ADHD AND MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT FROM GOD

I finally found a book on ADHD which gave me strategies to combat the illness. Yes, there are strategies fellow ADHD survivors!  Who would have thunk it?

I had read the first chapter on having three different index cards and setting priority to do lists and I was really excited about this book. I had been praying for a book like this for quite some time.

Before I could get to chapter two I lost my Kindle. Dagnabit!

That is the primary problem of people with ADHD, that is we lose things. Not unimportant things either… No, we lose important things such as our keys, our cell phone and my Kindle.

I looked in the car, under the bed, in between my bed sheets and by my rocking chair and the Kindle was nowhere to be found.

Today was my 51st birthday and so I asked God for a birthday present. “Please help me find my Kindle today.”

He was probably a bit relieved that I wasn’t asking Him once again to find my keys or my cell phone. Usually He just directs my line of vision to the lost item but this time he needed a helper and the helper was my daughter.

I had let her know yesterday I was on the hunt for my Kindle which is, by the way, the very best friend I have ever had.

She was planning on taking me out to lunch for my birthday and as she passed through the game room upstairs she happened to notice my Kindle lying stark naked on the coffee table in that room.

She told me were it was and I went to get it right away.

I stopped shaking from withdrawal symptoms the minute I laid eyes on it.

I did not mention that I had thought more than once about buying a Kindle Fire HD if I couldn’t find it. (Kindles can be sensitive about that kind of stuff)

So anyways, God came through like He normally does and I am a happy girl once again and anyone that has ADHD would be very wise to take a look at the book, “Your life can be better.”

I certainly hope mine gets better because losing my Kindle was a tragedy for me.

  1. Very well written and something I need to think about I do not intend to remain in the pit of bitterness and despair. It is just no fun. Have a wonderful year Gracie. I truly do enjoy your writing style and subject matter.
