What do you think I'm doing‽

My first thought was "Is that really an adhd thing? I thought it was just normal behavior."

And then I realized...

I think of the quote "to make an apple pie from scratch, fist you need to create the universe" a lot

Add tasks to the back of your queue not the front. It was really hard for me to implement that but I did it.

This is how Factorio feels when you have a spaghetti base

Eventually I learned to tell myself, 'one thing at a time' (mean mentally but when I realize I'm wanting to do two things at once) it doesn't always work but does better when in the middle of single task like clean the kitchen. As opposed to juggling the garage and kitchen cleaning because you started running to both. Though I guess it works well there too. Start on something? Do that, heh yes I know but if you remind yourself your brain may realize one day.

Actually mostly used to happen from coming inside, dealing with grabbing some water, washing hands and putting a few things in the kitchen away, I kept half washing hand before moving on and would try an optimize some putting away with cleaning then drop something cause wet hands. Once I kept reminding myself for awhile the tasks went smoother without wanting everything done 5 seconds ago.

Dunno if this is useful to others but figured I'd share cause without some effort my mind will put me on that path.

I normally wouldn't even get up to do the laundry. I need meds (weed) to even begin.

Too busy to notice that needless apostrophe, I assume?

And what have we learned from this and what skills are we going to put in place to help?

Gotta write DO THE LAUNDRY in sharpie on my forearm so I remember.
