Hello 2020!

Hello

Just wanted to start the New Year with a blog post. You will start to see a lot more of me as I want to step up my blogging a lot this year.

2019 was an amazing year with lots of wonderful things achieved. To be honest I wasn't sure how the the rest of the year would go after leaving college. However I was totally surprised how much I was able to do and set up with help from my family.  I thought coming home from college would be strange for me but I was happy to be home and back into family and home life.

I know that every year can have their ups and downs and we can't make everything go our way, however we can make the best of whatever we have and be happy with what we have.  I am so happy with how 2019 went and I am excited to see if 2020 will be even better!

I am not setting any New Year resolutions but I just want the year to be filled with happiness, love and laughter. I do believe if these three things are a part of the year, we don't need much else to keep ourselves satisfied.  These are more important to me that having an unrealistic resolution that I forget about by the end of January.

My main outlook for 2020 is to carry on being as independent as I can and get stronger so I can do even more.  The main goal is to keep moving on everyday and treating it as a fresh new day to make it how you want it to be. It is a fresh start to change anything we aren't happy about. Going into a new year makes me think about what I need to do to make it even better than last year. I like going into a new year because it allows me to feel excited about what is to come in the upcoming year.

Well, I'm going to say hello to 2020 and wish everyone a Happy New Year

Abbie xx

Slowly approaching the next stage of life

Hey guys Thought this blog may help others that are starting to think about coming to the end of school, sixth form, college, uni etc and have worries or fears about starting a chapter in life. I am in my last year at sixth form and starting to think about what is best for me in terms of needs, skills, learning to work with a wider range of people etc. I don't know about others but I worry about going somewhere new, meeting new people and adapting to their way of working. It scares the hell out of me but how I look at it is I am there to widen my own knowledge and skills to better myself for the future. Has anyone got to the school gates or waiting for a interview for college or uni etc and thought I don't want to be here, lets face it we all have been in similar situations. I remember sitting in a meeting to start sixth form and felt physically sick and was thinking will I be ok to do the course? will I get along with the people... 2 years on sixth form feels like my secon...

Get Over Yourself...We're Only Disabled! Part 25

Get Over Yourself ... We're Only Disabled ! Hey my lovely readers. I hope you are well.  Acknowledgements   Well, what can I say? I can't believe I have written my first book!  It took me a whole year to write this, with support from staff at National Star College and my family.  I thought writing a book would be really difficult and I would have just given up over time but despite amending how many chapters I wanted in this book, I achieved what I wanted to get out of writing a book. I must admit that I haven't worked on “Get Over Yourself, We’re Only Disabled” religiously.  However, it has been refreshing to have a goal to work towards.  Something that can be my thing, my aim, and my success.  I feel that I have achieved that. I want to say a massive thank you to my family for helping me over the years to get to this point where I’ve been able to write this book and have the knowledge and understanding of my life and mine...

Up Movement, The Adult Cerebral Palsy Movement Hi my lovely readers, hope you are well. I know after I finished posting my book, I wasn't sure on what to post on my blog. So I decided to have a little break to think about what I could post about but I really wanted to come back with a special idea for my blogs, I wanted to talk about what is interesting me lately. I attend a Zoom meeting each week with a lovely organisation called UP movement, a group set up by an amazing lady called Emma and then another brilliant lady called Mirriam. Emma has Cerebral Palsy herself, so that in its self is really lovely as it gives others a sense of achievement and encouragement, just to learn about her journey with Cerebral Palsy. Emma is incredible, she has Cerebral Palsy, however she is a wife and a mother, she is the founder of Up Movement and a strong advocate and a voice for people with Cerebral Palsy.    The people who attend are adults with Cerebral Palsy, so this ...
