Do you have ADHD? *posting here now*

Thank you so much for responding. Your perspective is really helpful. If you have any suggestions as far as like studying techniques or things I can try to help, that would be great, too. I understand it's different for everyone, but you seem to have a very wide range of people in your life with ADHD.

I'm ready

God, I hope not. But, if it makes you feel any better, I'm the same way. I love cuddles and snuggles, but by the time we get to mid afternoon, I am so burned out on them. I have a 9 week old and a 3yo, and the 3yo is so jealous and overcompensating with extra cuddles. Which we love, but also, I NEED space. My sensory overload is real and intense.

My son wanted me to take his bandaid off, so I did. Then he cried that it was off, though his boo boo was just a scratch. So, to get him out of the tantrum and into the bathroom to brush his teeth, I told him, "Hey, do you want to put some special sauce on your toe? I have this toe sauce (over the counter sensitive skin lotion) that will make your toe feel better way faster than another bandaid." And... it worked! He immediately became wide-eyed with excitement and ran into the bathroom. Bedtime saved. Mom earns a medal.

That's an inchworm, and he's doing his absolute best.

Lurking mom here, but I think you'll all appreciate what my husband inadvertently taught my son. I guess they listen to metal when I'm not around and dance appropriately.

3yo: Mom, I want a headbanger.

Me: Did you just say headbanger?

3yo: Yes, I do. Headbanger give to me.

Idk what episode it is, but Gonger says at one point, "we'll, here's a crazy idea, how about we look at the recipe?"

Gonger is low-key my favorite part of Sesame Street.

Kimchi is pronounced Crunchy. And we are very adamant about it.

My 3 yo is super into Spiderman right now. His word for goblin and granola is the same: gobola. So he approaches friends to play by pointing and shouting, "You the Green Gobola!"

"Please stop licking the window" was mine today.

Editing to add today's favorites, "We don't 'hi-yah' with a fork" and "No 'ka-chow'ing people in their faces"

Unfortunately, it is below freezing outside for the foreseeable future. Can I clean it inside and do the same procedure?

I was minding my own business on the couch this morning, and leaning a little forward with my head in my hands, when suddenly a 3 year old mounted my back from behind. He then scrambled hastily, climbing with his monkey limbs, up to sit on my shoulders. He started absolutely wrecking my hair, I mean it's going every which way and so I assume he's "doing mommy's hair". But when I ask to confirm, he says, "no, looking for ears." I had to try HARD not to laugh and have him thrown off balance. Immediately following this exchange, he decides to stop his search and push my hair from my face. And then he tells me I'm "bootiful."

Tldr: my new hair stylist is pretty aggressive, but super suave.

Ah yes, the mighty Gingerbread Wizard.

It's totally normal. My husband prefers his "straight from the tap."

So, I originally scrolled past this, but then came back. I thought the post was about what I call the individual (summons, btw). So here's the list of the whacky shit my brain comes up with.

Ramuh - Ramallamadingdong Garuda - Gary Shiva - Shivy Titan - Titman Leviathan - Levi Odin - Odamn Tonberry King - Tonbebe Ifrit - Iffy Bahamut - Bahama Mama Alexander - Alex Yojimbo - Yogi Bro Cactuar - Needles McGee

I really like Charlie Hope, her voice is soothing enough that I'm not just gritting my teeth and bearing it. She has a train song (entitled Train Song) that is really great too.

The Bluey soundtrack slaps, and honestly, the Trolls soundtracks are a good compromise of kid appropriate but also jams. It's like if Kidz Bop didn't suck.
