Aug 9th - MESSY

What’s a mess? Take a photo of it. Again, be creative. Think outside the box.

That should be easy....dd room! Eeeek! My scrap room!

I just cleaned both of the boys' bedrooms, and I forgot to take a pic! Grr!

I did this pic today. I wasn't very creative though. Just took a pic of my chores that needed to be done.

wish I could take a pic of my brain! LOL

I was offically diagnosed with ADD today. Not sure how I feel about that. Sure does answer a lot of questions though. And the next chapter in my life opens...should be interesting.

Wow, ADD! Have there been signs of this before now?

Yes, tons! But I didn't know much about it, I thought you had to be hyper....turns out there are two degrees, ADD and ADHD....and truthfully I thought that was my personality, all those things I learned to deal with and I didn't even know. Even today I learned stuff about myself, amazing really ...

A year ago we had josh diagnosed with ADD, it took years to get him diagnosed. As we were gping through the process and answering the questionairs I thought "good grief!". But shrugged it off, but it's been on mind all this time so I started to read a bit about adult ADD and then finally made an appointment because I was then very sure I was.....

So now I know, kind of interesting how I can explain myself now, I have to get my meds filled now ..kind of excited about all of it actually. If I had to describe how I feel sometimes ( not all the time) I would say my brain feels like one of those lotto 649 machines that spits out the ball with the number on it...my brain is the machine and the balls with all the numbers on it are my words, and I cannot grab the words as my brain is bouncing them everywhere. I hate that feeling.

I won't even talk about focusing on a task ...whoa! Big subject ...lol

Anyway, very relieved

My DH is the same way LL. I think he should've been diagnosed way back in elementary school. It probably would've made life so much easier for him. Glad you have some answers to explain things!

LL, my friend was diagnosed a few years ago and it's made a HUGE difference in her life and her career. Kudos to you for pursuing it!

Thanks girls...yes I am looking forward to being medicated ...lol

I can't wait to notice the differences, looking forward to the "better"

Glad you have some new answers Laura Lee. I am sure the meds will make a big difference.

I wonder if it will affect my scrapbooking lol
