Diary of an ASD Squirrel. Day 53 Thursday 21/12/23
TL:DR The day was great, till it wasn’t. ; Dark stormy skies reflected in dark stormy thoughts.
Spent the day relaxing & doing things I really enjoy, Tooting on here, playing NMS with CDP 🧚♀️ & having a good chin wag.
Then the dreaded trip to Costco, which to cut a long story short was everything I expected it to be.
Of course we had no idea of exactly what MiL enjoyed, merely what she didn’t like , because asking questions like “ what would you like to have for xmas lunch Mum” seemed to been deemed irrelevant by AJJ.
So we drove 15 miles to Costco, thru driving rain & heavy traffic & 15 miles back in similar conditions for a single shopping bags worth of stuff from a major wholesale store! Countless triggers along the way.
Hey ho , diverting destructive thoughts by watchingTom Hanks in ‘Fitch’ others may disagree, but I think he is one of the very best actors of our age. He rarely makes a movie that I don’t like.
A man , a dog & his robot, on a road trip to avoid the rest of humanity in a post apocalyptic world, what more does an ASD tech nerd need ?
Final Thoughts:
This place & gaming is currently keeping me sane, this is not a confirmed stable state!
A New Years resolution will be to beat the acrophobia & take responsibility for the shopping again!
Thanks to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you ! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖
