John has been feeling weird and bad and dumb.  That's his way of describing his anxiety attacks which popped up this week out of nowhere.  Maybe he needs to do a Brain Dump! (Trademark: Mystie Winckler.) 

But...wait, why is Luke wearing a bathrobe? 

Anyway, this family knows how to throw some REALLY "dood" parties!  But we wouldn't be able to juggle all of those planning details if we didn't have a concrete plan.  Don't try to memorize your to do list, Pkarlgh!  (A loaf of bread, a container of milk, and a stick of butter.)  That's a terrible use of brain power.

Write it down, and then you can free up space for problem-solving...

Next:  John thinks memorizing the alphabet is stupid.  Total waste of time.  Please feel free to weigh in, Pkarlgh. 

Later: The Peaches has a new BFF! You should follow Brooks Gibbs on social media. He is a psychologist who teaches kids to be mentally resilient, rather than trying to rid the world of bullies.  His advice isn't only appropriate for children in schools... He also may have some things to teach grown-ups who are struggling with anxiety.
