Ha! I was the same when I bought a new grill pan. So sad. So shiny.

Hi Keris, just discovered you via Susannah 😍 Reading this post reminded me so much of the 15 years I lived in the UK, where life was expensive and I had a crappy relationship with money and always lived above my means. Which eventually resulted in £70K of debt. I totally had my head in the sand about it all and went from one consolidation loan to the next until, eventually, I declared bankruptcy. I was in my early 40s at the time and it was the most liberating thing I've ever done. What helped a lot was meeting my husband who was the first partner who did not judge me for my financial mess and instead asked "How can I help?" Seriously, those four words changed my life, and my relationship with money. I finally took responsibility and have been debt free (apart from mortgages) ever since. I just turned 60 and have had a six-figure business for the last five years. It's funny, I haven't really thought about this time in my life in a long time and writing about it here brings up all sorts of feels. Anyway, I hope my story encourages you to keep going, you have got this! xo

So interesting reading that back because now I'm a couple of years into my diagnosis I've been able to identify how ADHD has impacted me -- and impacts me -- in even more ways than i realised. I definitely need to write an ADHD update on my blog 👍

Ps. i still bloody love my bin 😍
