Sound Familiar?
I've recently been diagnosed with AAADD (Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder). This is how it goes.................
I decide to go into town, start to the garage and notice the mail on the table. OK, I'm going to town, but first I'll go through the mail. Lay car keys down on the desk.
After discarding the junk mail, I notice the trash can is full. I'll put the bills on my desk.....BUT FIRST, better take out the trash. Since I'm going to be near the mailbox, I'll address a few bills...Yes. Now where is the checkbook....Oops! there's only one check left. Where did I put the extra checks?
Oh, there is my empty coffee cup from last night on my desk...I'm going to look for those checks, BUT FIRST I need to put the cup in the dish washer. As I pass the kitchen window, I notice the plants on the porch need a drink of water, so I put the cup on the counter and, lo and behold! There's my missing spare pair of glasses. What are they doing here? I'll just put them away....BUT FIRST I'll water the plants. As I head for the door, I see that someone has left the TV remote in the wrong place. Okay, I'll put the remote away then water the plants....BUT FIRST I need to find those checks!
END OF DAY: Never made it to town; bills still unpaid; cup still on the counter; checkbook still has only one check left; car keys lost........And,
I'm wondering why nothing got done today. How can that be? I WAS BUSY ALL DAY!!
I realize this condition is serious.....I'd get help....BUT FIRST, think I'll check my email.............................
