The Joy of Dyslexia on Holiday
On my way to Cornwall on Friday we went in to a service station to get a coffee out of a machine it was all reading to get a coffee why can’t they make it audio too.
The Budget
It’s refreshing in the budget that they are helping small businesses to grow and it gives the chance for entrepreneurs to reach their full potential. Specially dyslexic entrepreneurs get those companies created and while we are creating businesses we are helping our great country once more. A great saying, ( it’s not what your country can do few it’s what you can do for your country)
Working out the Alphabet
Over the weekend I was working on the Big Event in Margate in my signing company. I had to put up the letters of the alphabet on every lamp column the area was in zones for safety purposes. It was a challenge to get them into the correct order but it all worked out okay in the end dyslexia challenges you every moment of the day but you can always get round it.
3 days of having a stomach bug
3 days of having a stomach bug getting really fed up with it now.
Watched Avatar last night
Watched Avatar last night, a fantastic film but doesn’t it get spoilt for a dyslexic person when the subtitles come up. You would think with all this technology we have they could sort something out so it could be read to you may be through your telephone.
Slightly early births linked to dyslexia
A interesting bit of reading on dyslexia http://ow.ly/1WUxG
Summing up of my experiment
Drinking more water over the last 2 weeks have definitely made a difference to my brain because I have had no brain fog it has made it so much easier to concentrate on reading which is being easier for me.
Assume
I had explained to me today why assume makes a ASS out of U and ME means ass u me it was like a lightbulb coming on in my head oh the joys of dyslexia.
The Daily Dyslexic Battle
Last night I watched Lord of the Rings I’m sure you have seen a film. The thing it reminded me of with dyslexia it can take ages to get to the place you want to get to with your reading and writing and you sometimes fall down like they did time and time again in the film. But they always found the energy from somewhere to get back up all their friends help them to achieve their goals. What I’m trying to say is that because we struggle with dyslexia to get to our goals there is always something there to help you, like reading and writing software or somebody to tell you that elusive word you are struggling with.
Day 9,10 and 11 of my Experiment
I think the biggest thing about drinking more water a day is the brain is so much sharper and it is definitely easier to read.
