I discovered Friendly Fill-Ins already over a year ago, but rarely joined in. Especially since I stopped using my old PC, it was hard, because I couldn’t copy the questions on my iPhone and my Mac was giving me a pain too. Now I’m trying to get used to my new PC and am learning to write blog posts on it too. It is lovely. Today, I’m joining in with Friendly Fill-Ins week #167. Here are the questions.
- If I had ________________, I would _________________________.
- ___________________ sparks my creativity.
- _________ keeps me up at night.
- I only just recently learned _________.
My Answers
1. If I had a lot of money, I would get myself my very own sensory room. My husband has said that, if he ever wins the lottery, he’ll give me my own fully furnished snoezelen® room. Not that he ever plays in the lottery and neither do I. I already have a lot of sensory equipment, but I’m discovering new stuff almost on a daily basis.
2. Discovering writing challenges and journaling prompts sparks my creativity. Not that I’m very creative at all. I always plan to soon write some poem or piece of flash fiction, but I never get to it. I love to freewrite, but somehow, I feel held back in doing so. As such, journaling prompts and writing challenges do help me.
3. The heat keeps me up at night. At least right now. Although I must say, when my husband leaves the house at 5AM and I try to go back to sleep, I often shiver if the fan is still on and the window open.
4. I only just recently learned about what’s involved when you’re buying a house. As regular readers may know, my husband and I saw a house we may want to buy last week. Well, technically my husband saw it, as he visited it right out of work, and I accepted his description at face value. I am not sure I’m allowed to disclose this on my blog, but we reached an agreement with the seller on a price and are now working out the details of the contract. I have no idea about such things as finding a solicitor, getting a mortgage and all that. As a side note, the house is too small for me to have my own room, let alone a sensory room. However, since I’ll hopefully move into a care facility sometime in the not-too-distant future, I’m just hoping I’ll be able to use the facility’s sensory room.
Awesome answers! I hope you can use the sensory room at the new care facility! I know how much you love those type of rooms!

I love the idea of your own, personal sensory room. Would be happy with something like that myself too, I’ve been only once to a proper and fully equipped Snoezelen room and loved it loooads! I hope that once you move in to the long term care facility you will be able to use their sensory room a lot. 🙂

Thank you for joining in on the Friendly Fill-Ins, and I’m sorry I’m so late to visit! I have never heard of a sensory room, but it sounds incredibly intriguing. I remember when I bought my house, and how much I learned in the process. You’ll get there, and with lots more knowledge. Lots of luck to you!
