Inspired by Youtuber Ethan Rode I made overnight oats in my homemade yoghurt and flavored this morning with fresh espresso. Nutrition and my ADHD kick rolled into one.

Thanks to Izzyexile for the help with identifying the gentleperson in Pink.
In any case, my flags are:
* Foot fetish (the large one) this is my primary ID, whether or not the LGBTQIA+ community accepts it as valid or not. I’ve known since first grade that I’m attracted to womens’ feet. I was also diagnosed with dyslexia at the same age, but “neurodiversity” was not at thing. Also, fetishism was, at that time, considered a mental illness — kind of like other non-normy IDs.
...and from top on the smaller sign:
* Greyromantic -- on the aromantic spectrum, but capable of romance occasionally, and under certain circumstances
* Nebularomantic -- difficulty differentiating between romantic and platonic love and understanding romantic love; reserved for neurodivergent folks
* Neurodiverse/Neurodivergent -- in my case, dyslexia, atypical ADHD and migraines. There also appears to be a strong correlation between neurodivergent people and kink/fetishes.
I’ve been made to feel incredibly small about all of these, especially my foot fetish — by multiple people who claimed to love me, including intimate partners, and been referred to therapy to be “cured” — guess what? I, too, was born this way, and, to their credit, the therapists eventually acknowledged this.

Una volta si chiamava “argento vivo”, “vivacità”, irrequietezza. Oggi grazie alla medicalizzazione scellerata di molti comportamenti, ha un nome sinistro: “sindrome ADHD” o sindrome da iperattività: se un bambino è irrequieto, passa da un gioco all’altro, non riesce a star fermo , insomma, se il bambino si ostina a fare il bambino è segno che ha qualcosa che non va.
I drew this in a meeting that was so boring, I actually wanted to bite my pen, hard enough to cause pain, just to know I was still alive.
Some days are better than others when it comes to keeping myself busy enough to ward off my ADHD.
And others, well, others I give in and allow the chaos to take hold.
I am blessed to have someone who watches me spiral and only gives me that LOOK every so often :)

MACAROO
I don't really know her name
Macaroo sounds like it would suit her
macaroons are made from coconuts
and she's certainly nuts that's for sure
she's a lovely light bluey grey tabby
sleek and lithe like I was in my youth
she never keeps still I'm pretty sure she's ADHD
but nevertheless enjoys every minute of it
she often hangs out around where I live
today she was climbing far out on the big branches
of the massive copper beech near the library
trying to catch the birds on the far-flung twigs
I called to her and she did look down at me
maybe she smiled it's hard to tell
maybe she was informing me she was busy
who can really say for sure
in any case she's no great conversationlist
I'm not even sure she even knows who I am
her attention span is brief and fleeting
but I like it that she doesn't believe in hibernating
..............
MACAROO
a dire il vero non ho idea come si chiama
Macaroo come nome suona bene per lei
i macaroon sono fatti con noci di cocco
e lei è una cocca bizzarra
è una deliziosa soriana grigio bluastro chiaro
elegante e flessuosa come lo ero nella mia giovinezza
non sta mai ferma sono sicuro che ha ADHD
ma ogni secondo se lo gode lo stesso
lei spesso bazzica vicino casa mia
oggi stava arrampicandosi sui grandi rami
del massiccio faggio di rame vicino alla biblioteca
cercando di catturare gli uccelli sui ramoscelli lontani
la chiamai e lei mi guardò dalla sua postazione
forse sorrise ma è difficile essere sicuri
forse mi stava dicendo che era impegnata
chi può davvero dire con certezza
in ogni caso non è brava a conversare
non so nemmeno che lei sappia chi sono
la sua capacità di attenzione è breve e fugace
però mi piace il fatto che non crede nel letargo
..............
MACAROO
Ich kenne ihren Namen wirklich nicht
Macaroo hört sich an, als würde es zu ihr passen
das Wort klingt ein bisschen verrückt
und sie ist allerdings plemplem, das ist sicher
sie ist eine reizende hellblaue graue Tabby
glatt und geschmeidig wie ich in meiner Jugend war
sie bleibt nie still, ich bin mir ziemlich sicher, dass sie ADHS ist
geniesst sie aber trotzdem jede Minute davon
sie hängt oft herum, wo ich wohne
heute kletterte sie weit draussen auf den grossen Ästen
der massiven Rotbuche in der Nähe der Bibliothek
versucht, die Vögel auf den weit entfernten Zweigen zu fangen
ich rief sie an und sie sah auf mich herab
kann schon sein lächelte sie, es ist schwer zu sagen
vielleicht informierte sie mich, dass sie beschäftigt war
wer kann wirklich sicher feststellen
auf jeden Fall ist sie nicht gut im Gespräch
ich weiss nicht einmal, ob sie überhaupt weiss, wer ich bin
ihre Aufmerksamkeitsspanne ist kurz und flüchtig
aber ich mag es, dass sie nicht an den Winterschlaf glaubt

I should have been studying more instead of doing this photo, but I've had this concept in mind for a long while and wanted to finally do it. Although I'm not totally happy with the more technical aspects of it (but being a perfectionist I never am, haha), it actually turned out very close to what I had in mind which makes me happy. =)
I think this concept came back into my head today because of the phone call I got in class from the hospital, saying that I have a CT scan booked for the 19th. That's pretty dang fast, which is great, but... hmm. Yeah. Basically, it's a brain scan to check out some weird stuff that's been going on with headaches and vision problems, etc, which is quickly looking like it might be the straw that broke the camel's back.
I won't ramble on about it all here, but the concept of this photo is how sick I can get with being sick (yep, those are really all my pills that I take every day, though there's sometimes more). I'm a pretty positive person, which does wonders, but I miss being able to play sports and, you know, even wake up in the morning without numerous dislocated joints.
Wait, what?
Yep, it's called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, or EDS, which is a connective tissue disorder (not enough collegen, which is the glue that holds your body together, so instead of my ligaments being like rubber bands, they're like those favourite pair of sweats with the super stretched out waistband). Right now it still says HMS (hypermobility syndrome) on my records, but I'm in the process right now of it being properly changed to EDS (hard to explain, sorry). It's way too complicated to type it all out, but the main characteristics are frequent and easy dislocations, stretchy, delicate skin, easy bruising, etc.
I won't bore you to death with too much detail here, but if you want to learn more, you can do so here: www.ednf.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&a...
On top of EDS, I also have asthma, ADHD, hypothyroidism, numerous other sub-conditions that go with those, and a couple other things. I also might have a few other things that are being investigated currently.
Now, I'm sorry if this seems like a vent, because that's not what I meant this to be. I AM OKAY! =) My point of this photo is to help raise awareness for EDS and other chronic illnesses, and, most importantly, emphasize the message that everyone has their own battles to deal with in life, and you never know what those might be for a person unless they open up to you. There's such a stigma around health problems, and I want to work towards helping break it. For example, when people find out about my health, they either don't believe me or freak out and are scared to even breathe on me. Both can get really hard to deal with.
This website pretty much sums up the first part: www.butyoudontlooksick.com/
Anyways, I doubt most people even read this far, but thank-you if you did. =) I'm normally pretty shy about sharing about my health issues, but I'm trying to be more open about them now in hopes of raising awareness and also reaching out to others who have chronic illnesses.
If you are reading this and are also going through some tough stuff, whether physical or mental health, or any other difficult circumstances, YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Don't be afraid to reach out to your friends and family. People care, even if they don't always know how to show it. Just give them a chance, and don't be embarrassed or ashamed.

Umbrella Project
Located in Church Alley.
A huge splash of colour has arrived in Liverpool, for the summer of 2021, as 200 brightly coloured umbrellas have been suspended over a busy city centre street.
The project is to raise awareness and understanding of ADHD and other neurodiverse conditions.

You can tell from the way I post photos here that I have ADD or ADHD or whatever you want to call it. I can’t just post landscape shots, or wedding shots or kid shots, etc. I have to mix them up all the time. Trying to be a jack of all trades. While it’s great to diversify, not specializing in one aspect of photography, or any craft can lead to a dramatic downfall.
Case in point, Sizzler. For many years people appreciated going to a restaurant and having the option of having either salmon, a steak, or perhaps a salad bar. Choices. But their problem was they weren’t really good at any of those things. They were average at best, not including their cheese toast. I worked at Sizzler for 4+ years and to their credit, they put me through college. I still have a place in my heart for the Siz, even though most of them are gone now.
Back on topic. When you think of a wedding photographer, you know who you think of. A landscape photographer, a still life photog, kids, sports, architecture, newborns, cars… I could give you great examples of each of them because I associate their name with their specialty. But are there any good photographers who really do well at everything they do?
This weekend after my kids bday party, I’ll be shooting 2 engagements, a maternity session, and probably a couple sunset photos in the high desert. Too much diversity? Should I stick with one genre?
What it comes down to, is I really enjoy taking photos of everything, and want to be good at it all, so there.
