		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been weeks since our last posting.  Did you see how Jamama posted like crazy for a while and then just sort of dropped off?  It&#8217;s not that she lost interest, or forgot about the blog&#8230;neither did I.  It&#8217;s just that life - or lifestyle - is notoriously unsympathetic toward those with ADHD.  At least [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I know Jamama thinks she&#8217;s the only one for whom the perfect calendar is some sort of holy grail.  Not so!  I too am constantly looking for a calendar that will seamlessly address the following needs:

Free (or incredibly cheap)
Supports multiple calendars (Tim, Family, Work, etc.)
Calendar stored locally
Syncs with Windows Mobile Handheld
Syncs with Google Calendar

I&#8217;ve tried this software, laminated picture charts, flat-out bribes, point systems, a game called &#8220;Chore Chore Revolution&#8221; and more.

The way he writes about the struggles that students have makes me wish I could go to him and have him solve the puzzle of all of my challenges.

It&#8217;s not like it&#8217;s a surprise.  Last week someone said, &#8220;Are you looking forward to summer?&#8221; and I replied with some hedging about how summer might be nice after the transition to summer, which would be a drag, as it always is.  It&#8217;s not specific to summer. [...]]]></description>

Girls, through biology and socialization, tend to be less active, more compliant, and less aggressive&#8230; Girls who are distracted, disorganized, quiet daydreamers receive less attention from parents and [...]]]></description>
