Have you ever wondered what adult life with ADD is like? I have a tale to tell…

Last week, I used up the last of the cling film. “Better pick up another roll when I go to Aldi” I said out loud hoping I would remember it.

Went to Aldi; did not remember it. Went to Aldi again the next day and grabbed it FIRST so that I wouldn’t forget. Yay! Success!

Got home, went to put it in the drawer where it belongs, only to find that there was already a brand new roll there that I don’t remember buying but apparently did at some point when I realized I was getting close to the end of the last roll. “No problem,” I thought. “I’ll just put it in the closet and then I’ll be all set for next time.” So I opened the closet only to find a completely new, unopened roll of cling film sitting on the shelf that I had purchased at some unknown time in the past and completely forgotten about.

So, in the space of a weekend, I went from no cling film to three brand new rolls of cling film. I’m amazed I’m allowed out in public some days.
