ADHD is often thought of as the busiest boy in the class. I get it, I have one at home. So yeah, I was thinking about that same little boy. But it manifests itself very differently in girls and women. This is one reason that so many adult women are now diagnosed with ADHD.

Where do I prefer to buy those gifts? At small (online) stores. Shops that I follow on Instagram, for example, and where I know that someone puts their heart and soul into that business.

Why do we do that anyway? Those good intentions? If you want or don't want something, why don't we address it right away. And by immediately I mean, today or tomorrow, instead of January 1, 2026. Because life is way too short to waste those weeks, right?

The big shopping season has started again. Sinterklaas has arrived, the first shoes have been placed and the Christmas wrappers are flying around your ears. DELICIOUS! Because what a party it is, the arrival, the putting on of shoes, children's bouncing balls that bounce just a little harder than normal, the lights, the Christmas trees, Advent calendars and of course all that food!!!
