Mulla on ulko-oven nurkassa vara-keppi. Kokeilin huvikseni kepin kahvan tuntumaa. Edellisestä kerrasta on jo aikaa.

Kahva ei tuntunut enää hyvältä kädessä. Sen silikonipinta on alkanut lähmääntyä ja tarttua ihoon kiinni kuin huono tarra. Taitaa olla niin, että keppi joutaa roskiin. 🦯🪦

The image is a photo booth collage with four separate pictures featuring a group of people in front of a floral backdrop. Each photo shows the individuals wearing various props like hats, crowns, and holding signs and novelty items, creating a playful and festive atmosphere. The background is a pattern of large pink and white flowers. The collage is set on a wooden plank background with decorative chandeliers and string lights at the top. At the bottom, the names "Lauren & Kyle" along with the date "03.30.2025" are written in white decorative script in front of each photo pair.

A digital drawing of a light-skinned, plus-sized woman with her plum-coloured hair piled on top of her head. She is wearing a vibrant purple, strapless dress with a pastel purple ruffle. There is gold embroidery of roses and a flower on her skirt, and she is wearing a gold diadem. She is holding a folded up white cane for the blind, which is actually pastel purple too

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 yes, her white cane is technically a light purple cane, but it's for the aesthetic, right?

There are moments when I feel like I have imposters syndrome because I have LOW vision but not full vision loss. 👨‍🦯

Then there are all the other moments where I nearly run into people, almost hit myself downstairs on fire hydrants and
poles, and/or stumble/trip.

It's me! Be nice.
Photo taken at Disneyland California Adventure on Buena Vista St. I am standing in front of the large christmas tree. I am wearing a white beanie, a white jacket with black around the bottom of the sleeves and collar, a black tee shirt, dark slim jeans, and I am holding my white cane in my left hand. The cast member has me posed looking away from the camera like I am too good to even be here. I have a beard like most white dudes my age. Best for everyone to not see meclean shaven. Trust me. Hope I did not miss anything that should be described. Say hi if you ever run into me at the parks.

Photo of the Matterhorn on Sunday morning from the Alice in Wonderland attraction. The mountain is in tre middle of the photo reaching to the top of the image. There are trees all around the base of the faux snow covered peak. I am guessing the monorail track is visible. The sky is white and the sun is not fully up yet. I believe the photo is taken facing East. The Matterhorn is one of the few rides that I will not do. Too bumpy and I hate being startled by that fucking monster.

According to my watch I walked 13.5 mi this weekend. Mostly of it at Disneyland both mornings. Not too bad for a guy that can barely see. I did NOT:

👉🏼 get shoulder checked
👉🏼 trip/run into chains/rope
👉🏼 have to deal with lines.
