Just a typical Sunday

Things I want to do today (an over-enthusiastic list):

Get up early (already failed - got up at 11)

Fold and put away all of last week's laundry

Re-build the door on the chicken run

Finish sewing the spring masks I started 2 weeks ago

Replace the plywood in the hall and lay some more laminate flooring

Clean out one of the garden beds for spring peas

Buy flowers for the porch baskets

Plan the garden

Clear out the (future) office and finish scraping the sand paint off the walls

Paint something, write something, or build something

Do last week's work from my organization workbook

Make a healthy dinner

Get everything ready for work tomorrow morning - pack a lunch, set out clothes, make sure my shoes & keys & purse are ready to go...

Things I'm probably going to do today (a reality check):

Fold some of the laundry and put it back in the basket

Feel overwhelmed, bored, distracted, hungry, or all 4 at once

Sew a mask? Maybe?

Start garden planning and get frustrated by it as usual

Remember I'm spending all my money on medication and therapy and can't actually afford to buy flowers this month

Play The Sims 4 for several hours

Start dinner at 8pm because I was distracted

Panic at 9pm about all the things I haven't done yet, stay up too late trying to do more, and resolve (as usual) to do better tomorrow. If you don't have a neurological disparity that affects your executive functioning, you're probably wondering why I even make these lists when the 1st would realistically take more than a full day to complete, and the 2nd is basically an admission of laziness. If you do struggle with executive functioning you probably read them both and nodded to yourself. More to come on executive dysfunction, time blindness, and other fun ways the ADHD brain "works". But for now - I've been writing and editing blog posts for over an hour and my Sims are waiting!
