There. I’ve said it, but no one really cares. For the first half of my life, I was just a lazy slob who never stuck with anything long enough to see it to completion (still don’t) and who got average grades for everything.
Girls they say are different. We are missing the hyperactivity component that makes ADD categorizable. And then all the other things just get written off as oh she’s just a girl.
So, I was getting by great and then I had my daughter, which was even OK enough but then my son came along and all hell broke loose. Stubborn and needy all at the same time, my kids have turned my life around. And then of course, being the ADD mind that I am, I figured that I would sign my butt up to volunteer for the PTO!! Because my full time job and my 2 kids weren’t enough to destroy my already fragile ego, how about I go let down a group of critical women and disappoint my children by making myself even more unavailable.
Well, stupid is as stupid does and I’m here to tell you that I am far from stupid but I definitely do some pretty stupid things. I just hope that some day soon, I’ll be able to figure out the secret formula that will bring out all the positive things about being me, instead of all the negatives that I seem to be sharing with the world right now.
Life is so hard sometimes. I wish that I could get the rest of the world to understand that .
