Forgetting My Groceries, in an ADD Moment

May 6th, 2005

In another ADD moment, yesterday I bought groceries and forgot to put them in the fridge until this morning.

They were out for 12 hours straight, so some of the food probably isn’t good anymore. I was hoping to have yogurt for breakfast, but maybe I’ll have something else.

It happened because I got home and put my grocery bags on the messy table just inside the entrance to my house. There, they blended in with everything else. I then went to get something to eat and sat on the sofa, eating.

I did get to put some of the food away last night, but not much. I feel like an idiot but know it’s just one of the drawbacks of having ADD.

    Ohh, this is a special one to me. AFTER reading this… yes, within 2 hours, I went to the store. Today, I found the milk behind the microwave (as of now, it’s been 3 days). I thought of this post when I got home and swore i wouldn’t forget anything… but apparently this block of congealed yogurt says otherwise. Even better, I forgot to take it out all day. and I just looked… and it’s still next to the door, waiting to be whisked away to that dumpster in the sky. *sigh*
