Doing the CA one on Tuesday, kinda in the same boat. Feeling much more relaxed than the NY one a few years back. Not sure if it’s extra confidence after passing one or just not giving a damn after the past year 😂

Getting over heartbreak and having a full time job is torture lol. My boyfriend and I just broke up after almost a year of being together.

My body hurts, my stomach is in knots, my head hurts. How is it that I have to mend a broken heart but also meet my billable hours lmao

Googling ADHD today (I’m having a distracted day) and super frustrated because I’m realizing that I was likely misdiagnosed as depressed for years.

Found you tube channel ADDitutde magazine. Several really good presentations with recent developments Thought I’d share.

Brigadeiro are scrumptious dulce de leche caramel bonbons, a beloved confection of Brazil. Brigadeiro is made from sweetened condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder which is heated in a saucepan until it thickens and becomes a sticky caramel. Once it cools, it is rolled into a ball and dipped in multicolored sprinkles.

The iconic bonbon was named after Brigadeiro Eduardo Gomes, a 1946 presidential candidate. It was created to win voter support. (He lost).
