Finally they have a name for a condition I surely have!!!  It's AAADD -
Age-Activated
Attention Deficit Disorder.  This is how it goes......I decide to do the
laundry, start down the hall and notice the newspaper on the table. OK,
I'm going to do the laundry...BUT FIRST I'm going to read the at least the
front page of the newspaper.  After that, I notice a big pile of mail on
the table. OK, I'll just  put the newspaper in the recycle stack....BUT
FIRST I'll look through the mail and see if there are any bills to be
paid. Yes. Now where is the checkbook? Oops..  there's the glass from
yesterday on the coffee table. I'm going to look for that checkbook...BUT
FIRST I need to put the glass in the sink.  I head for the kitchen, look
out the window, notice my poor flowers need a drink of water.  I put the
glass in the sink and there's the remote for the TV on the kitchen
counter.  What's it doing here?  I'll just put it away... BUT FIRST need
to water those plants. I head for the door and...Aaaagh!  stepped on the
cat. Cat needs to be fed. Okay, I'll put the remote away and water the
plants...  BUT FIRST I need to feed the cat. END OF DAY:  Laundry is not
done, newspapers are still on the table, glass is still in the sink, bills
are not paid, checkbook is still lost, and the cat ate the remote
control... and, when I try to figure out how come 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... BUT FIRST.......  I
think I'll check my e-mail.

If you knew it was poison - would you still buy it?
If I can show you a better, safer way, would you listen?
I can, will you?
