A.A.A.D.D.

I have recently been diagnosed with A. A. A. D. D.
Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder... This is how it goes:

I decide to get my suitcase out of the car;
I start toward the garage and notice the mail on the table. OK, I'm going to get my suitcase.

But first I'm going to go through the mail. I lay the car keys down on the desk, discard the junk mail and I
notice the trash can is full. OK, I'll just put the bills on my desk and take the trash can out, but since I'm going to be near the mailbox anyway, I'll pay these few bills first. Now, where is my checkbook? Oops, there's only one check left. My extra checks are in my desk. Oh, there's the coke I was drinking. I'm going to look for those checks. But first I need to put my coke further away from the computer, or maybe I'll pop it into the fridge to keep it cold for a while. I head towards the kitchen and the potted plants catch my eye; they need some water. I set the coke on the counter and uh oh! There is the cordless phone from my bedroom. I was looking for it all morning! I'd better put it away first. I fill a container with water and head for the plants. Aaaaaagh! Someone left the TV remote in the kitchen. We will never think to look in the kitchen tonight when we want to watch television so I'd better put it back in the family room where it belongs. I splash some water into one pot and it spills onto the floor, I throw the remote onto a soft cushion on the sofa and I head back down the hall to get a rag to clean up the water. I find myself in the kitchen trying to figure out what it was I was going to do?

End of Day: The suitcase is still in the car, the bills are unpaid, the coke is sitting on the kitchen counter, only one plant is watered, the floor is wet, the checkbook still only has one check in it and I can't seem to find my car keys!

When I try to figure out how come nothing got done today, I'm baffled because I KNOW I WAS BUSY ALL DAY LONG!! !!

I realize this is a serious condition and I'll get help, BUT FIRST I think I'll check my email...

Please send this to everyone you know because I DON'T REMEMBER WHO I'VE SENT THIS TO!!! But please don't send it back to me or I might send it to you again!
