ADD ------ the monkey on my back!

I had this bright idea once......   It happens sometimes.  It happened when I least expected it.  The day it happened is somewhat of a blur to me because it all happened so fast.  The idea to blog. 

Posting my innermost thoughts and ideas online for all to see .....   what was I thinking? 

I must admit that I am somewhat of a voyeur.  I enjoy poking around inside my fellow blogger's heads!  I feel like a seedy pervert peeking into the windows of their souls unbeknownst to them. I like to think that they don't know - it adds to the seediness.   Wow... this tidbit of honesty makes me feel slightly dirty.   Oh well, moving on! 

So, blogging was to be the motivational mode to catapulting myself into writing.  I think I always wanted to be a writer but never the drive or the focus (ADD truly sucks).  I find myself trudging through the day trying to find things to write about.  As my many 'draft' posts would imply - these ideas never come to fruition.

My thoughts and ideas are scattered like a puzzle dropped on the floor.  Now, if only I had the ability to arrange these pieces in an orderly fashion to be pleasing to the eye.  This and other evidence proves that, beyond a shadow of a doubt,  I have Attention Deficit Disorder!!   My husband is fully aware of my condition and lovingly steps around my piles of swept-up debris waiting to be disposed of and the loads of laundry that have been negectfully forgotten to be put away.  I'm lying when I say 'lovingly'.  My husband abhors my condition.... as do I.  Omega 3's... here I come!!! 

I dream of ideas.  I wake up and think how wonderful this 'story' would be on screen or in print.  I begin writing but the demon ADD creeps up and steals my focus, leaving me wandering aimlessly..... starting new projects to be left unfinished!!  What a tragedy.

If you're out there dealing with this demon, like me, and are comforted knowing that I am suffering with you.... then my job is done!!  

Until I cure myself of this disability, I will continue to wander the halls of my mind and attempt to put as much as I can in print ----- or continue peeking in other's windows, admiring their wit and humor.
