Just a small sampling of some of the #amazing art showcased along #Wisconsin Avenue in #Milwaukee as part of the #sculpturemilwaukee exhibit. I'm so #lucky to be able to call this place my #hometown. It's really a #diamondintherough.

Boys and girls; you see that #cloudline? THAT is the #coldfront. It's the line between #gloriously #warm (albeit #muggy) #summerweather, and the #coolcrispair we now have. Yes folks, it's #science.

Here's the thing; everyone thinks they know what it's like to have ADD. Everyone assumes it's something that it isn't. It can cause debilitating life issues - that contrary to popular belief - CAN NOT be fixed by waving a #magicwand. Everyday is a struggle to keep #selfconfidence afloat and keep from fucking everything up. Many days are spent wrestling #depression. I have ADD. On my best days at work I feel like I am on top of the world; the captain of my ship, and part of the team. Most days I feel like a helpful annoyance to my coworkers. On my worst days, I feel responsible for capsizing the ship. I know how #frustrating it is working with someone with ADD (or ADHD) but I can promise you - for every frustration you carry, the frustration, stress, and worry they carry every second of everyday are often #1000xworse If you know or love ❤️ someone who struggles with ADD like this post and share it. SO MANY PEOPLE who have it are told they just can't do things - which is so not true. #alittlehelp and #alittleunderstanding #goesalongway No one ever wants to feel like the #oddoneout #truth #reality If only I could #TBT to thanksgiving on #seabrookisland with my family.

Hate me for what #Ibelieve. Tear me down because I think #women deserve every chance in this life. If that makes me #foolish or #ridiculous, so be it. At the end of the day if I can #empower just one woman to #riseabove the hate, #bethebiggerperson I will. I wear this sweatshirt for every #girl who wants to be more than society's expectation, #better than the #donaldtrumpsoftheworld, and #embrace #love & #tolerance You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I'll rise. #girlpower #love #equality #noapologies #nolies #butstill #likeairwerise #likeairIrise
