Distracted by ADD

Last night when the house became quiet with all the sleeping inmates, I sat at my computer to finish one last project. But I never got it done (or in fact, even started) because I spent the next 2 hours reading and following one link after another about how people with ADD can bring order and focus into their lives.

Pixie toilet paper

Pixie brought a sample of the toilet paper home from the orthodontist today. She just wanted us to be as impressed as herself about how soft. I guess it's time for me to stop trying to save the planet (we currently subscribe to recycled, non-bleached single-ply) and try instead to improve her private experience. The sample I have to try to match is as soft as a silk pillow. Garry suggested that we get her her own private supply for Christmas.

Pixie on fasting

Tonight Kooky and Pixie and I were talking about fasting and it came up that we are supposed to fast for 24 hours. This was new information to them since they're kids. Pixie quickly replied that she was only fasting for breakfast. But Kooky figured out a way to split the 24 hours between Saturday and Sunday to make it easier to do. Later Pixie said in her prayer, "Please give me all the blessings for the food I'm not going to eat tomorrow. And please give everyone else the blessings for the food the aren't going to eat too."
