I know I thought I lost it but I’m sure it’s here
Well maybe it’s here, if I can remember what IT is and where HERE was or something like that.
Ever have one of those days?
I have a recurring schedule of “those days”… regularly.
I often find myself coming up with ideas or brainstorming with friends and although I think its a new exciting thought, it’s really a repeat of a brilliant moment I had previously. Or sometimes I’m sure I already did - whatever it was - only to find out I thought I did it and really didn’t even start it. This blog post is a perfect example. For a week or so I keep thinking “oh I need to share that idea……” and apparently that’s as far as I’ve gotten.
Why do our minds work like this? Is it the fault of the over thinking, the too much to do, the lack of sleep or a combination? I’d vote for the combination, but I don’t recall being this absent minded in college and I got half the sleep then than I do now. Maybe it’s the increase of blood to my braincells. I’m serious. I must bend over at least 50 times a day to pick up whatever was thrown or dropped or spilled by someone other than myself.
That’s got to be it…Too much blood rushing to the brain causes forgetfulness and disorganization.
I wonder if next week I can think up a cure for chickenpox while I’m looking for that 11th missing sock.
LOL. That looks like my brain. Especially the chocolate thoughts detour. I can totally relate to the college comment. I think back to how much I did on so little sleep back then and wonder why I drag around like death warmed over now. Age? Hormones? Stress?
The cure for me is coffee, but it’s only a stop-gap measure.
I did the coffee thing for a while… gave it up and immediately became pregnant with #3. I’ve since decided Starbucks is also a contraceptive. Now, i just give in and nap time can often times be a family event.
