The Ben Platt song is amazing...the video was distressing to me. Watching the male disappear and the female run after him made her feel desparate to me like there was not mutual growth or respect in that relationship. This is why I had a hard time with MTV when it came out (especially when I saw Meatball compared to his love songs, a definite disconnect for my limbic self).

I have been a Daytimer (dating myself) Steven Covey user for decades just for it's organization and still, despite no reason in the world, love to shop for school/organizing supplies each August. I still have the napkin I drew my business plan on because diagrams help me (and, yes, I diagram my errands so I am always turning right in the car as much as possible on my "circle" route). I taught our kids all of my tips and some stuck, some they laughed at, and some they have returned to. All in the name of feeling good at the end of the day.

Just like making the bed and straightening the bedroom and kitchen starts me off right. I put the living room to right before bed. I am a person who likes things in their places to feel settled. I totally get it - now I just need a playlist.

Really enjoyed this pod. Our kiddo (finally) got diagnosed with ADHD at the beginning of this year. . . . It is a journey!

Hope you are well, particularly given the hard last week of May.
