I'm doing a free giveaway to celebrate the publication of my latest book! Like and repost to enter (UK only). Winner announced on Sunday. See the link below to find out more about the book. #freebie #giveaway

Why does this world scare me so much at the moment? 😭

If the kids' behaviour for the first days of 2025 is an indicator.......it is going to be a long year!!!

Wonderful hubby bought me Game of Life to replace a lost copy. It has changed but still lots of fun without having to think too hard. I know it can be looked down upon but we had lots of fun. Xx

Really doesn't feel like it is the 22nd December. Think we need to watch Muppets Christmas Carol to kick start the season.

This is the person of the year.

Does anyone else seem to go into shock when they have been sick? I cannot cope and have no idea how to tidy up afterwards. Is it an ADHD thing or just me being weird?

Yesterday I watched It's a Wonderful Life. Christmas can start now.

"Boys will be boys" Damn! I hate that saying. It is used as an excuse so many times. Deal with your boy.

Hold them close, hold them tight. Once they've gone it'll ne'er be right. Once they're gone the pain's so tough And missing them will feel so rough. Hold them closer, show you care 'Cause the pain's too much when they're not there. πŸ˜’πŸ’”

Just watched #Strictly on catch up. What a truly deserving winning couple. I hope they release a documentary on how she actually did that!!! She is inspirational. Loved the joy as well from Vito and Aljaz when the winners were announced. Love them both!!!!

Hold them a little closer. You don't know what's round the corner. 😒

As a child we had these deathtrap roundabouts. We'd sit on top, cling on for dear life, tipping our heads back, letting the wind take us. The lack of focus as we spun, the nausea, the thrill. This is how I now describe my ADHD head. As it slows, as things focus some bugger comes and spins it again!

Headaches, catastrophising, contingency planning, possible crisis management plans. All part of my ADHD head. I have plans for what to do if my plans fail. Are any of these scenarios likely to happen? Nope....but I still have plans.

Whilst driving at 20mph in London felt unnatural I appreciated the calmer driving experience it created for someone not used to driving in Central London. I felt less afraid.
