Mt. Laundry here, too!

“i’m still breastfeeding(doing the extended bf/child-led weaning thing” Hey! You aren’t the lady we were talking with at softball practice, are you?

That whole AP thing was awesome for us, because it really fit in to my “spontaneity” aka, impulsiveness, rather nicely.

Methylphenidate puts me to sleep :(

I was gonna say something else….forgot my meds, so had to take the short release, and they haven’t kicked in…

Oh yeah, my one tip: Use the hell out of outlook and set it to remind you about stuff. Get an app that syncs with it (my favorite is 2do, or something like that). If that doesn’t work, get a calendar for the wall in the kitchen. ALWAYS tell doctor’s offices to give you reminder calls, and don’t erase them from your phone, if they leave a message, until you’ve made the appt. Remember to clear them from your phone, though. LOL!

Speaking of that AP stuff, Dr. Sears has a great ADD book out, one of his older ones, pre-The Baby Book, I think. It’s not as ADD friendly, ironically enough, as it has all those side picture boxes on the pages, LOL! Take meds before reading. Lots of good advice in it, though. The Sears’ website has good stuff, and links to this one and CHADD, I think, which means a lot to me (I like this site THAT much).

Okay, speaking of inattentiveness…I was supposed to leave for lunch 5 min. ago. Where the hell are my shoes, and keys, and purse…maybe the keys are in the purse…damn I hate purses…and where’s my phone, oh, and where are the kids???

Elusive things, those kids. LOL!
