‘Frankenstein’ Galaxy Surprises Astronomers by NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center
Woah!!!
Very odd choice in friendship text this generation.
Can we talk about how severe ADHD can absolutely DESTROY your executive functioning? Like...I know what chores I should do and help out with. I can see it. But I don't SEE it, you know?
And as soon as I say "I'll do it in a minute" ha haha hahaha. Good luck chuck.
But it also affects friendships and relationships. I'll be so busy hyperfocusing on another interest (or coping poorly if I'm upset) that I neglect to spend time with those I care about! But I KNOW I should be spending more time with them. But it just goes down the tubes.
So if you know someone with ADHD or suspect that they have it, please be patient! Also actually have a conversation about how you'd like more of their help or time. Because trust me they may not truly connect the dots. OR even if they KNOW, we don't have the Good Chemicals to act on it and are stuck in dysfunction hell.
And it'll take more than one conversation!
On to the next hobby...

The Perseids meteor shower is here! It's one of the biggest of the year, and will peak early in the morning on Thursday, August 12, 2021 and Friday, August 13, 2021. To spot them, find a dark area away from bright lights (yes, that includes your phone), and let your eyes acclimate to the night sky. But don't worry – if you can't get away from lights, join us on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube for a meteor shower livestream hosted by our Marshall Space Flight Center's Meteoroid Environment Office. Get all the details on our Watch the Skies blog.

Welcome to our latest little puppy, Huck! Huck’s birthday is January 7, 2019, making him about four months old. His sire is OF Wagon Train and his dam is Underfire.
On April 21st, Huck jumped from his breeder’s arms and broke a leg when he fell. As you all probably know, we never turn greyhounds away based on medical issues or the cost to treat them. So when we were asked if we could take this boy in, we said yes without hesitation. Huck joined the GALT family on April 22nd. As soon as he arrived, our vets evaluated the break and determined Huck needed surgery to fix it. Dr. Radash at Dallas Veterinary Surgical Center performed the surgery on Huck’s leg on April 26th. Now, his foster family is faced with the challenge of keeping a playful puppy’s activity restricted for several week’s while his leg heals. We understand that will be no small challenge. Huck is tiny in stature but huge on personality. He loves to play with stuffies and will find a way to have fun even in a cast. Huck won’t be available for adoption until his leg heals and he can be neutered. We won’t know how he will be with cats and other small animals until he grows up a bit. But you can give Huck and hand right now. The cost of the surgery to fix his leg alone is about $2,800 and we will still have the expense of his neuter and vaccinations. To help out Huckleberry Hound, please consider a donation to Huck’s Facebook fundraiser or on our website to our Miss Mesa Fund. Thank you!
Stay tuned for more on this little cutie….
