lea_hazelYesterday I was with family all day for Rosh Hashana (part of our elaborate family tradition), except in the evening, when I manag4ed to do some light outlining work, and compose a reply-to-a-reply for one of my meta posts on Tumblr.
Today, I was planning to do a full workday, even though it's technically chag. I had two writing intervals scheduled on my calendar, one for the morning and one for the afternoon. That should have left room for household chores, decent break time, and even a long morning routine.
Except that my brain kind of refused to gel? It does that sometimes.
Then when I was making my after-lunch coffee, I contemplated what else changed in my routine recently. And Even though I've never managed to do that single-minded focus that other ADHD-having people get with their medication... I think I finally have some insight into how it *does* affect me.
I'm going to try to test that theory tomorrow, and possibly on Friday, too. I'll report back if I'm successful.
