Share Your World – April 17, 2017
When writing by hand do you prefer to use a pencil or pen?
Probably pencil since it has an eraser but due to past carpal tunnel syndrome and arthritis my handwriting is illegible. My handwriting could be the but of those doctor handwriting jokes. Back when doctors used to write paper prescriptions. In New York doctors usually no longer write paper prescriptions as per a New York State Law requiring all prescriptions to be submitted directly to the patients pharmacy via computer.
Would you rather be an amazing dancer or an amazing singer?
Dancer. I admire the Nicholas Brothers, Gregory Hines and Savion Glover.
If you were on a debate team, what subject would you relish debating?
That’s a difficult question to answer. I used to be good at public speaking because it was a requirement of my previous job. Now you could not get me up on a podium unless you paid me $1 Million dollars. Nerves, anxiety and panic attacks would have me running off the stage, then again that would make a good topic, “Why I suck at public speaking.”
The only other subject I could discuss without appearing to be a complete idiot or fool would be on the subject of Autism, my relationship with my brother Stephen and Why Adult Siblings of Autistic Adults Matter. Autism programs, services and organizations only cater to parents and once the parents are deceased and the individual with Autism is an Adult you are forgotten as well as the needs of Adult Siblings which are not addressed. There is a serious Lack of Support Services for Adult Siblings trying to take of their developmentally disabled siblings. My Life is a constant Struggle.
What are you a “natural” at doing?
Writing and photography.
Optional Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?
Warm weather. Looking forward to my vacation next month and summer.
Espiritu en Fuego/A Fiery Spirit 
Love the dancing in old films!
Thanks. Yes Tap Dance is truly an art form. Don’t see much of it anymore but these gentlemen were and are the Greats!!
Every time I read your posts, I truly admire you more and more. What you have spoken about autism is true and I agree with you completely. And btw, I wish I could be an amazing dancer too 😀
Thanks for your support.
Oh, to be able to dance like that…..!!
Yes. They are very limber and flexible.
I so enjoyed taking a break and watching your dancing videos. Gregory Hines is one of my favorites. 😀 Thanks ever so much for sharing and participating this week. I really enjoyed reading your answers.
Thanks!! I’m about to trip the light fantastic to my job!! LOL!! Always happy to participate!! 🙂 😀 ❤
I loved White Nights and you are right about support systems for families of adults with disabilites. We have along way to go.
Thanks. I Love my brother Stephen dearly and would do anything for him. Stephen is truly a blessing. It’s the system that is broken. The laws have not kept up with the times nor has available support for families especially siblings. I really appreciate your feedback.
You are right and extended family (at least in my experience) is not what it once was to help. Our world is so busy and we are all running in so many directions…
I was grateful to be on Spring Break. And I am grateful to being going back to work. I actually like my class!!
Oh of course I’m happy that Nate was home for Easter Dinner!!
Wonderful! ♡ ☆ Fabulous! ♡ ☆
I’m happy to say that the first week in May Stephen will be coming over to celebrate his 56th birthday which is May 3rd.
Getting my vacation next month. The first week I will spend with Stephen and the second week is for me.
