Busy day tomorrow! Finally got a job centre appointment so I'm going to see how they can help me RE accessibility and part time work. Finished notes for a podcast I will be doing with DurhamEnable about their services and what it is like to be disabled. I hope it will help lots of people and is relatable and uplifting!  Then if I'm not too achy, I hope to join my hometown at their food festival event so if you see me there say hi! There'll be live music and plenty of food to enjoy! Last time I was there I was running the Aycliffe Uncensored page (I had to step down from creating and running the page due to ostracising issues from local organisations etc which made it difficult to manage the page and do the community work) and I had filmed for that page but tomorrow I'm just going to enjoy myself and capture footage for my personal blog and social media channels. Today however is a rest day, as I've had a very difficult week and life has tested me this week as it can...

UC and Job Centre irony:

  I've needed some rest days and today I had a very interesting call from a pain support service my GP referred me to. I'm waiting for an email about what they do and can offer me and since I've done everything up to this point alone and with little to no support, I hope I can find some helpful tips and tricks to help manage even better than I am on bad pain days and flare up days. I don't understand this world as some people are so hypocritical and fake and preach things they don't believe in just for clout, but atleast the universe is removing people like that from my lane. That I can be thankful for at least. I contacted my UC journal about rent changes as rent has gone up for everyone and thought I'd leave a message asking if they would be willing to help with seeking part time work as well as DurhamEnable. I got a very odd response. I stated "I'm working with DurhamEnable to try and secure part time paid work but I'm struggling due to my dynami...

Dear younger me:

~To younger me, I'm sorry I ever doubted you, this is the life meant for you, you should have always chased your dreams.~ IMDb.me/SarahWingfield 🎬 I want to take the time to say a huge thank you to everyone who has uplifted me, supported me, saw me at my worst, still see me during pain flare ups and as I fight my body, pushed me, believed in me and I hope, truly, that I can inspire others to never quit on their dreams and aspirations.  To inspire people to always face obstacles head on, even when those obstacles are their own body, and I hope that other disabled people can see their worth and are aware of their qualities and skills, even if most of the world overlooks us. Stand in your own light and never be afraid to shine. When I first broke out of my bedbound and housebound situation, not all that long ago in 2021, I never thought I'd ever be in the position I am now; actioning positive change, helping others, studying and bettering myself and achieving, what are big things...

I'm proud of me:

  No one likes someone who can see through their facade. They gang up to discredit them because they're a threat to their fake reputations. They can stay scared of the truth, I'll never apologise for being authentic and I'll always avoid unsafe spaces. Stay authentic and keep being someone who prioritises safeguarding over petty peer pressure and clique-politics. 💯 I'm proud I'm hated by those I am hated by, they earned their place with their BS. 😘❤️ I hate no one. I sometimes hate how people choose to behave but as long as they stay out of my lane and away from me and stop sabotaging or interfering then I'm golden!  Even when they hate and ostracise, it just pushes me to be more driven anyway, I channel negativity and turn it into something positive, tangible, even if it's simply determination to use to go after my goals harder. I'm proud of me. 💯💪🏻❤️☺️✨ Sarah Wingfield ✨

Happy Mother's Day 💐

Happy Mother's Day! ❤️  We started by losing an hour for day light savings and I've had a bad pain flare last night and managed to get through filming and I'm now resting in bed for the next few days. Had a lovely time with my son yesterday and my partner as we gamed and then watched movies. My son got me a wonderful card and some wine and I dropped my mam's gifts off yesterday. I hope everyone in the UK have had a wonderful mother's day and I'm so amazed by my son every single day. So grateful and thankful to be a mother, when I was told at a young age I wouldn't be. He is my miracle and I'm so proud of him and of the man he's becoming! I'm being targeted again by Instagram as they are censoring and removing my content under the false label 'inauthentic behaviour' and now I am at risk of losing my second TikTok because they're not plus size friendly. The world's getting worse every single day and we can't change or stop it. M...

The nation is shaken:

 ❤️‍🔥 To all my disabled friends being targeted by ignorant people off the back of the government, their idiocy is not your fault, I hope you still see and accept your worth in the face of the negativity, hate and attacks happening right now. It's not long ago a friend of mine got targeted in the street due to her disability, we aren't safe but we were never safe and we've fought so far so we can't quit. It's not our fault people choose negative energy instead of using their voice to action positive change, they can't see we are all in the same boat and by targeting us they're drowning themselves. People no longer listen to reason or logic, hating and dictating has become the norm. Just know you are not alone, I've heard and care deeply about what is going on and the stress and anxiety my disabled community and friends are experiencing right now and you are not alone and never will be. We are in this together and we are the only ones trying to save us A...
