Screenshot of the dexcom apps pop up saying "Sensorstoring". The sensor is defective and needs to be removed.

I mean it's warming up now but I also had to put patches on top of the sensor and it all takes such a chunk of my patience :")

Dexcom sensor placement at 12 am, because I don't wanna finger prick.

We suck at this game lol. Absolutely adore it though, it's really fun once you get into it. Great for distraction because of it being a rhythm game.

This was nice to do! My fingers only cramped a little, but this was fun to do despite that! Will try other LEGO projects in the future.

Yep. This is the life. Sorting and following instructions. Oh LEGO, we're really in it now...

Made a skeleton bat. It came out wonky and missing a few beads (the beads are a cheap off brand.) It's hanging on one of my bedroom walls rn. Really like it.

I got some new tea to try out. Currently trying out Honey Lemon Ginseng Green Tea from Celestial Seasonings.

Also got another box of Bengal Spice. Love it. Finally able to balance it, so it isn't overpowering my taste buds (those bags smell so strongly!)
A picture of two boxes of Celestial Seasonings Tea. One is orange, the other green. On the left we have Bengal Spice Infusion Tea, which is the orange box. It has art of a rich landscape with a tiger in the front, laying there chilling with spices. On the right we have the green box with a white horse. It is Honey Lemon Ginseng Green Tea. The horse's mane is made out of honey, and the horse is surrounded by lemon slices and leaves.

Well. Feral Creatures (Hollow Kingdom part 2) was a delight from start to finish.

Finished "All Tangled Up In Autism and Chronic Illness" by @charliclement.bsky.social

Thank you for writing such an amazing book! It was really helpful, and I felt seen.

As a nonbinary autistic person, this topic has always stressed me out. I hated being told that there was something as "female autism".

Unnecessary gendering, and very confusing too. Where do you belong, when you're neither male or female, but people talk of male & female brains?
A photo of text from the book 'All Tangled Up In Autism And Chronic Illness' by Charli Clement from Chapter 9 'Gender, Medical Misogyny and Menstrual Health' "There is no 'female autism' or specific autism that is found in women, girls or those assigned female at birth. Many have misconceptions about this, and there is a rapidly increasing misunderstanding that there are different autisms found in different genders. Although some traits may present subtly differently, causing them to be missed by many parents, teachers and doctors alike, and masking may be more common in those assigned female at birth, this does not mean there is a separate brain wiring."

Also when I think of "Prikkel(s)" I think of Freddi Fish' Sea Urchins ("zee egels!" <- that translates to "sea hedgehogs")

Currently going through The Autism Friendly Cookbook. Finally at the recipes section of the book, at the breakfast part.

Found two things that sounded good so far!

These aren't the full pages. Just wanted to give you all a glimpse of the book.
A recipe page of The Autistic Friendly Cookbook for Frozen Yogurt Fruit Pops. In the upper right it shows icons which indicate that the recipe is vegetarian friendly, gluten free, suits sensory seekers and sensory avoiders. The page shows a duration of 6 hours of freezing and 15 minutes of prep. It also shows you need minimal energy by stating Energy rating is Low. The skill level is Easy. To make when: you need something 'extra' for your breakfast the next day; you need to make a meal plan and use up food instead of wasting it; you have to entertain younger family members; you have some leftover ingredients and need an easy solution to get rid of them. I was always very familiar with yogurt based ice lollies when growing up; they were cheap and budget-friendly, and would keep us entertained as small children for a while. EQUIPMENT YOU WILL NEED 1 chopping knife 1 chopping board 2 tablespoons 1 smoothie maker 1 set of ice lolly moulds with spaces for 4 lollies INGREDIENTS 9 strawberries 1 handful of raspberries 5 tablespoons of strawberry yogurt 2 tablespoons of honey A recipe page of The Autistic Friendly Cookbook for Strawberry Porridge For One Person In the upper right it shows icons which indicate that the recipe is vegetarian friendly, vegan friendly, diary free, gluten free, suits sensory seekers and sensory avoiders and is adaptable for sensory seekers and sensory avoiders. The page shows a duration of 20 to 25 minutes. It also shows you need moderate energy by stating Energy rating is Moderate. The skill level is Easy. To Make When: you have a late start to the day, more than usual; you are making breakfast at the weekend; there are some ingredients you need to get rid of in your cupboards and your fridge. In speaking to Sarah Hackert for the recipe prior to this one, we had to do a lot of what we called 'translating', due to speaking to eachother from across the pond! We explored various different ways to prepare oatmeal/porridge - so this recipe also had to be in the book. EQUIPMENT YOU WILL NEED 1 chopping board 1 chopping knife 1 kettle 1 mixing bowl 1 silicone or wooden spoon 1 bowl for serving INGREDIENTS 10 strawberries 35 grams (1.5 ounces) of porridge oats/oatmeal (gluten-free versions are available) A sprinkle of sugar Optional: maple syrup or honey for serving

Picture from last night.

The Stitch Squishmallow is my comfort plush atm (he's been to therapy with me on Thursday- the day I bought him together with my fidget cube).

I have been learning how to shuffle cards and I found out I have a new fave side of the fidget cube. I like three sides now.

It might help seeking out your Sensory Profile!

If you figure out your sensory needs - I know you said that Sound is the biggest factor - there are more senses to go around. It's a mix of hypersensitivity and hyposensitivity. And yes, it could manifest differently day by day.
Text from the book: All Tangled Up In Autism And Chronic Illness. Sensory Profiles Sensory Profiles are sometimes called Sensory checklists or Sensory reports. They detail your sensory needs and help you to understand your sensory system. Everyone's sensory needs and sensory system are unique to them, even those who are both autistic and have the same Chronic illness. You could go through this chapter building your own sensory profile. Use each subheading to consider: • How you experience hypersensitivity or hyposensitivity - many people find that they experience both in different ways for each sense • What sort of sensory input you find overstimulating or understimulating • Support aids you can use to regulate these forms of sensory input • How you can prevent meltdowns/shutdowns and how you can plan for when these do occur • How your chronic illness impacts your sensory needs and how you can support this (Note: this isn't just for Chronic illness)

Got The Autism Friendly Cook Book by Lydia Wilkins in the mail yesterday! Really excited to go through it and mark the pages with recipes I'd like to try.

I read about it in the book All Tangled Up In Autism And Chronic Illness by Charli Clement. Got so excited I had to get it.
A white book against a busy background. The book in question is "The Autism Friendly Cookbook" by Lydia Wilkins. It is white, with "The Autism Friendly" being teal, and "Cook Book" being dark orange. The book has different drawings of cooking utensils on the bottom of the cover. It leans against a blue purplish bookseat sitting on top of a filled booksleeve. In the background is a wooden rack with all kinds of washitapes.

I spend longer than an hour in the cold and hail and rain waiting for my packages but this was the first thing I saw when I was outside and I felt joy & took it as a sign that it would be alright for me today.

THE WAIT WAS WORTH IT.

Finished reading two books today! Dual reading paid off. I am on schedule.

First book was The Whistling by Rebecca Netley.

Second book was You Mean I'm Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?! by Kate Kelly and Peggy Ramundo.
Screenshot from the app Bookmory. The screen is a Congratulatory screen saying "Congratulations! You're all done!" with a picture of the front of the book "The Whistling" by Rebecca Netley. Confetti covers the screen. The book cover for The Whistling is mostly black and white and features a picture of a big mansion towering over a hill. Gold text reads "if you can hear it... ...it's already too late" The title itself is ghostly and white. A screenshot of the app Bookmory. It is a congratulatory screen that you get when you finish a book. The text above the book reads: "Congratulations! You're all done!" There is confetti on the screen. The book in question is "You Mean I'm Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?!" by Kate Kelly and Peggy Ramundo. The book is dark blue with the title being yellow. In a circle it says "Now updated".

I now have a fancy doorbell >:3 my old one died and it was an annoying time living without one. My neighbor would agree.
Two doorbells hanging on a white doorpost. One is white with a red "F" on it, marking the doorbell for apartment F, which is OP's neighbor's apartment. The other is gold on the sides and black. It has white text with the brand name being "aigostar" and a bell symbol signaling where to press the doorbell for it to go off. In the middle of the doorbell is a large and golden glittery "G", marking the bell to be for apartment G, which is OP's apartment.

.....why are they calling Bush "the daddy". Are Americans calling their presidents "daddy" all the time as if normal bc they're like father figures for their country? or do these authors have a crush I can Shame them for?
A picture of a text in the book "You Mean I'm Not Lazy, Stupid Or Crazy?!" by Kate Kelly and Peggy Ramundo, Chapter 6 - The Art of Relating: in Groups and Friendships The text reads: "Others may grasp the precise meaning of spoken words but misunderstand the message of nonverbal language. Years ago, during a visit to Australia, [green highlighted text starts here] President George Bush (the daddy) [/end green highlighted text] held up his fingers in a "V", recognized by Americans as the classic symbol of victory. Much to his chagrin, he learned that an Australian uses the "V" to communicate the same thing as an American holding up his middle finger! President Bush really should have taken a crash course in the Art of Nonverbal Communication before he made his historic blooper!" Underneath the text is a cartoon image of George Bush standing in front of a desk with a microphone, making a "V" sign with three fingers, and an egg being thrown at him.
