I have recently been diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D.
Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.......
This is how it works:
I decide to wash my car; I start toward the garage and notice the mail on
the table.
OK, I'm going to wash the car. But first I'm going to go through the mail.
I lay the car keys down on the desk, discard the junk mail and I notice the
trash can is full.
OK, I'll just put the bills on my desk and take the trash can out, but
since I'm going to be near the mailbox anyway, I'll pay these few bills
first.
Now, where is my checkbook?
Oops, there's only one check left. My extra checks are in my desk.
Oh, there's the 7up I was drinking.
I'm going to look for those checks.
But first I need to put my 7up further away from the computer, or maybe
I'll pop it into the fridge to keep it cold for a while. I head towards the
kitchen and my flowers catch my eye, they need some water.
I set the 7up on the counter and uh oh!
There are my glasses. I was looking for them all morning! I'd better put
them away first.
I fill a container with water and head for the flowerpots-Aaaaaagh!
Someone left the TV remote in the kitchen. We will never think to look in
the kitchen tonight when we want to watch television so I'd better put it
back in the family room where it belongs.
I splash some water into the pots and onto the floor, I throw the remote
onto a soft cushion on the sofa and I head back down the hall trying to
figure out what it was I was going to do?
End of the Day: The car isn't washed, the bills are unpaid, the
7up is sitting on the kitchen counter, the flowers are half watered,
the checkbook still only has one check in it and I can't seem to find
my car keys!
When I try to figure out how come nothing got done today, I'm baffled
because................................ I KNOW I WAS BUSY ALL DAY LONG!!!
I realize this is a serious condition and I'll get help, BUT FIRST I
think I'll check my e-mail...
Does this sound familiar ? IF SO YOU HAVE IT ALSO !
