AAADD- Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder. This is how it goes. . . I decide to get my oil changed, start to the garage and notice the mail on the table. OK, I'm going to change the oil in the car, BUT FIRST I'm going to go through the mail. Lay car keys down on desk. After discarding the junk mail, I notice the trash can is full. OK I'll just put the bills on my desk. BUT FIRST I'll take the trash out. but 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 plastic cup from last night on my desk. I'm going to look for those checks, BUT FIRST I need to put the cup back in the kitchen. I head for the kitchen, look out the window, notice the flowers need a drink of water, I put the cup on the counter and there's my extra pair of glasses on the kitchen counter. What are they doing here? I'll just put them away, BUT FIRST I need to water those plants. I head for the door. Aaaagh! someone left the TV remote in the wrong spot. Okay, I'll put the remote away and water the plants, BUT FIRST I need to find those checks.

END OF DAY: Oil in car not change, bill still unpaid, cup still in the sink, checkbook still has only one check left, lost my car keys, And, when I try to figure out how come nothing got done? I WAS BUSY ALL DAY! I realize this condition is serious. I'd get help, BUT FIRST I think I'll check my e-mail."

Sound familiar?? I think my Mom lied to me when she said I would find that life would become clearer the older I got!! Ha!

I get the most housework done on the weekends when I bring home a load of MUST DO work.
