Well, Tupp.... you and I are going to get more out of life, just you wait and see.
I'm ordering a book called The Japanese Art of Decluttering, and I'm thinking everyone on this board would get something from it.
It's a fairly short read, and maybe we could have a mini book club session if enough of us participate. I have an order for Amazon going in. How do we do that so the board gets rewards?
About the brain integration. I think I hit the jackpot with new healthcare providers, and replacing the ones we lost when we moved.
dd15 had a great first session. It's not taxing, and we talked through the entire thing so it was like picking a professionals brain for 4 hours, while receiving services. Everything she had to say made sense.
YES. :)

Lighter, you're going to KONDO? I am awed.
I have watched her on Youtube and read articles about her book, but haven't taken the leap to ordering the book yet.
I think it's a wonderful thing that so many people are inspired by her.
We (Americans, and only in general) own too much, shop too much, focus too much...on stuff.
And I'm thrilled for your Ds having dx, early intervention.
I can't under-emphasize what impact undiagnosed ADD had on my life.
Grateful for having found out at age 60, but oh the goals unaccomplished....
Thanks for sharing,
Hops

Hi Hops:
I don't have the book yet, but i did read an article on the top 8 things in the book..... sounds completely do able. I'm sure the book has a very detailed process, and I feel ready. Esp since whatever flu took control of my skeleton last Thurs, and made me feel like it was trying to give birth to aliens, has finally let me feel human again. It was so weird. Usually there's snot, misery, but this time it was aches, dry coughing and misery. Just odd. Glad that's over, whew.
Youngest dd had something that was not at all similar.... she had high fever, and was weak as a kitten. She's back at school, and I'm happily doing laundry, and cleaning floors today.
OldestDD continues to do well. She's making progress in every direction.
I'm sorry you never had help overcoming your ADD. You're right, it would have made such a tremendous difference. It's not fair, but you're an amazing human being, and you've put tools in place, and managed to overcome.... even if you still struggle.

Oh thank you, Lighter.
What a kind thing to say.
There's still a lot of shame attached to my executive function (and "willpower") failure.
Glad you're enjoying all the transformations, and how positive your attitude is.
Again, really appreciate it.
Hugs,
Hops

You know Lighter... it's such a comfort to see that you're able to find a way to assertively live a joyful life. You've earned it, of course. Still working on mine. (His birthday was monday... and I'm on a countdown to Sat's party... still much to do.)
