Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder
(Thank goodness there's a name for this.)

This is how it manifests itself: 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 to get my bucket, soap and shammy, 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 trash 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 trash first.
But then I think, since I'm going to be near the mailbox when I take out the trash anyway, I may as well pay the bills first.

I take my check book off the table and see that there is only one check left.
My extra checks are in my desk in the den, so I go inside the house to my desk where I find the can of Pepsi I'd been drinking.

I'm going to look for my checks, but first I need to put the Pepsi aside so that I don't accidentally knock it over.

The Pepsi is getting warm and I decide to put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold.
As I head toward the kitchen with the Pepsi, a vase of flowers on the counter catches my eye ... they need water.

I put the Pepsi 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 pitcher with water and suddenly spot the satellite remote.
Someone left it on the kitchen table.

I realize that tonight, when we sit down to watch "The Walking Dead," 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 garden isn't watered, the car isn't washed, the trash is still in the can, the bills aren't paid, there's a warm can of Pepsi sitting on the counter, the flowers don't have enough water, there's still only one check in my check 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 day and I'm really tired.

Don't laugh ... if this isn't you yet, your day is coming!

PS, Don't even ask me about the water bill!

Did you misspell that?  I represent his remark.
