I can't remember if this has been on here before, certainly it isn't new, but it's becoming all too accurate for me! Smile

A.A.A.D.D. - Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder

This is how it manifests itself:

As I sip a coke I look out and decide to water my garden.
Turning on the hose, I notice my car needs washing, so I head toward the garage.
On the way I spot the mail that I'd left on the table earlier, and decide to go through it before I wash the car.
I lay my car keys on the table, sort the junk mail and put it in the rubbish bin under the table.
The bin needs emptying, so I put the bills back on the table whilst I take out the rubbish,
Then I think that, since I'm going to be near the post-box when I take out the rubbish anyway, I may as well pay the bills first.
I take my cheque book off the table, and see that there is only one cheque left. My extra cheques are in my desk in the study, so I go to my desk.
There is the can of coke I'd been drinking, before I look for my new chequebook I move the coke, I don't want to knock it over.
I realize it's getting warm, so go to pop it in the 'fridge to keep it cool.
As I reach the kitchen a vase of flowers on the worktop catches my eye - they need water.
I put the coke on the worktop and discover the reading glasses that I've been searching for all morning.
I decide I'd better put them back on my desk, but first I'm going to water the flowers.
I set the glasses back down on the worktop, fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote control someone left there.
I know that when I want it this evening I won't remember where it is, so decide to put it back in the front room where it belongs,
First I'll water the flowers. I pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit of it spills on the floor.
I set the remote control back on the table, get some towels and wipe up the spill.
Then I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do.
At the end of the day:
- the car isn't washed

- the bills aren't paid

- there is a warm can of coke sitting on the worktop

- the flowers don't have enough water

- there is still only one cheque in my cheque book

- I can't find the remote control

- 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.

This is a serious problem, and I'll try to get some help for it, - but first I'll check my e-mail...........

Don't laugh - if this isn't you yet, your day is coming!! Now where was I?
