ADHD.... and I'm your MOM

So....

I decided to start up a blog... to get my "feelings out"... if you are reading this, you must like a good murder mystery, comedy, romance, life skills book, with a little self-help, archiac, medievil spirit twist added...

Why? you may ask? Why would you need to like all of these books.... because, I... 36 year old ME, have ADHD. I find that ADHD label hilarious, if you look it up on the internet, or in a book it will tell you that I can't watch a tv program or read a book, it will tell you that I am a boy, age 5-7, it will tell you that I am a miriad of things that I am not... but I will tell you the truth of it...

ADHD stands for Attention Does Herpes Dissatisfy?..... EXACTLY! It means, that on a 3 minute scale, I can switch topics, forget what I am talking about, ask you questions, demand your silence, cry like a baby and yup, you guessed it, lose my attention to whatever I am saying....

So hold on tight... this is going to be.......................

Wait... that last paragraph makes no sense! Well it does to ME... but probably not to you.... ok... using my life skills (coping with a constantly wandering mind) training I will attempt to make it make sense to you....

I don't concentrate well. Well, that is a lie... I totally concentrate well, for a minute or two, on a subject or 8.... CONSTANTLY.

I am raising kids.... or at least pulling strings that OCCASIONALLY connect to the children, er... ummmm, young adults, and occasionally they just pull my sweater into a bikini top... which, believe me.... NOBODY wants to see.

My kids are teenagers... and had anyone told me what THIS would be like, I woulda stepped outta line on that one... CONSISTENCY is the key with kids... try THAT with ADHD.... I can't remember to wash my hands after I use the bathroom half the time..... don't worry, within 3 minutes I REMEMBER... and provided I am not serving you food at the time, I will go back and wash them... I mean, once I have touched the food, what's the point....

but I digress....

I'm inviting you into the world of my making... crazy, up and down, topsy turvy me... topsy turvy... who the hell came up with that expression? it is stupid.

Sometimes I will make sense... other times, not so much... but.... I MAY keep on track... perhaps.
