Now that my son is older I think about holiday traditions, not gifts. I know you're bored and burned out on Covid and being stuck with your people 24/7. People are buying so much crap in the middle of a pandemic and an economic downturn FedEx can't keep up. Your inbox...
****This is the Twelve Days of ADHD Christmas - COVID edition. Most of us have been cooped up since March of 2020, so we're feeling more anxious and irritable than ever. Despite how it may seem, I really do enjoy the holidays. I enjoy the community giving aspect of...
So as I wrote in this post, I usually get pretty stressed out this time of year. I have a love/hate relationship with the holidays. I want everything to be beautiful and smell really good. But somehow the idea of getting my house together and socializing is too...
