We'll probably have a few false springs and some more wintery weather. We have the saying "april doet wat ie wil" (april does whatever it likes) for a reason. Not likely full on blizzards though, brrr. I do have protective earplugs, the type aimed at musicians to protect their hearing. It's silocone too, but with a filter. I love them, but they're a bit much for most circumstances. But I do love my music, and I've opted for earphones that aren't noice cancelling. Recently I've been working on rebuilding a music collection away from alghorythms (partly in the form of cds, but largely buying digital albums), it's a slow process, not the instant gratification of streaming platforms, but I'm finding it very rewarding. I find it very interesting what you're saying about other senses picking up, because I kind of have experience with the opposite. Both my previous and current flat are in a noisy environment, but this one is way more insulated. And I think my hearing must have started automatically going down, to make up for being unable to filter. And when I moved here I felt like it was completely silent inside, specially compared to with having the doors and windows open. Now it's been a while and I can hear all the noise from outside just fine, just muffled. Thank you for sharing your perspective, it's fascinating!]]> Unknown user https://www.snapdragonlife.com/news/blog/being-fully-where-you-are/#comment1193 Fri, 27 Feb 2026 20:55:11 +0000 https://www.snapdragonlife.com/news/blog/being-fully-where-you-are/#comment1192 Unknown user https://www.snapdragonlife.com/news/blog/being-fully-where-you-are/#comment1192 Fri, 27 Feb 2026 20:54:23 +0000 https://www.snapdragonlife.com/news/blog/being-fully-where-you-are/#comment1191 In reply to Logan SmallegangeAs a person with invisible disability & often use silicon earplugs that autistic kids utilize to manage sensory overload, this has also been interesting. Blocking out so much sound (I don't have noise cancelling headphones) lets my brain "breathe".. Before my TBI, I volunteered doing narration for Perkins Talking Book Library. I LOVED being in a sound proof booth for recording. Now, I'm able to observe that "thing" that is referred to when you are missing one sensory input that the others increase to give the feedback to the brain. When light &/or motion sensitivity become issues, wearing sunglasses or tinted lenses and slowing way down my walking pace, again. It's either bizarre or interesting from a neurocog point of view. It's a hassle when in an overstim American environment (most public places except libraries.) however, I have a unique perspective now as a former Surgical Physician's Assistant about what it means to manage neurological symptoms especially when everyone thinks you're completely able bodied. I'm happy that you are here in the community. Thank you for sharing your experiences! Envious of your t-shirt weather, we just had major blizzard in Boston, MA/the States. Sunshine today. Walking along the river this morning, I thought about all the daffodil bulbs that will come up in the spring that I can go around and deadhead and try out the dyeing Jane demonstrated earlier. So grateful that somehow the YouTube algorithm from Sean the Sheepman in Scotland put Jane into my feed!!!

It can be a struggle, but I for the most part I really don't mind it. I do bring my phone everywhere (just in case, 90s kid), but most of the time I'm either on my ebike or using my wheelchair, either way I have to stop to use my phone. And I tend to only wear one earphone, and only with the music that lives on my phone, it's more to shelter me from sensory overload than anything else. In the forest I often put them away. I live in a very old town, and I've only lived here for 2,5 years, there's plenty still to discover in the town centre alone.]]> Unknown user https://www.snapdragonlife.com/news/blog/being-fully-where-you-are/#comment1190 Fri, 27 Feb 2026 16:57:56 +0000 https://www.snapdragonlife.com/news/blog/being-fully-where-you-are/#comment1189 Unknown user https://www.snapdragonlife.com/news/blog/being-fully-where-you-are/#comment1189 Fri, 27 Feb 2026 16:47:37 +0000 https://www.snapdragonlife.com/news/blog/being-fully-where-you-are/#comment1188 In reply to Logan SmallegangeThanks Logan - that's exactly what I mean - you find lots of replenishing things to do, exactly where you live.
