No time or focus for a facebook live today.
Its Passover tomorrow night when Jews all over the world will sit down to a Seder and recount the story of the Exodus from Egypt. The message of the story is very relevant to the current situation...Hope for better times and faith in G-d that salvation can come in the blink of an eye.
Here are some pics of my home, as I prepare for Passover. Pockets of disorganisation and chaos all over the place...Slowly getting there. The lego (they emptied four boxes...) keeping my boys busy while I rush around and do my best to prioritise.
I have informed my husband and children that today I am available for short answers, no analysing/advice/offloading...My husband gets slightly better treatment....They have all been warned...
The simple ADHD systems that I live by really do keep me sane amid the chaos....
Most importantly I have learned to just laugh.. yes it is annoying, .especially when I come downstairs this morning and, 1.someone left the milk out all night. 2.The downstairs window was left wide open.3.another family member forgot to turn off my 10 litre pot of chicken soup and it was cooking all night...
Its ok to be not ok, and to make mistakes...they will happen...part of being human. Yes, it is frustrating, but I just have to move onwards...
The two goals that I focus on every year are:
Get to bed early the weeks leading up to Passover
Walk/exercise every morning.
Off for my morning walk, shorter than usual, but the most important thing now is routine, I am still going no matter what as I know it will ground me and help me stay CALMer... amid the chaos.
What is your top ADHD tip for keeping sane when there is chaos all around?
ps Just to let you know, preparing for Passover is like at least 15 Christmases rolled into one...Honest.
And yes even with my busy life, I am still making time for a couple of clients today...There is far too many women suffering overwhelm and inner chaos. THERE IS ANOTHER WAY TO LIVE YOUR LIFE. ITS YOUR CHOICE. Special offer still on. Send me a message and I will get back to you, yes I really will...
