I step away from what harms me. I protect my peace. And I keep going.



Peter showed up for me yesterday 👊🏻☺️

He even took the day off work just to support me — and that meant more than I can put into words, so I treated us yesterday to some nice food.


Despite chronic pain, I got everything done that I needed to. Not everything went to plan, but I still showed up — and that matters.


Today is about magazine work and continuing the decluttering with DCC Breakthrough.


Last night, my body completely seized up and I’m still in a lot of pain today. Without my prescribed medical cannabis, I would genuinely be in hospital or unable to cope. Pain management isn’t a luxury — it’s essential. It saves lives.


I’m aiming for the 10th for the magazine release. If it’s slightly delayed, I’m not stressing — it will be completed properly and shared as soon as it’s ready.


I keep going.

On the painful days.

On the heavy days.


I won’t lie — the pain triggered my depression last night and my mind turned on me for a bit. But I grounded myself, put meditation on, curled up with Peter, and got through it. That’s what resilience actually looks like.


As for everything else — I’m not entertaining it.


Some people keep announcing their departure while supporting behaviour that is harmful, dishonest, or abusive. That’s not something I align with — and I’m completely at peace with that.


I’m intentional about who I allow in my space.

If someone chooses harm, negativity, or enabling that behaviour — they’re not for me, and that’s okay.


The past couple of weeks have been intense, from multiple directions. And this is exactly why some people give up — on opportunities, on themselves, on life.


I won’t.


I step away from what harms me.

I protect my peace.

And I keep going.


Always. 👊🏻✨

Fighting for Community: Why The Aviator Matters More Than Ever Something powerful happens when people come together — when a space opens its doors to everyone, no matter their background, ability, or walk of life. That’s what The Aviator Sports & Live Lounge has done for our town. And now, it’s under threat. For years, The Aviator has been more than just a venue. It’s been a beating heart in Newton Aycliffe. A place for celebration, connection, live music, family events, sports, comfort food, and spontaneous laughter with strangers who become friends. It’s one of the rare spaces that makes you feel like you belong — and in a world that can feel so divided and isolating, that’s priceless. As a disabled woman, I’ve often found public spaces either inaccessible or unwelcoming. But not The Aviator. It’s one of the few places where I’ve never had to fight to be included. The staff have always been kind, attentive, and respectful. I can just be. That shouldn’t be rare — but sadly, it is....

Let the truth free:

I'm done being scared and bullied and hiding. I set the truth free and if I get harmed and arrested for doing so, so be it. I refuse to be harmed or suffer anymore, I can't cope. I've harmed no one at any time and asking for an apology and blogging about my mistreatment doesn't justify false allegations. This has been breaking me. I need to set the truth free so my bullies have no more control. I'm sorry I wish I was stronger. I did my best.

Butterfly world Stockton and abused:

💔 Heartbroken After Today’s Experience at Butterfly World 💔 By Sarah Wingfield — Independent Disability Advocate Today should have been a simple, gentle outing. Instead, it turned into one of the most humiliating and distressing experiences I’ve had in a long time. We visited Butterfly World in Stockton-on-Tees, and while we were inside for roughly forty minutes, Bud stayed in the car. It was cool, the windows were open, the car was in the shade, and he had water. He was absolutely fine. But what wasn’t fine was how we were treated. An employee named India approached us in a way that was shockingly unprofessional, laughing, openly speaking about us to others, and accusing us of animal cruelty. Her behaviour triggered an autistic meltdown in public — not because we had done anything wrong, but because of the hostile, mocking way the situation was handled. Instead of assessing the situation properly, instead of placing a hand inside the car to feel the cool air, instead of speaking res...
