Word of the Day is ‘fudgelling’ (18th century: pretending to be extremely busy whilst not doing very much at all.


Oh the annoying cyclical mess that is trying to get support for #AuDHD… i must choose & make decisions to find the right person to work with… but i have no executive function & freeze when making decisions so can’t find that person 🤦‍♀️ #adhd #autism #lifecoach #accesstowork


Not going to lie, it’s been a tough couple of months for the old brain and the rain and gloom hasn’t helped … BUT my beloved @bonfireradicals are back on tour soon which means sparkles, joy and silly shoes! See you there too? 💛🔥🎶 Tickets: bonfireradicals.com/gigs/

….. this is absolutely devastating for Birmingham…

Devastating news from Birmingham City Council with colossal budget cuts incoming. Arts organisations including CBSO, B'ham REP Theatre, B'ham Royal Ballet & B'Ham Opera Company set to have 50% funding cut this year, then 100% (!) funding cut next year. Absolutely criminal. (🧵)



And the final offering for our week of @SFE_MS City Music Festival…. My incredible students playing Beethoven’s 5th symphony! Learnt in 4 lessons, and only one short rehearsal to put it all together 🎶 What an achievement, happy half term everyone! #SFECMF

Painful to listen to @BBCRadio2 discussing the heartbreaking lack of care and support for autistic and neurodivergent children. Bit too close to home for a Thursday lunchtime. #AuDHD

I was super productive for two days straight, and today I feel like I am treading through water. That is how #ADHD feels, consistently inconsistent with energy, motivation, and output.
