And how thanks to Adderall giving me some executive function and how my mom's doing chemotherapy I just went and did most of the dishes (I left behind the good china and silver for my dad to clean up, but that was a smaller pile, comparatively.)
And my parents just thanked me profusely and really I was just kinda had to shrug cause technically I now feel like I should have been helping out more like, up to decade ago, and if you don't step up to help your parents when you mom's on chemo then what the hell's wrong with you??
I dunno, I'm at that stage in my life where I feel like my life's upside down. I want praise for all the hard stuff I do with programming, but few people understand it enough to feel it's proper, and now that I've got ADHD meds and I'm sorting some of my shit out a bit I'm getting praise for stuff I know I should have been doing all along but didn't.
And don't think this is me trying to kick myself for not doing anything in particular in the past. Knowing something needs to be done just just not being able to find the will to do it just was A THING and now I'm getting help fixing it.
So yeah, been thinking about Thanksgiving this year.
