Also fortunately, even if I could only sit up for short periods, I could still talk and laugh lying down. By the end of her visit, I was somewhat on my feet and fired up!<br /><br />Part of the problems with research was me. It was only in the past few years that I realized I have had serious time management issues throughout my life and still struggle with them. I have many classic ADHD characteristics, so much so, that my siblings had nicknamed me the "ADHD One" among themselves. When I found that out several years ago, I was shocked, but began to realize that they might be on to something. So many of those all-nighters were my own fault, because I couldn't seem to get my act together in advance. Sometimes I was thrilled with what I was learning, but the writing was agonizing (still is). I think now that the structure of impending deadlines gave me the focus I needed to complete the task.<br /><br />And even just before midnight on Wednesday, I messed up publishing my IWSG post. I managed to publish an earlier draft that still contained parts of November's post. I was aghast when I realized that last night. But I was desperate to post before midnight and managed to put up a wrong version by, I can only guess, hitting the wrong tab after my final edit.<br /><br />Oh well, it's fixed now, and very much the optimist, I still believe I can change for the better! <br />Sorry about the long reply ~ I'm "processing" what happened as I write.<br />Thanks for all you do with the IWSG! I am grateful to be part of such an inspiring group.
