focus, Focus, FOCUS!!
My ADHD brain has lost its way. In the last few days I have left a huge trail of destruction through the house, been unable to finish tasks, and have been daydreaming more than ever. Today was no different. I made a mistake that was so cringeworthy that I am hesitant to repeat it here […]

R. Kelly
I’ve been watching the Surviving R. Kelly documentaries the last few weeks. At the time all of his abuses were coming to light, I was sort of out of touch with it. My life was always kind of nuts in the early 2000s. I do recall hearing some of it and that no one believed […]

Summing up a life
The funeral was today. As expected, it was difficult. As an empathetic person, I felt sadness all around me. There were pictures of her scrolling on the tv the entire time. And wouldn’t you know it, every single picture of her with a birthday cake in front of her was all smiles of pure joy. […]

Family Dramas
Does anyone have a completely drama-free family? I don’t think so. There always seems to be that person or I guess people (in some families) that just can’t get it right. No matter what, they’re obnoxious. Whether they just want to be difficult, enjoy tormenting others, are selfish, or have some kind of mental/personality disorder, […]

Repressed pain
Losing my wife’s grandmother sent me into some kind of bizarre panic. It took me until last night to make the connection. But it was weird. I didn’t understand why I was excluded, unloved, and undesired. I could see that there was a part of me that was not reacting properly and going into panic […]

Boy #1 will be 20 in May, Boy #2 will be 17 in April, and Boy #3 just turned 12 in November. I really feel like Boy #3 and I have so much in common. For example; our sense of humor and the things we find funny, the way we relate to people in general, […]

Today Sucks
I am working on a major project with my friend. She’s working on building her brand and wants to expand to a book this year. That’s the part I am helping her with. We were supposed to meet every Thursday. We met three weeks ago, then she canceled, then I canceled, and she canceled again […]

SNOW DAY!
The kids are off from school today and my wife decided to close her workplace as well because of the weather. We got some snow and there is rain projected for later on this afternoon. It’s nice to have an unexpected day off in the middle of the week! Girl had her physical today and […]

Sunglasses
I bought new sunglasses recently. When I was in my 20s, I used to lose them all the time, so I never invested in a decent, comfortable pair. I did once buy this fancy pair of Nike sunglasses right after basic training, but they were the wrong color for wearing in military uniform. And then […]

Daily Prompt 1/23/2023
If you could make your pet understand one thing, what would it be? If I could make these cats understand one thing, it would be that meals are not served on demand. There are specific times for lunch and dinner, and crunchy food is there all the time. Asking for lunch any time before 11 […]
