MY ADD..

I've diagnosed my self with the adult form of ADD. I'm not going to see a DR about it I will just have to live with it. See I have developed a very short attention span and can't seem to start what I finish only because I get distracted with something else. I start cleaning the living room and when I put something up in another room where it belongs I start cleaning that room next. Like if I put my shoes in my closet, instead of walking back to the living room to finish, I start cleaning out my closet. Go back to the living room to get the furniture polish so I can go ahead and dust my dresser in my room...only to stay in the living room and finish up in there, totally forgetting about the mess I have created in my bed room now! If I am cleaning the kitchen and have to walk out to my back room/laundry room to throw some trash I look at the pile of laundry...start some...clean up the back room a little...remember that the dog hasn't been feed...go feed him...see some trash has blown into the yard...clean that up...open the garage door...do a little cleaning out there...sit down cause I need a break...forgetting that all I was doing was throwing some trash and the kitchen is still a mess. It's a vicious cycle and some days I go back and finish up what I started...some days I don't. I have been "organizing and cleaning" our bedroom for about a week now and I just finished it yesterday. Only because Jaxon took a 3 hour nap and Jill was still at school...I turned on some music and stayed in there until I was finished...well kind of...I went to get the broom and remembered there were towels in the dryer...took them out and folded them and put them up...only to return to the room 30 minutes later...forgetting the broom! *SIGH* happy friday!!

The torture. The madness

I try. I try to make food last. I try to stick to a grocery budget and sometimes ( more than I'd like) I fail. I'm slowly getting better at buying the important stuff in bulk. Our main meats. Beef. Chicken. Pork. I can stretch that out for months. The big things of Sunny D last about 3 weeks....etc you get the idea. The worst thing I could possibly do is go to Sams on a Saturday afternoon. WHY?? WHY do I do that to myself? It's not like I'm that busy Monday thru Friday! O well lesson learned. When I do go back it will be on a Tuesday morning....a few months from now!

Where did September GO?!

My son was looking at the calendar the other day. Trying to count how many days to Halloween, he turns around and looks at me and says...."Where the heck did September GO?!" I laughed and said you are too young to worry about where the time is going! But yea I have no idea where it went. It seems like my post here lately is dwelling on where all the time went. Its definitely going by fast! And it doesn't help when every other post on Facebook is counting down to Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas! Geez people can we just get thru the first 6 weeks of school?! Speaking of school i have a a rant about the system. Or the lack there of anyway: I remember being disciplined in school. If I broke a rule I was sent to the office where my mom was already waiting for me. (Didn't help that she worked at my elementary school) but still. So not only did the principal lecture me about how talking in class and being disruptive was disrespectful, I had to get an ear full from...

Brunch!

Jaxon was sick this week. Which meant some of the following: Sleepless nights for both of us. Cranky mood swings for both of us. Alot of medicine consumed by him. Not wanting to eat, again him ( i eat all the time!) Wanting to be held but not wanting to be touched, mostly all him but sometimes me (on the days i didn't get to shower :) Nothing seems to go right when you are sick. Then one of the mornings he woke up at 4am he had gone back to sleep about 7am and woke up again at 11am! HOORAY! I remember saying when I too woke up! We both got some sleep that day! Him still not being in the mood for anything to eat..i whipped up some pancakes for brunch and he ate 1 1/2! I was excited! Until that afternoon when another cranky mood swing set in and he didn't want to take a nap. Therefore I didn't get to take a nap. Plus we had both not gone anywhere for 3 days and I think we were getting a little stir crazy. Just my guess. Because as soon as daddy got home we hopped in the car....
