  • Ok, I’m calming down (and don’t have PTSD)

    Shortly after publishing the previous post I realised I actually did the right thing by not mentioning the issue I have with dresses on the radio show yesterday. So first I need to explain the situation with that ex colleague who made that unkind comment about me needing to shop for dresses in the tall…

  • I’m quitting (or just being dramatic)

    Well, I’m probably just being dramatic again, but then, I don’t know how else, for goodness sake, I am supposed to communicate with myself? And if I can’t communicate with myself, then how can I trust that I can communicate with other people? Yesterday I saw that post on Instagram by a fellow autistic Isabelladoautism…

  • I’m suffering from writing block

    I did notice recently that I get more and more confident with my posting – I can even write a blog post during a meltdown (which is a great exercise btw), but writing scripts for the radio feels like a totally different thing, I’m still in the uptight mode there! I wonder whether I will…

  • I coped on the show but I feel feel crap

    So, how the radio show worked was that we briefly discussed a subject when the music was playing and then repeated the same thing but in a more animated way when we were live. It looked like masking to me. It’s very funny because if I didn’t know much about autism I’d assume this is…

  • My big radio day

    Obviously I am probably exaggerating – the fact that I will be on a live radio programme is a big deal for me, but it probably shouldn’t take that much of my attention. The pressure to say all the right things may not be huge but it’s certainly there. I had my breakfast and will…

  • What is the time difference between Israel and the UK?

    Around two weeks ago I came across a post by an Israeli therapist who wanted to speak with autistic people who were diagnosed at least a few years ago. I volunteered and we agreed for a zoom interview for today. She asked if 10am will be ok for me and I said yes, but what…

  • Why is this in the last place?

    View this post on Instagram A post shared by Magda Z. (@sunday_kitzch) It’s been a while since I did a joke room on Redecor. For some reason though they almost always score really low. I don’t quite understand why? Everything is matching there and I even managed to cover bull’s head, yay!

  • There will be mass for me in Tabgha, Israel on Sunday morning

    Seriously, I’m not making this up! A few weeks ago I found, without even looking, Fabryka Opowieści, a company in Poland that specialises in business storytelling and I signed up to their newsletter. The owner, Monika Górska turned out to be very creative with her writing. A bit too creative possibly. Shortly after I signed…

  • Easter is coming and I have no family

    Yes, I still have my brother, but as you may remember, his alcoholism is very advanced. I mean, I have John, and our communication seems to really improved lately. Although he still doesn’t want me to reveal details about him on my blog (and I’m ok with that) he seems very supportive in general and…

  • I knew what to say in social situation!

    I had this really strange experience in the radio yesterday. I managed to do my recording in a presence of another person to give me the feeling that someone is actually listening, which did help a lot, and after that I was asked if I want to take part in live program next week and…
