I found you by looking at the newest members on ADDer World. All you do is click "members" and it will take you to the newest members. There are so many members now that it is hard to keep up with everyone, but Grand Rapids, MI caught my eye and that is how I clicked onto your profile.

Are those cute children in the photographs your kids? What beautiful children!
What are you doing this summer to keep busy? Are you still working or did I read that you are not employed? I have a background in the medical field and the beauty industry, but currently, I am no longer working outside the home, due to fibromyalgia. Over one year ago, I was diagnosed and I was having many medical challenges so I resigned from my job to focus on my health.

The good thing about not working outside the home is that it gave me the opportunity to reignite my love for writing articles and short stories. Ever since I resigned from work, I have been keeping very busy writing articles, short stories and starting up several blog websites. My kids keep me busy, too.

Have a good week!

Btw: I love the pictures!! Those tiny chicks are awesome :-))

About 12 years ago, I was evaluated and diagnosed with ADHD, after my son was diagnosed with ADHD. Since then, my two daughter's have both been evaluated and diagnosed. My 14 year old has the inattentive ADD, while the 11 year old has the hyperactive ADHD. My son is now 18 so he does not act as hyper as he did when he was much younger. He has mellowed down with age, which I consider a nice thing compared to bouncing off the walls!

So you live in Grand Rapids, Michigan? Did you grow up there? I was born in Midland, Michigan, but once my parents divorced, we moved to Pittsburgh, PA. Several of my relatives still live in Michigan. I love how flat the roads are compared to Pittsburgh's curvy, bumpy and steep hills!
