Story of my Day

THIS IS REALLY ME !!>>>>>>---------->>A.A.A.D.D.>>>>>>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>>my car needs washing. >>>>As I start toward the garage, I notice that there is mail on the porch>>table that I brought up from the mailbox earlier.>>>>I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car. >>>>I lay my car keys down on the table, put the junk mail in the garbage>>can under the table, and notice that the can is full.>>>>So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the garbage >>first.>>>>But then I think, since I'm going to be near the mailbox when I take out>>the garbage anyway, I may as well pay the bills first.>>>>I take my checkbook off the table, and see that there is only one check >>left.>>>>My extra checks are in my desk in the study, so I go inside the house to>>my desk where I find the can of Coke that I had been drinking.>>>>I'm going to look for my checks, but first I need to push the Coke aside >>so that I don't accidentally knock it over. I realize the Coke is>>getting warm, and I decide I should put it in the refrigerator to keep>>it cold.>>>>As I head toward the kitchen with the Coke, a vase of flowers on the >>counter catches my eye--they need to be watered.>>>>I set the Coke down on the counter, and I 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 counter, fill a container with water>>and suddenly I spot the TV remote. Someone left it on the kitchen >>table.>>>>I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV, I will be looking for the>>remote, but I won't remember that it's on the kitchen table, so I decide>>to put it back in the den 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 down 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 driveway is flooded the car isn't washed, the bills aren't paid, >>there is a warm can of Coke sitting on the counter, there is still only>>one check in my check 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. >> < /div>>>Then when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, I'm really>>baffled because I know I was busy all day long, 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.>>>>Do me a favor, will you? Forward this message to everyone you know,>>because I don't remember who I have sent it to.>>>>Don't laugh -- if this isn't you yet, your day is coming! >>>>>>Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we>>are here we might as well dance.>>
