I have recently been diagnosed with AAADD - Age
Activated Attention Deficit Disorder. This is how it
goes.....

I decide to wash the car, start toward the garage and
notice the mail on the table.

OK, I'm going to wash 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's 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 need to water those plants. I head for the
door and... 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: car not washed, bills 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
why nothing got done today, I'm baffled because... I
KNOW I WAS BUSY ALL DAY! I realize this condition is
serious... I'd get help...
