I Want To Do All The Things!

I have a hard time slowing down. I have ADHD, and since I quit drinking, I’ve had an overabundance of energy. This morning I found a fallout four recipe book, that helps one pretend they’re cooking recipes in the video game. My daughter, who’s playing Fallout 4, was so thrilled when I showed it to her.
