Listen to this post as a podcast episode. Accessibility by Iris Carden One of my pet peeves at the moment is accessibility, or rather the lack thereof. Many of the smaller shopping centres in my city, I’m thinking the type that open out on to a parking lot, have dips in the edge of the…… Continue reading Accessibility

Tired
Tired post by Iris Carden One thing about living with lupus is that anything that takes any amount of energy takes time to recover. I’ve been tired all week, because I went to the zoo just over a week ago. My daughter and I bought annual passes for whenever we’re looking after my granddaughter (my…… Continue reading Tired
Five Hundred Posts
Five Hundred Posts by Iris Carden This is my five hundredth post. From the start of this project, my plan was to publish every day, and so far I’ve been able to keep that up.

Happy Easter

For both Christians and non-Christians here in Australia, it’s also a day we tend to spend time with family and exchange Easter eggs. Typically Easter eggs are egg-shaped chocolate. Sometimes they’re rabbit-shaped or…… Continue reading Happy Easter
