Fun Question for Everyone:

What was your first special interest? Funniest one?

I think this is going to be hilarious so please share. For me I honestly have no idea but it was probably Dora the Explorer. Of course we didn’t have cable in those days so I watched the same 2 episodes on vhs over and over and over and had to get my “backpack” before my parents started the tape and if I couldn’t find it in time I would freak out lol. I watched Dora more casually until I was pretty old too- like 8 or 9- until a “friend” dissed it in front of me saying that it was boring and just the same thing over and over again.

I was also obsessed with a dvd of Bear in the Big Blue House at one point. The goodbye song still gives me warm fuzzies lol.

My funniest childhood obsession was probably acorns when I was four or five. I had a huge bag of acorns that I wanted to carry everywhere and loved to sort them and collect them and hold them and stare at them lol.

Free App Alert- Time Timer Mobile (iOS and android)

The official Time Timer app has temporarily gone free due to the pandemic. Analogous to the physical time timers. It is available for iOS (separate iPhone and iPad versions) and on the google play store.

SPD & Peripheral Vision

What are your experiences with sensory issues/autism affecting your peripheral vision?

I’ve been having more issues with getting hit in the face or tripping bc I can’t see things until they’re right in my face.

Can’t tell if this is normal or just an SPD thing. I last got my eyes checked in August but haven’t had a peripheral screening (sticking out hands) in a long time.
