I drive a fire breathing 2007 dodge ram 5.9l 3500 her name is “Dustina Rhodes”. I have spent years adding upgrades between breakdowns for this work truck and have been very happy with the results and have received many compliments and have many talks at the pump. When she was a work truck I'd pull on average 18000lbs daily for 10 hrs. I stopped hauling and can not justify continuing to upgrade her now she's just a beauty queen. Super reliable with a considerably more horsepower than stock jacked up trucks that look like her. Its alway fun to blow away little mustangs when the light turns green. Best part is nobody suspects it because she don't roll coal only give away is loud pipe. and some dress up stuff.

✨ Things That Make My ADHD Brain Happy While running around doing errands and exercising (aka my “Dopamine Movement Kit”) ✨
Listen, running around and exercise is great and all—but when you’ve got ADHD, we both know the real workout is staying focused long enough to find your left sneaker.
That’s why I’ve made this highly specific, possibly chaotic list of stuff that turns "ugh, a workout" into "heck yes, let's MOVE” or “Yes! Let’s get our errands done today!”
🎧 Headphones that slap so hard I forget I’m working out Noise-cancelling? Yes. Bass boosted? Absolutely. Playing that one song I’ve had on loop for 3 days straight?
You already KNOW. If my music doesn’t make me feel like I’m in a movie montage or a dance battle with my past self, I don’t want it.
👟 Shoes that feel like hugs for my feet Bonus points if I can jump, run, pivot, moonwalk, or dramatically storm off during a workout. (They must also be comfy enough to forget I’m wearing them, but stylish enough to stare at mid-rep and say “ooh, cute.”) I wear through shoes quickly because I’m always on the go!
🧃A hyper-specific water bottle that I am irrationally emotionally attached to It has a straw. It fits in my car cupholder. It never leaks. It’s probably covered in stickers. And if I forget it at the gym, I will drive back for it.
🧼 Scented anything (lotion, lip balm, essential oil roller—pick your flavor) Because sometimes you need a smell distraction to get through the last set. Lavender = chill. Citrus = go mode. Peppermint = brain reboot. It’s the little things, y’know? At the same time I also don’t want to be stuck smelling bad smells too cause yuk.
🌀 A highly chaotic workout routine that makes no sense but keeps me engaged Is it yoga? Is it dance cardio? Is it interpretive skipping? No one knows. All I know is I’m moving, I’m sweating, and I’m vibing—and that’s what matters.
👖Leggings or shorts with SO many pockets Not two. Not four. I’m talking EIGHT pockets. I want to carry my phone, keys, snacks, my hopes and dreams, and a tiny emotional support lip balm at all times.
So what is the point I’m trying to make?
If it’s shiny, cozy, scented, musical, or turns exercise or doing my errands into a game I can "win," it's on the list. Because ADHD doesn’t want a routine. ADHD wants a vibe. And this list? Total dopamine gold.
🧡 Happy brain. Happy body. Let’s go move weird and have fun doing it. 🧡
Tried and true! To make this list, each product has to be one I use regularly and really love/believe in. It has to stand up to at least a 5 mile run to make the cut.
Everything I carry to stay ready, comfortable, and consistent at the gym. This list includes my go-to essentials, from workout gear and hygiene must-haves to recovery tools and small extras that make a big difference. Whether it’s for strength training, cardio, or a quick session, these are the items I rely on to keep my routine smooth and stress free. Perfect if you’re building your own gym bag or looking to upgrade your setup.

I prefer home excerise as it is easier for me to incorporate into my routine. Juggling classes, studying, and home-life can make it difficult to workout. Having everything you need for a home gym is essential in giving that extra push to do efficient exercise.
Typically a primitive camper, but sometimes camp more modernly with kids and dogs. Eventually, we will get a camper, but for now everything is in tents lol I pack and camp simply and usefully. This is mostly my hacks.
