Out of sight out of mind, so chaos is where I thrive… At least I loose lot less things if them all are where I can see them
“I put it somewhere so I wouldn’t lose it” is a thought that runs through my head at least once a week.
For me it’s, “I shouldn’t be doing this. I’ll never find it again. This is an awful place to put this,” as I commit to setting something down in the abyss.
I like to balance things in absolutely awful places. Like I’ll have a platter full of minis that are ready to be painted or a tray full of hundreds of tiny electric components and I’ll set them down on top of a closed water bottle??? Why???
I’ll put it here (in this special place I never put anything) so I’ll remember it.
It’s a LIE and I fall for it every time!
My chart needs one more option taking up half while the other two occupy a quarter.
“The last place I used it” is the answer usually around half the time.
Our problem is we can’t remember the last place we used it. Executive dysfunction is definitely cruel.
Story of my life, its always a special place and then i can’t find it…
For me there is also a tiny sliver that is "I am currently holding it but somehow got distracted to that fact and havent realized it yet
It’s a hammer and It’s always on top of the ladder I’m about to move.
Where the fuck did I put my glasses? Lemme just put on these glasses to look for them.
Oh, right.
Have you also needed to make a call and looked for your phone even tho you are using it to shitpost? I hope I’m not the only one :/
This but my wife is 100% green and I am 100% yellow
Forget what you are even looking for after you go to place
I compare living with adhd like having a crazy roommate with boundary issues. Looking for my shit like Sherlock trying ya figure out what the fuck was going thru their mind when they put my keys on top of the grandfather clock smdh
Leavers vs. putters
This is how I lost 30% of my possessions moving house.
Me right now. Slowly replacing everything I put in a special place, because I can only find the non-special stuff.
If you are putting something in a special place, SAY IT OUT LOUD while you are still looking at it. “I’m putting the screwdriver on this shelf.”
You’ll still forget but you’ll feel extra dumb when you finally find it again.
Haha, yeah i can relate so much
