I just wanted to let you know that I have recently been diagnosed with
AAADD -Age-Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.
This is how it goes... I decide
to go work on the Sprite, start outside and notice
the newspaper on the table. OK, I'm going to work on the Sprite...
BUT FIRST I'm going to read the newspaper. After
that, I notice the mail on the table. OK, I'll just
put the newspaper in the recycle stack...
BUT FIRST I'll look through the pile of mail and see
if there are any bills to be paid. Yes. Now where
is the checkbook? Oops.. there's the empty 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 I need to water those plants. I head for
the door and...Aaaagh! stepped on the
dog. Dogs need to be fed. Okay, I'll put the remote
away and water the plants...
BUT FIRST I need to feed the dogs.
END OF DAY:
Haven't done a thing on the Sprite, newspapers are still on the
floor, glass is still
in the sink, bills are not paid, checkbook is still
lost, and the dog 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 sit down here and thumb through
this Shop Manual!
