LOL @trashman. You and me both.

Today I wanted to find some little bamboo skewers to provide temporary support for my peas because they are growing fast and I haven’t got the garden ready yet.

While I was looking for the skewers I noticed there were still a bunch of little silver stars from the bag of sequins that got spilled last week all over the floor. So I started picking up the stars.

Then after doing that for a bit I remembered about the skewers and went back to looking for them. Until I noticed I had some garlic cloves in the kitchen that were sprouting. So I Googled ‘how to grow garlic’ to find out if I can plant them…..

And on it went, switching from one thing to the next all day. And on the way home from my doctor’s appointment that I barely managed to make it to I thought about the peas again and made plans to find those skewers as soon as I got home….

And here I am.

I don’t know if I’m having a worse day than usual or if I’m just becoming more aware of all those little ADD moments and how often I actually switch gears in a day. It’s no wonder I never get anything done.

What I am interested in today I will have forgotten by tomorrow. And that does make it very hard to know what kind of work you might like to do.
