i have just spent my afternoon sorting out my weekly routine now that university is back in session.
Most of Wednesday I will be online for lectures from from 1:30 to 4:30 in the afternoon, then again from 5:30 to 7:30 in the evening. I normally eat at 5, so that gap in the middle is non-negotiable, and I will be honest, the evening stretch after dinner is going to require some deliberate energy management on my part.

Saturdays I will be online from 3:30 to 5:00 in the afternoon, which is a much more manageable block and feels like a gentler way to end the weekend. and of course, there are assessments to do in between all that.

I am sitting in the sun, letting the warmth settle into me while a slight breeze moves across my skin, carrying the faint clean scent of mint from the plant to my right. The soft, steady hum of traffic drifts past in the background. Today I needed this more than I can easily explain.

This morning my doctor cancelled her appointment, then changed her mind and said she could make it after all. I had already mentally released the day and reorganised around Thursday, so when the reversal came I found myself more unsettled than the situation probably warranted. Unexpected changes like that disrupt something deeper than just the schedule. My nervous system had already mapped the day a certain way, and a sudden shift, even a minor one, requires a kind of internal recalibration that is genuinely exhausting. I chose Thursday anyway, on my own terms, which helped. The unsettled feeling still took time to pass, which is why I am out here now.

It has me thinking about something I have been sitting with lately. Reality does not care about our plans, our carefully built illusions, or the stories we tell ourselves to feel safe. There is a particular kind of shock that comes when life closes the gap between what we expected and what actually is, and it does so entirely on its own timeline, not ours.

I am not convinced the answer is stripping away every layer of protection and standing completely exposed. I think the real work is building enough internal ground to tolerate what is real without being destroyed by it. That process is slower and more painful than avoidance, but there is clarity on the other side that no illusion ever provided. At least, that has been true in my own experience.

#PorvooPride on tehnyt yhteistyötä Disability Priden kanssa, että tapahtuma olisi #esteetön.

Esim. kulkueen vauhtia hidastetaan, tulee vaihtoehtoisia reittejä, ja välillä kulkue pysähtelee eri paikkoihin, joissa on sitten jotain ohjelmaa.

Tapahtuma järjestetään tänä vuonna 10. - 16.8.

Ruhe vor dem Sturm? 🌪️

Ein seltener Moment der Stille während unseres gestrigen kleinen Shootings. Ich habe mich in die Ecke zurückgezogen, um meine Rede für den morgigen Protest für die Gleichstellung von Menschen mit Behinderung nochmal durchzulesen. ⬇️
