This is how it manifests itself:
I decide to water my garden.
As I turn on the hose in the garden, glancing at the car I decide it needs washing.
This is how it manifests itself:
I decide to water my garden.
As I turn on the hose in the garden, glancing at the car I decide it needs washing.
As I head to the garage, I notice some letters in the letter box that have recently arrived.
So I decide to check the post before washing the car.
I enter the house, put the car keys on the table and the junk mail in the bin - It is full of rubbish.
So, putting the unpaid bills on the table I decide to take out the rubbish first.
However, logic hits me, since the post box is not far from the dustbin, I may as well pay the bills first and post them. Emptying the bin on the way.
I take my cheque book off the table, and see that there is only one cheque in it.
My new cheque book is in my desk, so I go to the study and find a can of drink I had started earlier in the day.
Looking for my cheques I push the drink and accidentally knock it, seeing it has warmed in the Sunshine I decide to put it in the fridge to cool down a bit.
Heading towards the kitchen I notice a vase of flowers that needs watering.
Putting my drink down beside them, I find my glasses that had been placed there earlier and had been hunting for all morning.
Before watering the flowers I head back to the study to put my glasses on my desk. However, I had better water the flowers first.
Placing my glasses back down and entering the kitchen to get some water for the flowers. I notice the TV remote control has been left on the kitchen table.
When we go to watch TV, I will be looking for the remote, but I will not remember it is on the kitchen table, so I decide to put it back in the lounge for later in the day...
First I water the flowers,pouring some in the vase, quite a bit of it spills on the floor.
So, I set the remote back down on the table, get a cloth and wipe up the spilt water.
Then I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do in the first place.
At the end of the day...
* The car isn't washed.
* The bills aren't paid.
* There is a warm can of Drink in the hall.
* The flowers don't have enough water.
* The floor is soaked.
* There is still only one cheque in my cheque book.
* I can't find the remote.
* I can't find my glasses.
* I don't remember what I did with the car keys.
* The garden is flooded.
Then when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all day long, and I'm really tired. I realise this is a serious problem, and I'll try to get some help for it, but first I'll check my e-mail.
Do me a favour, will you?
Forward this message to everyone you know, because I do not remember who I have sent this to.
Don't laugh! if it has not happened to you - it will, your turn will come!
GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY. GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL. LAUGHING AT YOURSELF IS THERAPEUTIC!
A, B, Catch you later dear reader!
