Welcome to 2019! I certainly didn't do well with my reading challenge in 2018 that's for sure. That's a negative for me from last year, but there were lots of positives too. I finally stepped up and admitted I needed help for my brain health, and then I did the really scary thing and made an appointment at Behavioral Health to be diagnosed after trying to manage it on my own since I

At the end of the last school-year I was just getting into trying new things. I had already decided that I wouldn't survive the summer if I didn't admit I needed professional help and so I went to the local behavioral health department. This is something I should have done when I was in high school, but my people don't ask for help. Ever. I received two pretty major diagnoses and have started on

Confession time: I was thinking about last year and was really getting hard on myself about how little I read and blogged. Life seemed so sad from the inauguration, to getting used to my new dog after losing mine, to the girls being busier with things like plays, musicals, 4-H, dance, etc. and helping more and more at the family farm now that my folks are older. Summer was really busy with work,
