I haven’t ever been diagnosed with ADHD, but part of the program is my Bipolar. A ton of the symptoms fit within the same realm as Bipolar and doctors don’t like over diagnosing… I’ve been watching the ADHD TikTok a bunch lately and sometimes you just have those “ah ha” moments. Where things really justContinue reading “ADHD”

Insomnia
Sleep has been a problem for most of my life. I don’t have insurance right now so I can’t really get a sleep study done. One of the many joys of the health care system in the United States. Gamble with your health or risk all your funds on a cold. YAY~! I suppose itContinue reading “Insomnia”
Tiny Chaos
So I’ve shared pictures of the chocolate shoppe before. I worked a little on that today. Put the sign and it’s hanger up on the building. Glued some of the treats into the case and fastened the cookies into their boxes. I really hate the wire chair and table that came with this set. TheyContinue reading “Tiny Chaos”
Sunday Best
I wish I was feeling good. I’m going to try and take a walk today. That summer heat really just has been kicking my butt. Felt horrible yesterday. Been combating blood sugar problems and then the heat during karate class really hit me hard. Got really dizzy and tired. I really love this song andContinue reading “Sunday Best”
Our Mental Health Journey
Sometimes mental health care is like being stuck in a canoe by yourself. You’re paddling and paddling, and you’re just turning in circles. You might need someone in the canoe with you to help you get moving. Whether than be a therapist or doctor. Sometimes you feel like jumping out of the boat is betterContinue reading “Our Mental Health Journey”
The Neverending Story
This was one of my favorite movies as a child. It was made the year I was born! So I suppose it’s like my theme movie. Imagination! Dreams! The Nothing… Oh man, the Nothing is a real struggle for me. And BOOKS! Wow, I love books. When my ex-husband and I separated, I ended upContinue reading “The Neverending Story”
Snacko Board Breakdown
I posted a few days ago about charcuterie boards. In French tradition, the charcuterie ( (pronounced “shahr-ku-tuh-ree” ) is the art of preparing and assembling cured meats and meat products. Essentially, this is meats’ response to a cheese board. And I’m not one to complain. Boards have become a huge trend. And I mean, whyContinue reading “Snacko Board Breakdown”
The Best Laid Plans
Everything is going according to plans… Have you ever let someone that’s neurodivergent plan something? It’s an amazing and frightening thing all melded together. My brain is often like an internet browser with fifty tabs open. Some of them have music playing and I have no idea which ones they are. Strangely, I feel someContinue reading “The Best Laid Plans”
Frowns All Around
Poor Mood Octopus has been stuck in the angry position the last few days. It’s hard to pretend to be in a good mood for outward appearances. Like going to karate, eating out, and hitting the card shop with my bonus daughter. Keeping the “happy” mask on when you’re around people can be really difficult.Continue reading “Frowns All Around”
Tropical Storm Fred and Me
I was looking at the weather website and noticed this. I can’t help but sometimes wonder if they realize how much power a name gives something? Obviously, my 80’s baby brain goes to Fred Flintstone. Yabba Dabba Doo~! Fred sliding in on that dinosaur tail. I used to love that show as a kid. EvenContinue reading “Tropical Storm Fred and Me”
