Me!! I am out of order. I slept in. Then I could not find things in plain sight. It is time to put my coat on and leave and I have not spent any time here at all. Are you out of order? How will you get that fixed?

If I move something, I cannot find for days, I remember "the old place" all the time.

@LadyDuck I do that a little. This particular thing was oatmeal I had pre measured to make breakfast easy for me. I had several little containers all ready to pour up and cook. Lost them. Until I measured and cooked for this morning, then I found them.

Hey, I can remember where I kept something a few houses ago but not where it is now.

@BarBaraPrz Exactly the same as you, when my husband asks I tell him "I remember where it was in our previous apartment".

I hope that the out of order part of your day is done as soon as you walk out of the door. I didn't get alot of sleep last night, my hubby's snoring was as loud as a lawnmower, I need to pick up another box of snore strips to help me get some sleep.

@BarBaraPrz I'm picking up another box as soon as I finish work this afternoon. I forgot to pick up another box and found a couple of singles that I made him wear from samples that I received.

My walking is often out of order. I mean, you'd think I was drunk the way I stagger around. If only! I suppose I could use my cane more, or even pull out my mom's walker from the shed.

It did. I was just puzzled because I actually got plenty of good sleep last night.

Hubby tends to leave tools everywhere. I gather them and put them in cardboard boxes, IF he is not actively using them. Otherwise, if the project is ongoing, I leave them be. I wish I could get him to put stuff in the garage, and organize it a bit.

I am out of order today too. At least until my husband gets home. Usually I just spend my day in my funk and start fresh the next morning. It usually works.

I cannot do that. I am the one who goes out to work.

@JordanLader I often will "act as if"--as if all is well, I feel good, I am enjoying myself, etc. It does help.

@GardenGerty I still do whatever I have to do but I just don't adjust my mood. Or there's times like when we visited MD where I just fake it till I make it.

It is just hard to stay in routine and in order.
