A.a.a.d.d.

[ILOVEU]

Recently, I was diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. - (Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder).

This is how it manifests:

I decide to water my garden.

As I turn on the hose in the driveway, I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.

As I start toward the garage, I notice the mail that was delivered earlier.

I decide to go through the post before I wash the car.

I lay my car keys on the hall table, put the junk mail in the rubbish bin under the table and notice that the bin is full.

So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the rubbish first.

But then I think, since I'm going to be near the postbox 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 cheque book is in my desk in the study, so I go inside the house to my desk where I find the cup of coffee I'd been drinking.

I'm going to look for my cheque book, but first I need to push the coffee aside so that I don't accidentally knock it over.

The coffee is getting cold and I decide to make another cup.

As I head toward the kitchen with the cold coffee, a vase of flowers on the shelf catches my eye - they need water.

I put the coffee on the shelf and discover my reading glasses that I've been searching for all morning.

I decide I better put them back on my desk, but first I'm going to water the flowers.

I set the glasses back down on the shelf, fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote someone has left on the kitchen table.

I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV, I'll be looking for the remote but I won't remember that it's on the kitchen table. So I decide to put it back on the TV where it belongs but first I'll water the flowers.

I pour some water in the flowers but quite a bit of it spills on the floor.

So, I set the remote 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 cold cup of coffee sitting on the worktop,

The flowers don't have enough water,

There is still only 1 cheque in my cheque book,

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 damn day and I'm REALLY tired.

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