#Toddlerlife Becomes #LittleManLife
Since the star of #Toddlerlife is now four, it’s only appropriate I change the name of my series to #LittleManLife. I realise it’s been absolutely ages since I shared a post in this series and I apologise, I’m shit, I know. But, if you’ve been waiting for it, or never seen a #Toddlerlife post before,…
My First Love, The Ableist
Content Warning: Sex, ableism I’ve been pondering about writing this post for a while and although I’ve wanted to get it out there, I was also really wary about reliving this period of my life as it wasn’t the best. At the time, I thought it was perfect, I believed it was how relationships went…

Trialling Glasses At Home and Buying Online with Glasses Direct
At the end of January I went for my routine two yearly eye test and shocker, my prescription had changed. I was expecting it but it was such a drastic change that I was told I’d need to have my lenses thinned, which added another chunk of money onto my already expensive frames. I’d not…
