I was working on the schedule for my upcoming Summit and I needed a pen. I knew exactly where the pens were. But when I got up my body walked right past them and was almost at the door when I realized I had no idea why I was standing there Am I going senile or does this fit into the Neurospicy Starseed category?

Let's neurspicy things up here! What are your weekend plans?

So I was hanging with my grandchildren last night. After my grandson went to sleep his sister and I settled in to watch There’s A Ghost in Our House. Not a bad movie actually. Instead of asking me to turn it up, Mary said, "Can you put on closed caption?" Once it was on she says, "Now I can hear it". My immediate reaction was she needs to get her hearing checked. I asked if it had been checked. She wasn't sure. She told me she didn't think so and that she "definitely needed to get it checked". I called her Mom about it this afternoon. My daughter explained that she also uses closed caption because her brain's auditory processes is slower. Her degree is neoropsychology so I trust her. I'd never really given it much thought before, but I'm very sensitive to noise & light. I wonder now if it's connected to how my brain processes information. I'd love to hear if others have a preference between visual & auditory processing?

Neurotypicals have an unconscious habit of telling us to "just let it go" or "just don't think about it" 🙄 What is your favorite tool for handling this situation in your neurospicy toolbox?

Today's my Dad's birthday. Last year we sprinkled his ashes on his favorite pond on his birthday. This year the family seems to be doing their own thing. My neurospicy brain doesn't really process grief. Maybe that's why I get precognitive dreams that show death coming. I don't have regrets to obsess over. I get the opportunity to say goodbye if I want to. Still it feels like I'm out of sorts today. Maybe my soul wants to process but my brain can't. Does anyone else have this experience? What do you do with grief?
