Recently I was diagnosed with A. A. A. D. D. (Age
Activated Attention Deficit Disorder). This is how it
developed:
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

first.[/url]
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 to my desk where I find the can of soda
that I had been drinking.
I’m going to look for my checks, but first I need to push
the can of soda aside so that I don’t accidentally knock
it over. I see that the soda is getting warm, and I decide
I should put it in the
keep it cold.
As I head toward the kitchen with the soda, a vase of
flowers on the counter catches my eye - they need to be
watered.
I set the soda 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 car isn’t washed,
-
the bills aren’t paid,
-
there is a warm can of soda sitting on the counter,
-
the flowers don’t have enough water,
-
there is still only one check in my checkbook,
-
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 day long,
and I’m really tired. LOL!!
