A.A.A.D.D..

KNOW THE SYMPTOMS.....PLEASE READ!

Thank goodness there's a name for this disorder.

Somehow I feel better,even though I have it!!

 

Recently, 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 it needs washing.

 

As I start toward the garage,

I notice mail on the porch table that

I brought up from the mail box 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 waste basket under the table,

And notice that the basket is full.

 

So, I decide to put the bills back

On the table and take out the rubbish first.

 

But then I think,

Since I'm going to be near the mailbox

When I take out the rubbish anyway,

I may as well pay the bills first.

 

I take my cheque book off the table,

And see that there is only one cheque left.

 

My extra cheques are in my desk in the study,

So I go inside the house to my desk where

I find the can of Coke I'd been drinking.

 

I'm going to look for my cheques,

But first I need to push the Coke aside

So that I don't accidentally knock it over..

 

The Coke is getting warm ,

And I decide to put it in the fridge 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

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 spot the TV remote.

Someone left it on the kitchen table.

 

I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV,

I'll 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 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 Coke sitting on the counter

The flowers don't have enough water,

There is still only 1 cheque in my cheque 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.

Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today,

I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all darn day,

And I'm really tired.

I'll finish reading this later.
