@snaptophobic I don't have the hand-eye coordination to deal with tiny stuff like that.

Observation of the day: #OHC #Covid19 tests are *not* very accessible either for #blind or #dyspraxic users. All those tiny parts, so the dyspraxic me was struggling to hold the extractor steady while doing all the other stuff, and the test takes 15 minutes, so unless you have a *bunch* of minutes for Aira or something, you're using up a *bunch* of time figuring out how the thing works. I certainly wouldn't recommend them for #NeurodivergentBlind people. @neurodivergentblind

Some days, as a mother to a combination of #Dyspraxic #Autistic #ADHD kids, I feel like all I do is clean up one giant spill after another. Todays best spill was a whole bowl of pancake batter that got knocked over so violently that the batter went between the 2 parallel sheets of glass in the oven and into all the little nooks behind knobs.

And oh the cost of all those lost ingredients hurts (gluten free flour is SO dear).

Me to my daughter after she bangs her head for the 5th time this morning.... "You are really having a dyspraxic day today".

Daughter: "Every day is a dyspraxic day when you are dyspraxic"

Describing spaces is an ingrown nail of a topic. When I close my eyes, there's an occasional ethereal outline that *might* be an environment, but other than that, nothing. As I'm #dyspraxic (#dyspraxia), I have a poor grasp of visual space, and can't describe it beyond the basics unless there are references in front of me. At that point, I feel like I'm tracing.

Bad news that the Dyspraxia Foundation is winding down its activities and closing, due to lack of £.

I'm coming to realize, I absolutely *cannot* move quickly at all if I don't want anything to go wrong. A mix of being #ActuallyAutistic plus #Dyspraxic means that I can't always catch if something is at risk of falling, and can't always catch it if it does. #Phiaton #Bonobuds are troopers! They survived a puppy trying to make a chew toy out of them. From now on, *any* standing up I do is going to *start* with a positional assessment of *everything* in my immediate vacinity. The reality I am coming to accept is that no, I can't just move in an instant. #Dyspraxia sucks, and trying to push around it just leads to problems.

Asking on behalf of someone close to me, does anyone who is #dyspraxia / #Dyspraxic / #dyspraxiclife. Have any advice for learning to drive (uk)? They are dyspraxic themselves and struggle with things like road markings and other things changing suddenly, focusing on road signs and other related issues? They are learning with an automatic and beyond learning over a longer period what has worked for you? Links welcome.

We're looking for #dyspraxic children and adolescents in Devon to help us validate a newly-developed virtual reality screening tool. Participants get a MABC-2 screening, compensation for their time (£30), and the chance to play some cool newly-developed VR games.
