I actually stuck to my to-do-list today! Called clients, did my business taxes. yuck. Did the budget, double yuck. Now I realize I'm even poorer than I thought.
Mood: Happy
Appetite: Not starving - no sugar today!
Vitamins: Yep
Have you ever seen the shoes on http://www.sofftshoes.com/? OMG, they are so sophisticated and gorgeous. To die for. I may be poor, but they are gonna be on my wishlist.
How many times can you watch "The Three Little Pigs" and maintain your sanity? But since I'm not frustrated by not accomplishing anything today, I have more patience. Tune it out, tune it out. I've heard that some people with ADD get sensory overload and it's very frustrating. How I envy those who can hear the three piggies screaming at the big bad wolf, balance the checkbook, prepare dinner, and lovingly answer repeated questions from the kids - "when do I get my allowance? How much will it be? $5? I think $5. Five's good, okay???"
Any moms out there with ADD? We haven't figured out if I really have it, but I think I might. A mild version. I don't know if it's hormonal or if I'm just aging and slowly losing brain cells, but it's so hard to accomplish anything!! I only have two kids (god bless you mothers of many; I don't know how you do it) but the distraction of children gets me off course. I lose my keys almost daily. My dear husband is trying to train me with positive reinforcement to hang them on a hook by the door, even clapping for me when I succeed and don't put them in my coat pocket, on the washer, our dresser, in the microwave. It's demeaning, but working. I've lost my glasses - $300 down the drain. No idea where I left them. Absolutely none. All John can do is sigh. He's especially freaked out by the fact that I just throw cash and credit cards into my purse when I'm in a hurry instead of putting it in my wallet. We have termed my problem "object displacement disorder." It seems to fit.
More on ADD later.
I bet we will find the glasses eventually. Probably in a coat pocket somewhere or in some random place :)
