Blackdog,
Thanks for the heads up I definitely didn’t notice the date :o)
I usually start the day on a diet and literally forget about it during the evening. I also have impulse control around chocolate, especially those cadbury eggs this time of year. I buy them believing I’ll be sharing them with my college age kids but lose track of how much I have eaten and usually there is nothing left to offer them.
Not good as I have type 2 diabetes.

You are definitely not an anomaly. I am so very sorry about the loss of your little boy. I lost a baby girl 22 years ago and it still hurts, and I believe will always make everything even harder. I wasn’t diagnosed back then and often wonder if I had been if I would have done things differently. My husband also has ADD and he doesn’t do anything to manage it other than to drink a lot of coffee, nor do I as I have health issues, I have taken ridalin for long days at work, but lost my job after having some health problems and wonder if a lot of my health problems are due to poor impulse control and inability to follow a diet. I also suffer from depression and anxiety and the older I get the worse I feel, and function. This is my first response to anyone on these boards Linda, I just felt like I had to reach out my hand to you, to let you know you aren’t alone. <3

I was recently diagnosed with ADD and while grateful that I went from teaching children to adults. I am finding it harder to do simple housekeeping stuff like keeping track of my adult student’s attendance. I’m using an archaic system not on a computer and my classroom is not even in the same location as my employer. I only have to hand the envelopes in twice a year with their attendance and I have yet to do it for this year. I’m so afraid of getting in trouble or messing up my program for bringing it to the administrations attention. My classroom is a shared office so I can’t keep all my records there and have them in messy bags around my house. I am in desperate need of getting my own office so I can be more efficient but I find because i have a family I can barely remember to look for the attendance files when I’m home and only seem to remember them after I’ve arrived at work and of course by then it’s too late to fill them out. I love my job and don’t want to be fired or in trouble and yet the one big thing I need to do to keep my job is the attendance folders and I’ve been blowing it. Any advise would be grately appreciated.
