The life you want:

-

I've been super busy trying to create the life I want and need and I am still struggling but never quitting.

I have a reverse job fair I can do with DurhamEnable and I'm hoping it will gain me some paid work.

Everything is so expensive when you're disabled and it makes everything much harder because I don't get my prescriptions on the NHS I have to pay a fortune for them monthly and more, I still do my charity work and I've been assigned a child in the care system and I'm hoping to make a positive difference in their life but I wish I could make a positive difference in mine.

I sometimes feel like it's obstacle after obstacle and I'm getting my home tidy and clean and working through the decluttering of how my home was left when I was bedbound, years on I'm still hard at it because of my mobility impairment making it more difficult but I am grateful I have some services who have stepped in to help.

I went to see wrestling yesterday with my partner Peter and it was the first time I'd ever been, I was so happy and enjoyed the whole thing in Darlington and it was something new and fun to do. Pain caused me some bother and I had to go have my medical but I am pleased I still managed to enjoy it.

I am up super early tomorrow morning to get sorted for the planning and preparation of the reverse job fair and I've been releasing more music tracks onto streaming platforms, if opportunities do arise with JNL regarding working with wrestlers etc that is something I could look forward to, but it's not on the cards just yet. I need to pass my practical driving test next and first.

Meanwhile I'm doing everything I can do to get better in all aspects and sectors I work in albeit unpaid and trying to continue towards my goals.

I haven't felt as supported lately but it's okay, I've achieved a lot on my own and I can still achieve a lot on my own, aslong as I hit pause and rest and don't quit.

I know I'll make it through because I always surprise myself and somehow manage to but I wish life was just a little easier.

Sorry I've not updated in a while, so much has been happening and happened and I'm still trying to navigate life the best I can.

Someday's I can feel like nothing I do is good enough and that's very hard to take but I soldier on nevertheless.

I hope I'll get there, I've been seeking employment for three years and I won't quit.

I'm done with Bishop Auckland college:

I got a very unprofessional email (linkedin message) today after promoting the college and resharing several courses I shared this: A colleague had been informed that due to numbers the policing course can't go ahead. (My formal complaint via email is at the bottom of this blog post) So I simply shared a list of their nutritional courses (also helpful) and added if anyone was interested in the level three policing course to enroll asap (based on the information provided we didn't want to lose the course) I received this: I still haven't heard anything official from the college yet and I'm not happy with being told I'm not allowed to share courses to enrol. But to be honest the accusations of misinformation irk me to my core especially without any official correction or context. So I've blocked Adam on LinkedIn and I'm done with Bishop Auckland College now. I am removing myself SO FAST from everyone and everywhere that chooses disrespect over thoughtfulness. ...

Ramside Hall and Northern Housing Consortium:

-

I am excited to say that the event at Ramside Hall went spectacularly well, I attended with my best friend Corin and we had such a lovely time. I gave a wonderful speech as to how Northern Housing Consortium has helped me spectacularly with a bursary for my start up business www.magnoliaphotography.co.uk and I happily share the quoted speech I gave below:  " As a start-up business, I initially struggled to  meet the demands of contractual work. Creating art by finger painting on my phone screen was time-consuming, imprecise, and physically challenging. This made it difficult to meet my clients' expectations for detail and speed. Living with chronic pain and disabilities only added to these difficulties. When I learned through Livin Futures that Northern Housing Consortium was offering a start-up bursary, I immediately applied for a drawing tablet, hoping it could change the way I work. Receiving the bursary has been truly transformative. With my new drawing tablet, I can now ...

Cheers 😔 see: https://pgpandspd.blogspot.com/2024/06/hacked-stickers-betrayal-and-pride.html I got off the phone to Paul Howarth yesterday, whilst I'm with my son in public in a cafe, the ADM meet didn't go ahead, but we stayed anyway and my son encouraged me to merely enquire about the article and why my image was not printed, Paul stated it was a space issue but I explained he'd spliced images before and how much would it cost to get the photo in the paper so I can feel positively represented by my home town as a Newtonian since his only reason was the article was FREE, anyway he got rude and abruptly stated he does a LOT for ADM and it's ALL FREE and that he feels I'm being REALLY UNFAIR and hung u...
