Some think that only women work in community care. This is far from the truth. In carriage 4 there are also male employees. This was announced during my intake interview. I was asked if I had anything against that and in all honesty, I had to admit that I would indeed have a hard timeContinue reading “The Brother”

Wally
Image Description: Wally the pluche yellow walibi laying in Codee’s bed, wearing her pyjamas. When my service dog Don retired and had to get off my train, I helped him pack his things. He had many toys. He was addicted to the tennis ball and fond of stuffed animals. These are what mostly filled hisContinue reading “Wally”
The Singing Sister
On a cold and gray morning I was greeted by a sister who doesn’t really get on the train with me very often. Even though she’s friendly, we just don’t have a strong professional friendship. That also makes sense. It is difficult to build such a professional relationship with the sisters if they do notContinue reading “The Singing Sister”
How Do You Do That?
Photo Description: An iPad mounted on a tripod, being used to magnify a ministeck project. I could tell you about how I wen to the animal park with Jessica last Saturday. How we drank lemonade and ate tasty treats. How we visited with the animals. Said hello to the chickens, saw tiny baby nandus, lookedContinue reading “How Do You Do That?”
The Invisible Truth
The only thing interesting that I’ve done this week – aside from the always weird and wonderful skype call with my Dad – is medical fitness. Though… I had a little accident towards the end of my session. I noticed pressure around my knee and asked the physio if there was fluid there. He confirmed.Continue reading “The Invisible Truth”
The Monster Under The Stairs
Photo Description: Codee’s scared BitMoji is sitting next to a scared Emoji. This week hasn’t been super eventful. Outside of the normal skype with Dad and my list of chores, I haven’t done anything worth blogging about. Or at least that’s what i thought until Emily FaceTimed me after I got home from medical fitnessContinue reading “The Monster Under The Stairs”
Spoons
Image Description: Codee’s cartoon face inside a spoon. I feel like this week has been all about finding balance. I first learned about that in 2020 while I was attending Occupational Therapy sessions at an outpatient rehab facility. I had been used to being busy the whole day. After having Covid for the first time,Continue reading “Spoons”
Brain Walk
Photo Description: Portrait of Codee with arms crossed, looking at the camera. This week has been a hot one and I don’t mean hot as in exciting. Temperatures reached a maximum of 31c where I live. That’s 92f! It sounds hotter when you say it in Farenheit. It’s a temperature that I’m not used to,Continue reading “Brain Walk”
The Party & The Park
Photo Description: Queen The Music Tribute band standing on stage. Photo by Mom. It’s been an almost average week full of chores, Skype and FaceTime activities that I promised you I’d no longer talk about in great detail. I did however need to call the doctor on Monday morning and there’s a trip to theContinue reading “The Party & The Park”
Feeling Aweful Positive
Photo Description: A Covid selftest showing a positive result. My readers outside of Twitter and Facebook probably missed me these last few weeks. Though i think by the blog title and the photo, it’s obvious where I’ve been. All mandates and rules in the Netherlands have been relaxed for a few months. Everything is openContinue reading “Feeling Aweful Positive”
