ADHD Man of DistrAction

[caption id="attachment_972" align="alignleft" width="229" caption="Good Days!"][/caption]

I’m tired today. Actually I was pretty tired yesterday, too. Exhausted is probably the right word. I didn’t sleep well the night before last, and I woke up early again this morning.

My brain feels numb. It’s crawling through thoughts like they’re thick porridge, and it crosses my mind, not for the first time, that this might be the speed the so called normal mind thinks at.

That thought makes me laugh, until I realize that even if this is the speed they think at, I’m still my usual distracted and scattered self. Now I’m thinking about twenty different things but doing it slowly. Not good.
But I said this was a good day, didn’t I?
Yes, this is a good day. Yesterday was good too, very good. Yes, two good days. And in fact “yes” is my new favourite word.

  • Yahoo, Kelly! The power of positivity…it is indeed an amazing thing. Those “good days” give us the fortitude and strength to deal with the not so good ones. It is nice to see a positive blog.

    • Thanks, Joanne. You’re one of the positive things in my life.

      Thanks for reading and commenting,
      Kelly

  • Spontaneous appreciation and celebrating beauty are two things I excel at :D Thanks for putting a new spin on that for me. The normans have always rolled their eyes and been uncomfortable with my freedom of expressing my joy. Thanks, Kelly.

    • You’re welcome, Karen. Thanks for expressing your joy here.

      And thanks for reading my blog,
      Kelly
