Some days, I have all the power of concentration of a gnat on a hot frying pan.
I start out with good intentions.
Trying to get this white sandwich bread recipe just right. It still needs work.Can squash be art? If the answer is yes, that would be a good thing since I have somewhere in the neighborhood of fifty assorted squashes waiting to be cooked. I have a feeling Larry would not like the idea of turning them into works of art though – he wants to eat them for Pete’s sake! A bit of straightening up in the pantry reveals that I definitely don’t need to buy molasses again for awhile. I hope I can actually remember that when I am in the store. “Did I need molasses, or do I have a lot? I better get some, just in case.” Which is how I ended up with this much in the first place.In the midst of making fajitas for dinner……the light on this tree catches my eye. I did remember to turn the burners on the stove off at least.I would add a comment here about how getting old is hell, but I have always been this easily distracted, so I can’t blame it on my age. So tell me – what is distracting you these days?
Sounds like my kind of day! At least we get to see some interesting pictures!
ADD, woman.
Everything distracts me…especially photography, pets, blogs, flickrr, food and. and.
and..what was I talking about again?
:P
You smokin’ whatcher growin’?
Just teasin’. I am easily distracted, too. I’ll turn the kettle on and forget I did. I have to force myself to stand by the sink while I’m filling it for washing dishes because if I walk away, something will catch my eye and then . . . I used to think it was getting old, too. But like you, I’ve always been this way.
I like to call it my artistic temperament. That sounds plausible, doesn’t it?
LOL! Everything seems to distract me.
You can have an amen from me as well. I can’t remember a thing anymore and it takes next to nothing to send me wandering down some bunny trail. I say we just relax and go with it!
Welcome Roberta & Luce – I love seeing comments from new readers. I hope I can be a distraction from whatever it is you are supposed to be doing :)
And ladies – I am always glad to hear that I am not alone in my myriad faults. It’s a relief.
