Tim McTuffty<p>Diary of an ASD Squirrel. Day 520 , Monday 31/03/2025</p><p>Monday started just before 7am when a mix of Mrs S mooching around the house & the sun fighting its way thru the blinds woke me up.</p><p>Got breakfast & read for a little while with my coffee then cracked on with my chores.</p><p>Around 9am I finally got outside & the first job was to clamber up the ladder to fix a downspout on the guttering that had broken loose in the wind - the screw holding it in had worked itself loose so I had to re-drill the hole & use a bigger rawl-plug & a heavier screw to hold the fittings in place securely. </p><p>Having scared myself ½ to death (I don’t do heights very well anymore.) I spent 30 minutes or so cleaning some more gravel before I had to go & get ready to see the GP about my blood test results.<br>On the plus side every thing apart from my cholesterol levels were fine, the doctor I saw suggested trying some additional meds to try & keep it under control.</p><p>I need to get onto a healthier diet I think (he says having just ordered a pizza as a last birthday treat for Mrs S.P) but food is a coping strategy for me & my MH is still far from ideal. </p><p>I need to get out walking again as well soon, gotta fight the invisible wall that keeps me inside the house. </p><p>It doesn’t help that after an encounter with neighbours earlier in the year where they essentially judged me for not getting out of the house more I have that added level of anxiety too. It should get easier now with the lighter mornings, if I can get out immediately after breakfast then </p><p>Final Thoughts.</p><p>I need to get out walking again as well soon, gotta fight the invisible wall that keeps me inside. </p><p>It doesn’t help that after an encounter with neighbours earlier in the year where they essentially judged me for not getting out of the house more I have that added level of anxiety too. It should get easier now with the lighter mornings, if I can get out immediately after breakfast then I can avoid peopling.</p><p>I do seem to be going backwards at the moment though, although I am pleased that I managed to get that guttering fixed today.</p><p>Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways.

Maj1 THE Neuro Spicy Squirrel<p>Good evening Squirrel Fans. </p><p>There are a number of similarities in the fields of magic & computing - tonight’s quote could quite easily apply to either with a couple of minor adjustments! 😆 </p><p>“That’s what’s so stupid about the whole magic thing, you know.

Tim McTuffty<p>Diary of an ASD Squirrel. Day 519 , Sunday 30/03/2025</p><p>Sunday started at just gone 7, sorry 8am, the clocks nicking an hour from me & moving to BST. </p><p>Made breakfast & watched an episode of ‘Father Brown’ with my coffee then did some chores & went around the house putting the clocks fwd - those that didn’t automatically do so that is. </p><p>It’s not been a bad day weather wise, it started off a bit dull but the sun came out this afternoon.</p><p>I’d like to say that is has been a day of excitement & fabulous activities, but no, it was a normal Sunday of chilling out & watching some TV.</p><p>Final Thoughts.</p><p>Back to normal next week, Mrs S is back to work tomorrow.

Maj1 THE Neuro Spicy Squirrel<p>Good evening Squirrel Fans. </p><p>Alice mog has been a very needy varmint today wanting cuddles every ½ an hour or so, but just for a few minutes so it’s been hard for me to settle down & relax. <br>However, as this pTerry quote explains, the purrs get one every time!</p><p>“The purr is very important. It's the purr that does it every time. It's the purr that makes up for the Things Under the Bed, the occasional pungency, the 4 a.m. yowl. Other creatures went in for big teeth, long legs or over-active brains, while cats just settled for a noise that tells the world they're feeling happy.”<br>― Terry Pratchett, The Unadulterated Cat</p><p>Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, I hope you’re well & safe! 😊🫶:party_major_squirrel:🖖 </p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/weirdfolks" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>weirdfolks</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://beige.party/tags/WeirdFolks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WeirdFolks</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/SquirrelsOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SquirrelsOfMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/TheMammutMoves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheMammutMoves</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/CatsofMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CatsofMastodon</span></a> </p><p>For today’s diary update please follow <a href="https://beige.party/tags/TimsASDjourney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TimsASDjourney</span></a></p>
Tim McTuffty<p>Diary of an ASD Squirrel. Day 518 , Saturday 29/03/2025</p><p>Saturday started stupidly early at just after 6am when some noise or other woke me up.</p><p>I resisted the urge to get up & read for an hour until Mrs S got up then went down & made breakfast.<br>It was one of those days, I had to make my porridge twice because my first attempt was far too salty after I was a bit heavy handed with the salt cellar. </p><p>We had another fairly relaxed day, I read my book for a while this morning then I made us some scrambled eggs for lunch which made a nice change.</p><p>This afternoon was spent catching up on Mrs S’s TV shows & we had our tea watching the movie ‘Troy’ which we have managed not to see even though it’s 21 years old this year! <br>I rather enjoyed it but Mrs S found it a bit long.</p><p>Final Thoughts.</p><p>I need to try & get out & about again next week, I need to get back into the habit of a daily walk now the weather has perked up a bit.</p><p>I’m going to loose an hours sleep tomorrow because Mrs S will absolutely not let me lie in until 9am. I might squeeze an 08:30 lay in if I’m lucky though. </p><p>Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways.

Day 517 , Friday 28/03/2025</p><p>Friday started around 07:30, came down & got breakfast then did my chores.</p><p>Mrs S. went shopping & then went to see her mum so I had the house to myself for the morning.</p><p>Read a little, played a little NMS.</p><p>We watched ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ Robert De Niro & Leonardo DiCaprio were excellent as was Lily Gladstone - who was amazing. The movie was much too long though, at 3½ hrs.

I resolutely rolled over & tried to sleep but failed miserably, so I read my book until just gone 07:15 when Mrs S got up.</p><p>We had breakfast & I did a couple of chores & made us a packed lunch to take with us to Doncaster Wildlife Park.<br> <br>We left for our adventure around 09:30, wanting to give rush hour time to subside before setting off.</p><p>Afternoon an uneventful journey we finally got to the wildlife park & promptly got lost in that huge car park!</p><p>We have been to the Wildlife Park at Doncaster several times over the years since it started - it used to be so small, centred around a farmhouse & farmyard.</p><p>The last time we went, around 12 years ago it had grown quite a lot, they had just added the leopard enclosure & now the sapling conifers they had planted have grown to a decent height! </p><p>The park has pretty much doubled in size since then, & now houses otters (one of my favourites) rhinos, polar bears & a host of other creatures! </p><p>One of the polar bears, a male, is pining after the his love, who is currently separated from him because they are so hormonal, he alternated between calling for them & sulking in a corner looking very sorry for himself! </p><p>We also saw some tamarins (the cotton topped variety) who were cute as anything! <br>I only had my iPhone with me camera wise as I had forgotten to get new batteries for the SLR. The iPhone camera is great for low light & short to medium range photos but simply cannot compete with the SLR on long distance photos! </p><p>We managed to get around all the park by around 2pm , with about a 20 minute break for lunch, & enjoyed it enourmously. </p><p>We got home sometime after 3pm dan had a well earned coffee & piece of Mrs S’s birthday cake to accompany it.</p><p>We finished the day by starting ‘Vera’ from the beginning again & had a naughty fried chicken takeaway. </p><p>Final Thoughts.</p><p>A really good day, I think that it will all catch up with me tomorrow though, there was lots of people & noise & shouty kids.</p><p>Got a text from the GP saying they want me to make an appointment to discuss last weeks blood test results - well thats not ominous or anything! (Probably just my cholesterol levels, they are very focused on them at the moment!) </p><p>Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖 </p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/actuallyautistic" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>actuallyautistic</span></a></span><br><a href="https://beige.party/tags/TimsASDjourney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TimsASDjourney</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Neurospicy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Neurospicy</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/TheMammutMoves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheMammutMoves</span></a></p>

Maj1 THE Neuro Spicy Squirrel<p>Good evening Squirrel Fans. </p><p>Tonight’s quote is cultural for a change, covering as it does the difference between art & not art:</p><p>“He knew in his heart that spinning upside down around a pole wearing a costume you could floss with definitely was not Art, and being painted lying on a bed wearing nothing but a smile and a small bunch of grapes was good solid Art, but putting your finger on why this was the case was a bit tricky.”<br>― Terry Pratchett, Thud!</p><p>Off to put the theory that the pen is mightier than the burning cloth yard arrow to the test now. </p><p>Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, I hope you’re well & safe! 😊🫶:party_major_squirrel:🖖 </p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/weirdfolks" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>weirdfolks</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://beige.party/tags/WeirdFolks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WeirdFolks</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/SquirrelsOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SquirrelsOfMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/TheMammutMoves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheMammutMoves</span></a> </p><p>For today’s diary update please follow <a href="https://beige.party/tags/TimsASDjourney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TimsASDjourney</span></a></p>
Tim McTuffty<p>Diary of an ASD Squirrel. Day 514 , Tuesday 25/03/2025</p><p>Tuesday started around 7am.</p><p>Got breakfast & did the most critical chores then we went out for lunch at Chatsworth Farm Shop Cafe.</p><p>We ended up going a roundabout route to avoid a closed road, it ended up as a lovely run through the Derbyshire countryside with the sun beaming down on us most of the way.</p><p>Ended up having a roast pork lunch with all the trimmings, not something I often have & thus I enjoyed it very much!</p><p>Skipped desert & we went to the farm shop itself & stocked up on goodies. </p><p>The drive home was more direct but still quite picturesque.</p><p>We had coffee & cake this afternoon while watching Sky’s rendition of pTerry’s ‘Going Postal’.</p><p>We had a light meal for tea, I had a mini quiche & Mrs S a pancake thing she got from the farm shop.</p><p>Final Thoughts.</p><p>A really good day, although quite tiring. </p><p>Tomorrow will be a bigger challenge, Mrs S wants to spend the day at Doncaster Wildlife Park. We are taking a packed lunch & I’m going to give the new pair of sketchers trainers that I got at Christmas out for their first serious distance work. Hopefully the weather will be as kind as the current forecast suggests! </p><p>Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways.
