Much Better Day :)

Woke up mostly on time...Left on time with all the things I put in front of the door.. I remembered to take my meds... and for the most part I did ok today :)
I've been finding that this website http://www.skoach.com has been helping me out a TON! It was created by Dr. Kathleen Nadeau specifically for people that have ADD. Its really easy to use and very visual. I think this is the only planner I've ever used and actually enjoy using :)

Also since I have a hard time waking up in the morning I went looking for an alarm clock. I ended up finding an alarmclock app for my Windows Mobile phone called G-Alarm http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=galarm/about . In order to turn it off I have to do a maze and a few math problems :)
I also have multiple alarms set up so I can remind myself to pay attention to the time. They go off every 30 mins and then 10 mins before I have to leave. My time perception isn't so great so this has been working out pretty well for me.

I have to say that not having good time perception and a job that requires you to be on-time or early is really hard. I've gotten in trouble ALOT for being late throughout my life and disappointed many friends and family members. I think i'm starting to get the hang of it though ... I just need to keep using external reminders (I just started doing this about 3 weeks ago).
