Woke up in an awful mood this morning but decided to get a major item on my list done. It took me all day and several breaks but it is done and it looks great. In case your wondering what it was… I decided to clean our white sectional couch. Looks brand new again. I’m so sore from all the pushing and pulling and scrubbing but I’m glad to have it done.

Ok. This was definitely the hardest day for me. I’ve been avoiding reading my full report since I did it 11 days ago. Did I tell you all I’m stubborn?? I knew instinctually it would be hard. You can’t provide real info about your past and it not be difficult to go through. I’m still very glad that I did it. I’m extremely grateful for coming across this challenge. The knowledge that has been shared has really helped me. I’m also extremely grateful for this community. You all are so gracious and kind. It feels like a welcoming home. Thank you all for being apart of this journey. 🙏🏼💕

While I was doing some bat‑shit boring tidying, I tuned into Alex Partridge’s ADHD Chatter podcast — the one with Sarah Warley from The Key Clinic. She read a letter to her younger self, and it stopped me mid‑sock‑sort. I love JIms work, but I enjoy also hearing from other Subject Matter Experts - Her message? Don’t be afraid to be different. Don’t give neurotypical people the power to make you feel small. And stop treating “normal” like it’s the goal. 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽. And for anyone who’s ever been told: “Tone it down.” “You’re too much.” “You’re weird.” “Just fit in.” …you’ll get why this matters. Masking kept a lot of us safe, but it also kept us quiet. Sarah’s framing felt like permission to stop apologising for how my brain works. 𝗡𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼‑𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀: Creative. Intense. Curious. Pattern‑spotting. Problem‑solving. Deep‑feeling. Not built for beige. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “too much” or “not enough”, maybe you’re neither. Maybe you’re extraordinary — and finally done shrinking. So here’s to all of us — the ones who colour outside the lines and build new ones. Own your difference. You’re not broken. You’re brilliant. 👇 Drop one thing you love about your neuro‑extraordinary brain. Let’s fill this thread with reminders of what makes us powerful.

Hello-One of my ideas was to start an ADHD Community like this in order to finish one project at a time in a safe space with ACCOUNTABILITY. It got shelved, like the rest of them. Ha! Happy I found this one and hope the 5-Day-challenge will help.
