Good evening! Before I jump into today's topic, I feel like I should share that I have unintentionally created a habit of writing my blog posts late at night just before I go to sleep. Not ideal. Or maybe it is. It's cozy and quiet, and I enjoy the ritual of regurgitating some randomness from … Continue reading Strong Personalities in Friend Groups

It’s a Summer Miracle!
Okay, that's dramatic. But that's how it feels as I'm sitting down to write a blog post for the third day in a row. This one will be fast and furious because I need some sleep. Today was busy and hot. Have you ever noticed how people in the southern U.S. love to talk about … Continue reading It’s a Summer Miracle!
Why Do I Hate it So Much When People Say ‘Just Make it a Habit’? UGH!
I'm wide awake at an hour when I should be sleeping. We had pretty strong afternoon storms today and lost power for a couple of hours.

No expectations. … Continue reading Dream On

Couples With ADHD
Y'all. I swear. Some days all I can do is laugh...because really there are simply no words. Since I told you about my Lexapro flu in my last post, I'll pick up from there. I went for my three-week follow-up on Wednesday, and he convinced me to give Vyvanse another go. So far so good. … Continue reading Couples With ADHD
View From the Couch
So THIS happened over the weekend: Yes, friends, I jacked up my knee, so I'm practicing RICE. That's Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. I forget that I'm clinically hyper until something of this nature forces me to sit still for extended periods of time. This is day three of this RICE jazz and I am over … Continue reading View From the Couch
