I am sure you must have been wondering where I am and why I haven’t written for so long. Well I had a fall that has landed me in hospital and I’m still here.

I have been watching Bake Squad and playing  Cards Against Humanity Family Edition that Kevin bought a few weeks ago as something we could all play together.

So I was thinking about  encouragement and praise you get as a child and as well of us are doing   Even if we don’t feel like it, because it makes a massive on whatever person is feeling. 

I don’t know about you, but I don’t directly think about light or the kind of light being used but I was thinking about it today because Kevin had gone out for a meal with a good friend.

Can I be honest here?  I have had relationships with friends where I have or haven’t done something, the move to Scotland and other factors.

Have you ever been asked if you liked a piece of art?  To get to the truth, how do you do it?  Because you can APPRECIATE the work someone has put into it and the shapes and not actually LIKE the style.

I have had a sneaky suspicion that Johnathan had completed another growth spurt so got him to give me a hug and we measured and now he is as tall as me. 

You might just be wondering about why I have called this The Rolling Hills.  Well, the reason is because I wanted not ONLY to see a poem I’ve written but to help you see the beauty of the rolling hills and it’s the title of the poem.  

Well, what on earth can I pick out today?  I saw a television show where the husband was meant to go out and get people to come in and he just couldn’t do it. 

My very first thought was to write about holidays but I decided to talk about rest instead because each advert on either a series or program is about summer holidays.

Do you ever do silly things like drop something that you were going to use, or pick up something that you dropped it and it needed sorting out?

I was just thinking about the small things that make a huge difference in the life.  And mostly when it’s unexpected, makes all the positive.

I want to talk to you about being proud of your own achievements.  Now this may sound a little unlikely or untimely but I was thinking about it and how happy it can make you.

Oh yes, I wanted to talk to you about sickness or illness and someone on the spectrum.  Now it could be possible that they don’t have sensory issues but I must admit that Johnathan does. 

Masking is probably one of the most frustrating things for the parent or carer of a child on the spectrum.  The child may be in school or even nursery or kindergaden.

Do you know how difficult it can be getting the right person for the right job is?  It can be extremely hard, nearing impossible actually, for some things. 

As I use the cap more and more, I am discovering that I CAN do more things than I thought.  And it has been amazing thinking about how my life has changed.

Well, I am sure you have seen my posts on setting intentions for the year rather than having goals or words and that it worked really well for me last year (really only last year!).

Every year we try and see the New Year concert from Vienna on BBC 2 (If you missed it is available on iplayer).  And it’s something I look forward to all the time.

In the new years postings, so far I have been talking about the intention setting concept that I have (I think) mostly worked out.
