OK, Ive posted this before, but its been awhile, besides considering the subject and most of whom have befriended me on here, I probably can post it several times a week. AAADD (Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder) - KNOW THE SYMPTOMS...PLEASE READ! Thank goodness, theres a name for this disorder. Somehow, I feel better, even though I have it!! Recently, I was diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. 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 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 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 Im 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 Id been drinking.Im going to look for my checks, but first, I need to push the Coke aside so that I dont accidentally knock it over. The Coke is getting warm, and I decide to 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 water.I put the Coke on the counter and discover my reading glasses that Ive been searching for all morning.I decide I better put them back on my desk, but first, Im going to water the flowers.I set the glasses back down on the counter, fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote. Someone left it on the kitchen table.I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV, Ill be looking for the remote, but I wont remember that its on the kitchen table, so, I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs, but first, Ill 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 isnt washed the bills arent paid; there is a warm can of Coke sitting on the counter; the flowers dont have enough water; there is still only 1 check in my check book; I cant find the remote; I cant find my glasses; and I dont remember what I did with the car keys.Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, Im really baffled because I know I was busy all day, and Im really tired. I realize this is a serious problem, and Ill try to get some help for it, but first, Ill check my e-mail....Do me a favor. Forward this message to everyone you know, because I dont remember whom the hell, Ive sent it to.Dont laugh, if this isnt you yet, your day is coming!
