I have one thread that is my story. I have created one other thread that is a never ending story with a post appearing at random times. I thought about things that I had in games I played and one thing that came to mind was a home. I post replies to other's stories and at the end of the day go to bed. Sometimes there can be things I want to say that might not fit in my story or other threads.
So I decided to create this space where conversations might start and stop, change 180 degrees and go onto some some other tangent. You might have a question for me, or vice versa. Perhaps a place to shout or just get away.. so welcome to my den....
A wolf's den... a home... a place of safety. I will describe this space in a future place.
If you are looking for a chat, a space to share, come in and sit down around a small fire with a tea or coffee to recharge, for connection (?), re-imagination or anything else.

Doorways and showers tend to be somewhat problematic, yes. Quite often I run into the issue of not being able to raise the shower head enough to be able to stand comfortably underneath without bending into a partial squat, and it’s physically impossible to lift most door frames in the same way. 😅
But at least I’m always able to reach high shelves, a skill which comes in handy far more often than you’d think. Not a year goes by without at least one, “Excuse me, could you please lift that off for me?” Of course I get more than enough, “You know, you should play basketball!” as well... ugh... heheh! 🤣
And don’t get me started on needing US size 15 shoes when trying to use stairs intended for “average” sized feet... 🙃

Bad joke. Sorry.
What sort of things do you like to pass the time?
I am on holidays at the moment. Reading and doing nothing are my go-to. And podcasts, music...

Right now, my pastimes include walking and... not much else. The more I become aware of my present circumstances, the more I look to a future separate from my parents. Taking long walks far from my parents’ home helps in the self-reflective process, as I am able to think clearly and independently as myself, without the long-since-expired childhood attachments to Mum and Dad. Any opportunity for even a little taste of true adult independence is most welcome. Basically, to get my life on track, I need to follow my own path, which for now is taken in a literal capacity.
Plus, the sights and sounds of the places I visit provide an abundance of inspiration for my writing. Nature and exploration provide a form of catharsis and strength that cannot be found when tied down by family, obligations, and constant reminders (well, lies) of “you cannot”.

That's a good way of putting it, I never thought of that.
That's good you could talk to your Mum.
