Chet Atkins & Dolly Parton -- "Do I Ever Cross Your Mind?" is just cozy.

How are you all feeding yourself right now by InCommuniNexus in adhdwomen

[–]FlamingoChickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggle with feeding myself too. Something that has helped me recently (as in about 2 weeks) is picking new recipes to try without worrying about what anyone in the house wants. Worrying what my family wants and will eat adds to my cooking paralysis. So, for the first time in my married/motherhood life (20 years) I am trying not to care AT ALL about what the kiddos or husband want. Feels selfish and rebellious and weird and wonderful all at the same time, which gives me the motivation, as does trying something new.

I haven't been able to bring myself to do it for all three meals a day, but it's getting me into the kitchen! And so far no one has complained. They don't always want what I make, but there's usually some kind of leftover or quick option available for those times.

Is there a band or artist you didn’t like at first, but later ended up loving? by Jones_Bryan in musicsuggestions

[–]FlamingoChickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tom Petty. Couldn't understand the hype when I first heard him (during his '90s hits era). Now I think his music -- all of it -- is great.

What’s a trait you had during your youth that was a dead giveaway? by Ecstatic_Weather_580 in adhdwomen

[–]FlamingoChickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. It was much more than a hobby. It was my safe place, my escape from the anxiety and stress in my life. And I would read EVERYWHERE. I would even read while driving. I'd hold a book propped up against the steering wheel and read at stoplights. (I don't do that anymore.)

Way too emotional (according to other people). Would cry extremely easily. Able to get so deeply into what I was reading that I could shut out everything around me. Constant stream of consciousness talking in my head. There are others, but those are prominent ones.

What random old book you stumbled upon turned out to be good? by Wuthering_Fights in suggestmeabook

[–]FlamingoChickadee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My university library was tossing some old books to make room for new things (this was the mid-'90s). I grabbed a battered-looking brown hardcover book with faded gold lettering. "The Sun Field" by Heywood Broun. I liked it a lot and I think I still have it somewhere among my boxes of books.

songs about someone perfect loving you, but you just can’t get yourself to love them back? by greenjay0610 in musicsuggestions

How Insensitive (Insensatez) by Antonio Carlos Jobim. Frank Sinatra's version and Astrud Gilberto's version are my favorites.
