No really, this is an actual affliction. I am at the point in my pregnancy where remember what I was doing ten minutes ago is difficult, let alone all the zillion other things I have to do. I leave myself notes, or lists rather, all over the place.
Clean this and that
Wash that and the other thing
Call this person and that place
Go here and there
Remember your name
Seriously... the lists are LONG and most of them are about things that should be easy to recall. I am not a person who forgets things usually but lately... oh man!
Its like your brain has been removed and replaced by empty cells. You stare at the computer with fingers poised on the keyboard and the cursor blinking in the search box. Every time the dang thing blinks I think... "Now, what was I gonna look up?" Blink, blink, blink.... Forget it.
I get up go to do something obvious, like sweep because at least I can actually SEE the mess so once I have the broom in hand I should be ok to not forget what I am doing. Then, about halfway through sweeping, I go... "OH yeah, I was gonna look up those diapers!" Put the broom down and wander back to the computer.
REALLY stupid, because then I haven't finished sweeping and I look up the diaper only to get distracted by the kids and then I have no clue about the diaper nor do I have a clean floor. Uh duh?!
Maybe I should hire a maid....
As if I could afford a maid! How do people pay people to do what they are perfectly capable of doing themselves? ----Case in point---- So easily distracted.
Hopefully I can keep it together for the next few weeks unti this baby comes, but my poor family. My poor husband, he's likely to take a 'lunch' to work that consists of a half made sandwich and the dustpan!
