Long Day – 3rd Jan 18
I had been waiting since before Christmas to travel to Merrylands, a suburb in Western Sydney that's around three and a half miles from where I live in Wentworthville. I had found out a couple weeks prior that my Samsung Galaxy 10.5" tablet had been fixed; it needed a replacement battery. There's more to this … Continue reading Long Day – 3rd Jan 18

Cleo’s latest antics
Episode one: This morning, I was just opening my eyes at the same time that Cleo must have woke up because she started her morning routine of rolling around on her bed. Then with her fogged up eyes, she glanced in my direction, and in my bad timing, I had lifted my head the slightest … Continue reading Cleo’s latest antics
Electric Wheelchairs
Well THAT was an experience and a half.. NEVER riding an electric wheelchair again!! Those bad boys are scary as! All I wanted to do was drive one (that was left behind by my scooter guy accidentally) out to the street to be ready for the scooter guy when he comes back for it … Continue reading Electric Wheelchairs
Self Reflection
For my friends on Facebook, you won't need to read this, it's only been altered slightly just to look tidier. In recent days, I've decided to go around the 40 year home owner drought by buying a plot of land and building my own house (albeit with professional builders since my own movements are limited), … Continue reading Self Reflection
