Spring Break
Pumpkin is on Spring Break from school this week. I wish I got a spring break. Well, for all intents and purposes, I guess I’m kind of taking one.
It’s hard to get anything done with the kiddo at home. She’s pretty good about letting me work considering her age, but even when she’s entertaining herself I find myself getting distracted. I do a fine job of getting distracted when I’m home alone, so as you might imagine, I haven’t been getting much done this week.
I’ve all but given up on my ADD meds. I had high hopes, but they have little to no effect now that I’ve been on them a while. I thought maybe just popping one when I needed it the most might be the answer, but it’s gotten to the point that taking a break from them doesn’t even help. At best, taking them helps me stay awake all day. At worst, I’m my usual, perpetually spacey, dozy self.
At any rate, I’ve got to get my butt back on track. I think doing something outdoors with Pumpkin might help clear my head and put me in better spirits, but so far that has been impossible. It rained the first two days of her break, and today it’s too chilly to play outdoors. Maybe the next couple of days will be better. I hope so, because we could both use a fun and relaxing outing.
