I can make a list too.

  • why is spencer how's last name spelled haugh?
  • i know why the track was all smiles and puppy dogs...cat 6 brought cookies.
  • it is possible to be fiber rich and poopie poor.
  • am I the only one concerned about the absence Donimator? No blog posts, no track appearances, no boat being pulled to Giro D'kot Tek for no reason.
  • i ride my bike to work and am farty most of the day...am I still carbon neutral?
  • because there is a street torn up by my house, i end up riding past smither's house on my morning commute. i would stop by and ask if i could get an espresso from his fancy machine, but the last time i crossed the moat when the draw bridge was up, i got hot grease dumped on my head.
  • we didn't know our neighbor was pregnant until 2 weeks after the baby was born.
  • 12 inches is not enough garden space for summer squash.
  • i laugh when two-year-olds try saying 'Percy' and 'bridge'

You just need to use the secret knock. Stop by anytime.

we didn't know our neighbor was pregnant until 2 weeks after the baby was born.

Hopefully the parents knew slightly sooner.

Ahah- now I newz it to be true. You have just moved up to the top on my list of elite racer bloggers who can turn gibberish into comedic gold and back again into gibberish in a single instant. What a midas touch you have. I am dying to put a face to the voice. Are you a fairly fast GP rider with relatively big femurs?

Rough Stretch

 The past week or so has not been a good one for me. I have not been able to sleep which seemingly has fueled my ADHD which keeps me up at night, and I'm tired fueling ADHD, and I don't sleep. On and on and on.... ADHD combined with depression and anxiety makes for a cocktail of a mess. Depression and anxiety aside, ADHD for me has always been disruptive. Depression and anxiety at least have a function and/or purpose, for me these are protectors from vulnerability. But ADHD is just how things operate, it's nature and not nurture.  I struggle with staying on tasks through to completion, even ones that I get hyper focused on. On any given day when I'm doing a chore around the house, laundry, dishes, vacuuming....I usually get to the 70% completion point, if that sometimes, and call it good. There will be three dishes in the sink vs ten. Most of my laundry will be completed, but a good chunk will remain in the basket and probably get washed a second time as I start putting

Back Again

 Running up hill on sand is tough, a lot of effort with little gains. That is what this past year has felt like. While I feel I have my ADHD somewhat under control, I still struggle with depression, impulsiveness, and emotional fluctuations.  I also stopped therapy. I thought for a while that I was okay and could handle life but only to find that I still need help. I’ll be meeting with a new therapist later this week and am hopeful for a fresh perspective and is someone who will hold me accountable. I feel like my last therapist was the start I needed. I was lost in how and where and what to work on. I feel I was able to get things in motion and found some direction. I confused those first few steps with being well on my way to recovery.  I’m bummed that it took me a year to gain that perspective because if I stuck with it I would actually further along in my recovery. I don’t resent or feel guilt for falling back into old routines. I would only feel guilty if I didn’t try and work on

Spiraling

 I often get caught in an emotional downward spiral and can't stop it. It happens quite often and is most disruptive at night. I can't sleep and can't calm myself. My anxiety really kicks into high gear and I catastrophize everything in my world.  I'm not good enough. I'm not smart enough. Everyone else has a better existence than me. Everyone else has a better relationship with their spouse. The list goes on, and on, and on, and on.  I don't know how this starts with me nor do I know how to bring myself out of it. I have talked to my therapist about it and we are working on it, but it really hangs over me. It's tiresome.  I like to think that someday I'll be better equipped to recognize what is happening to me in these moments. I have a lifetime of this in me and takes work, a lot of work, to resolve what's going on. I don't feel like I am always doing the work required. I give in to easy to the decades of inaction and give up and just move on w
