Hi
Hi everyone, my name is Zec and I haven't been very active on here for the past couple of years, so thought I would say hello.
I am even worse than usual due to getting Covid, I messed up and forgot my mask when I went out and I am angry at myself because I rarely go out!
I have ME, I am a full time wheelchair user after many knee surgeries left me worse off.
I blog to eat up some of the endless hours in the day and I review products, and last year I started a bi-weekly live stream about disability with Mik Scarlet.
I cannot wait for spring so I can get out in the garden, that is where I am happiest, and I will happily do the gardening in exchange for a flare up!
Like many of you I am struggling mentally and that is being made worse with the massive rise in energy prices, it scares me as it is simply unaffordable and I keep hoping it will be sorted but I don't those in power really care.

Hello there @Zec Richardson and welcome to the community, thanks for joining and sharing a bit about yourself
Both your blog and live stream with Mik sound really interesting, I hope you can share some of the topics to chat about here on the forum.
Although I'm not a gardener I do appreciate time in the garden, or just being outside, so I'm very much looking forward to spring arriving too!
Energy prices are certainly a worry for a lot of people, especially here on the community. Scope has a free advice service called Disability Energy Support, please do take a look if you feel it might be helpful.
