If I make notes on the side, it helps. But unless there’s a real reason for bringing what I’ve learned into my daily life (and not just as a one-time thing), then I forget it quite easily. Tiddler posted on another thread that she researches stuff online constantly, but forgets it the very next day – that would be me!

If I put a book down for a week or so, I almost have to start again from the beginning.

My husband once told me that having ADD meant that he constantly had to relearn how to do things, for example, we would have to build a frame for the boat each year to put the tarp on, and every year it would be different, he would have to go through the entire process of building it in his mind and then in reality every year. Of course, it wouldn’t work to write it down because every year it would presumably get better 😉
