  • Mia’s “miracle”

    A little blind girl called Mia sees a pig in the distance… It’s a miracle say some of the comments https://www.instagram.com/reel/DOgzqM8iK9-/?igsh=MTdmNzd5MW13czFxaA== The screenshot below is the pig that Mia “sees” She asks “how can I see him?” Her mum doesn’t know.

  • Remembering how it was 5 years ago

    Facebook memory from 24/2/2019 https://youtu.be/XyYBlJY3LbM?si=O1WV0zG4-McYM5cX Just watched this video and love it So yes I found this video fascinating and loved learning Emily’s point of view

  • The Singing bridge

    A wide concrete pedestrian walkway along a waterfront under a clear blue sky. On the left side of the walkway, there is a sturdy concrete barrier followed by a fence with narrow vertical posts.

  • Creativity incoming

    In my last post I wrote about starting my latest project… here’s the link if you need it… https://wasthatadinosaurcouk.uk/2025/07/22/oops-i-did-it-again/ So how am I doing.

  • Oops I did it again

    “What happened to the projects I was quilting?” I hear you ask… I am currently unpicking the quilting in the tumblers quilt as messed up a bit in the preparation (more haste, less speed is sage advice still)… And my monkey wrench quilts are stalled currently too while I work out techniques to quilt them…

  • After 40 minutes in a helltube (MRI)

    Today a friend from church came to be my human guide dog when I had to go for an MRI. It was a repeat of my previous one that confirmed I have a brain and knackered optic nerves (20 minutes of noisy claustrophobia) with a 2nd set to check if I have a spine (another…

  • Confident Cane User

    Currently on Twitter a wilfully ignorant person is sharing a TikTok video of a confident white cane user crossing a busy road on a pelican crossing and then consulting their phone. The video has a caption that reads “What in the universal credit is going on here?” The tweet itself reads “It’s a miracle” The…

  • Two thirds of my life

    September has been Hell Month since my dad died two thirds of my life ago. Since then September has become a car crash of sad anniversaries and I usually end up spiralling into a grief funk. This year I’ve called it Sewvember and the photo collage below shows what I’ve achieved so far this month.…

  • How I describe myself.

    My first post since I ran out of data in my old free blog. I love today’s daily prompt question. It’s somehow appropriate since I’m someone who cannot see except as blurs or pops of colour. How would you describe yourself to someone who can’t see you? Since unless it’s 4 inches from my nose…
