I think I suffer from a little of both. I didn't use to have ADHD. I've heard of adult onset ADHD. Perhaps that's me?? Procrastination? It has always been my middle name.
Tuesday evening I was scheduled to give the 'green moment' at my Beta Beta meeting. I'm a new member. I've been to about 6 meetings and could only remember one other 'green moment'. Someone brought reusable shopping bags for the silent auction. So instead of preparing something, I did what I do best - Procrastinate. I remembered at 3:00 yesterday. The meeting started at 5:00. No time to whip up some great little crafty project from recycled materials. I can't help but laugh out loud at myself for even typing that. I don't have any crafty skills... Who am I kidding?? I googled 'encouraging recycling'. I called the local recycle center - no answer. Nothing. Then I thought there might be some catchy poem I could read and be done with it. After searching for what seemed like hours with various interruptions from students, I found.. a SONG to the tune of 'We've been working on the railroad'. That's what I ended up doing. I taught a pre-school song to a room full of school teachers. Some were my former teachers. It was cute and seemed to go over well. Singing? making a fool of myself? ... now that I can do.
Today, I had a meeting at Central Middle. Or so I thought. I get lots of invites to participate in meetings, committees, boards, etc.. When the middle school called me on my cell one day during a meeting, I answered. My heart raced cause I could only think that Logan had done something or was hurt. They invited me to a meeting instead. I said yes. I didn't listen for anything other than time and date. So today I had no idea what I was attending. Was I playing the role of parent or RSCC rep? And obviously I didn't catch where it was to be caused I showed up at the wrong place. My ADHD had definitely kicked in. I finally made it to the right place. And they fed me Chick-fil-A, so all's good.
