hi lovelies, how are you all on this weird wednesday?
today i thought i'd share a peek into my adhd universe. one of my adhd issues is that my memory is going. like really bad. i'll walk into a room for a specific purpose and then don't have a clue what that purpose was.
i lose words sometimes. just can't come up with them no matter how much i think. the other day i was trying to ask my neighbor about a table i had borrowed from her and couldn't think of the word card. (yes, card table) i said "it's the thing you play bridge on." ugh...
another side is that when i was on IG i had probably 50 categories for saved posts and they were all full of hundreds of posts.
the image below is how many you tube videos are in my watch later file. i'll scroll through things of videos and movies, etc and save them to watch at a later time. the problem is that later never comes.
i'll go to one of the streaming services i have to find something to watch and 3 hours later i'm still saving things to my watch list. i haven't been on substack long but i have over 100 saved posts to read (and most of them are like 3 minutes long?!?)
i make lists of lists. seriously, i'll make a list, then make another list based on the first list, etc, etc. i can be listening to someone talking while looking right at them and still not hear what they are saying because i spaced out.
anyhoo...
this is just a little glimpse into my adhd brain. so if i comment on your post and the comment makes no sense, please forgive me. it's just my squirrel brain freezing in the middle of the road. :-)
alrighty, i sense a storm coming and hear distant thunder so i'm going to get off the computer. i hope to be back tomorrow with some garden love.
love & kisses & magical wishes...

Your forgetfulness issues may just be regular aging-related memory issues. I have the same ones! And apparently they're quite standard.
