1. Randomly Ruminating
For a long time I have debated (with myself of course) whether to do this or not. Am I going to offend my family and friends? Will I be locked up in a padded cell and the key thrown away?
The reality is I feel like I am from a different planet and for so many years I have desperately tried to fit in, succeeded for a short while and failed.
I am a wife (2nd time) to a wonderful man, Dave. I have 2 sons one of whom is married. Dave has a son and a daughter both married. Between us we have 6 grandchildren.
A few years ago I did an exercise to establish my core principles and one of them was that I need to be authentic. The real ME!
So here I am. I am going to share my hopes and fears, my travels, my work, my ADHD, which was only diagnosed at 51, my attempts at writing fiction and non-fiction, my views on politics, business, sex, relationships, money, religion and anything else that comes to mind.
As much of my work involves working with ADHD families I am passionate about the turbulent relationships ADDers have and our daily struggles to cope as parents and in the workplace.
Sometimes I start a post, lose interest and move on. Well that is how my posts will be. Sometimes there is only a headline and then I can’t think how to express myself. I may come back to it a week, a month, a year later – perhaps never.
Serious, sarky, humorous, angry, ironic or sad I will share my thoughts.
This is the real ME and I am so looking forward to this new venture.
