A. A. A. D. D.
Recently, I was diagnosed with A. A. A. D. D... Recently, last week, I was diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D... Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.
I think I got it really bad. I Blogged about spring time coming a couple weeks ago, maybe just one week ago, I can't remember now and I don't have time to check. Anyway, I decided to water my grass, it's really dry here in Texas.
As I turned on the hose and standing in the driveway, I look over at my car and decided it needs a good washing. As I started toward the garage to move my scooter so it wouldn't get wet, I noticed the mail on the table that I got from the mail box yesterday. I decided to go thru the mail before I wash the car.
I laid my car keys down on the table, put the junk mail in the garbage can next to the table. Now the can is full. I put the good mail back on the table so I could take out the garbage first. Now I'm thinking, since I'm going out to the street near the mailbox when I take out the garbage, I may as well pay the bills first.
I get my checkbook off the table and notice there is only 1 check left. The extra checks are in my night stand, so I go inside the house to my night stand where I find the can of Coke I had been drinking. I'm going to look for my checks, but first I push the Coke aside so I don't accidentally knock it over.
I see that the Coke is getting warm and I decide to put it in the refrig to get cold again. As I head toward the kitchen with the Coke, a vase of flowers on the counter catches my eye...they need to be watered. I set the Coke down on the counter and discover my reading glasses I've been searching for all morning.
I decided I better put them back on my night stand, but first I'm going to water the flowers. I set the glasses back down on the counter, fill a container with water and suddenly I spot the TV remote. I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV, I will be looking for the remote, but I won't remember where it is. I decided to put it back in the den where it belongs, but first I'll water the flowers.
I poured some water in the vase on the flowers, but quite a bit spilled on the floor( I'm a little shaky on my good side too), so I set the remote down, got some paper towels and cleaned up the spill. Then I head down the hallway trying to remember what I was planning to do.
At the end of the day: the grass isn't watered, the car isn't washed, the bills aren't paid and there is a can of warm Coke sitting on the counter.
The flowers don't have enough water, there is still only 1 check in my checkbook, I can't find the remote, I can't find my glasses and I don't remember what I did with the car keys.
Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all day long, and I'm really, really tired.
I now realize this is a serious problem, and I'll try to get some help for it, but first I'll check strokenet and my e-mail for any new post since my last visit.
