Day 551

You live in dysfunction for an extended period of time and pretty soon that becomes your normal – that’s what I learned today 🙁

It’s 4: 27 PM on day 551 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth,   feed myself a peanut butter sandwich for breakfast, drink tea by myself,  prepare and  publish my Disability of the Day feature, tweet about my 21 For 21 Campaign, prepare my Kid of the Week feature for tomorrow,  tweet some more about my campaign, answer a few questions for a blog post that I’m going to be featured in – I’ll probably tweet the link to the blog post when it is published so keep a look out – and continue tweeting about my campaign – for all my hard work two people promised to make donations better than nothing  I suppose 🙂

Today my father was calling my mother names and I just carried on doing what I was doing like they were having a casual conversation which disturbed me I guess it’s kind of like a drug addict building up a tolerance to drugs I have built up a tolerance to the environment I’m living in but that’s okay because I know that I know this is not normal. Has dysfunction become your normal?
