping she wasn't going to take all her clothes off on camera, but she paused it and used capcut and had transitions to her cheer outfit.

So funny, I hadn't received an email with information about how to get enrolment started and then realised today it's because I'm already set up as a Unisa student from my OUA course 😅

Hey neurospicy pocketfam, I'm thinking about full-time study next year and accessibility requirements. What has worked well for you? What do you wish you'd had access to?

Oh man, it has been a day. One of those ones where you're really left questioning your parenting choices at times. 🫠 I know, kids are kids. And well, neurodivergent kids are kids. But jeez.

Grace got a CD Player, and some Taylor Swift CDs for her birthday - and she's playing Phasmophobia, and it's scary, so she's blasting Taylor while hunting ghosts.

The problem is not that Aboriginal ppl disagree, the problem is that white Australia knows so little about us that some sincerely expect 800,000+ individuals across 250+ nations to have achieved universal consensus on a sensitive and complicated political issue for the convenience of white ppl.

Well, I was browsing subjects at Unisa, and it looks like I can do quite a few of them online!

I'm going to a Uni tour next week. Trying to decide (if I get in) whether I'm doing an online degree or going via Unisa
