Goals of 2020

I have yet to write a post this year, and it's almost March! I think it would be a good time to put out my goals of this year, and with my birthday in a week, I figured this would be a good time to do it!

 Goals of 2020 (but in no means in order, and I will be ok if it doesn't happen this year. I am putting it out in the world so it CAN happen!)
  • SAVE MONEY!
  • travel to a place I have been (affordable).
  • Write in this blog MORE. I need to get my experiences out there.
  • GET HEALTHIER THROUGH DIET. Join my journey as I hope to write and document it.
  • Set up an Avon get together, and hopefully make that part successful.
  • Sign up for Dog grooming seminars.
  • GO BACK TO SCHOOL.
  • Relearn an instrument. 
Will this all happen this year? Maybe not, but one little baby step at a time, and I am sure I will get there! 

xoxo,

Independence

Alright, you guys. I am going to get REAL with you guys on this post.  I was sitting down today, my day off, and looking around me thinking, "man, as a 26-year-old woman, I am seeing people much younger than me living such independent lives compared to me." It hit me, we are all on different life paths, with different problems, and different situations. I personally have not really "experienced" life on my own. I have lived with family members all my life and would LOVE to be on my own. I have worked, done some college, traveled, and a few other things while I am at home or with family. I have done things to try to improve my personal situation, but I have my reasons, and I want to share my reasons for living at home up to this point. I was diagnosed very young, about 8 years old, maybe nine, with Aspergers. Although I am considered high functioning, I have my had my fair share of difficulties associated with it. When I tell people that I am an Aspie, I usually ...

Seeking Help as an Adult

Growing up, getting the help I needed for my disability was readily available. I was always under the illusion that college would be great for people with disabilities, that people won't discriminate during the application or hiring process. I quickly learned that that is not the case. At all. Once I turned 18, the real world hit me, and hit me hard. To get the help I needed in school/ college I had to jump through hoops, and go through confusing (for me) mazes just to receive minute help. It was extremely overwhelming, and a lot of work, and because of that, I did not complete college  I would love to go back, and have assistance on so many things. However, that's not usually the case for adults. Another hard decision I have come to in my life is to either lie, or completely not say, is that I never say I have a disability. I have lost opportunities, jobs, and so much more because jobs, businesses, places of employment see the disability, and not me. Which means, I have be...

Employment

I sat down today after my vacation to read an article about employment, and it caught my attention immediately! I read it over at 'The Mighty' website, and I linked it right here for you guys to read if you want:  https://themighty.com/2017/09/tips-for-hiring-an-employee-with-autism/ What got to me in the article is that less than a third of people who have Asperger's are employed. That does not surprise me because it took me forever to find a job. When I did get my first job, I had a very difficult time, and in fact still, do struggle at my current job. It is difficult because of the smells, the noise, and the constant talking to people that really drain me. I am very sensitive to lights, smells, people and noises, and grooming dogs is probably not the best environment for someone with Asperger's. Could I be in a better grooming environment with my diagnosis? I am sure, but I have yet to find one. One thing I feel like that could have helped me from the very be...
