I am recently diagnosed after a life under the "mental health umbrella" a life spent mostly reclusive with only my dog and my art to console me and a close companion of 30 yrs. its been lonely and my life has left me feeling "weird" socially awkard and very difficult.
A place for my thoughts to pile up. Anything from latest happenings, to happy moments, to venting struggles. Pretty good mixture I hope.

When I was a child, I collected Lego until my parents banned me from buying more at age 12. When I was 24 and had money I realised I was an adult and could buy what I liked with my money, so I started collecting Lego again. The first set I bought was the last 2 copies of a Ninja castle from...
