Day 960: My Favourite Blogs 2013

“Reading is the sole means by which we slip, involuntarily, often helplessly, into another’s skin, another’s voice, another’s soul.” — Joyce Carol Oates

It’s  4  : 27 PM on day 960 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to stretch my hamstrings, take off my dirty shirt and put on a clean t-shirt – I hate whoever created buttons it took me ages to get dressed – brush my teeth, feed myself Bran Flakes for breakfast,   practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles, pray, read Numbers 13,  publish my Disability of the Day feature and  practice typing with both hands.

As you may know I love reading other people’s blogs and since I believe everything’s better when you share it I thought I’d share with you some of my favourite blogs. Take a look:
