What are you useless at

[Mups]

I am pretty useless at being organised.
I write down things I need to see to,  but  nearly always get distracted, and end up doing something entirely different.

I'm just the same.  It comes with old age.

It's nice to make an effort to write a list and work through it, now and again.

Trouble it, sometimes it takes longer to write the list of tasks than it does to do the tasks.

Ah, but if I just started to do the necessary tasks, after having done one or two I shall have forgotten the rest.
Some of us old people tend to forget things.

Now, what was I going to say?

Er, something about getting your trainers dry cleaned ? 🤷🏻�♂️😬

You can't dry clean trainers, you know.  I use water.

I forgot about that.  Must be an age thing.

That was also my check list for heading out with the dogs, all stuffed into my hoodie or jacket pockets.
Except for the dog leads they hung around my shoulders along with my camera.    Happy Days.

[muddy]

I hung the dog lead around my neck for a walk in the Arboretum and lost it .
I reported this in the office and they said check next time in case we find it .
I did so and they brought out a large cardboard box chock full of dog leads !
( there  are clearly  people out there as useless as me )
And yes mine was in there

Personally, I usually only need the first three, and occasionally the fourth.
Delete the last 4 items.
Cats are the real answer.  They are capable of going for a poo all on their own!

They are, I miss our old moggy.  🐈�⬛ i wouldn't miss the one that constantly uses our small front garden as their loo though!  Citrus oil doesn't work, or curry powder, or cayenne pepper. Any suggestions?

[klondike]

I need a daily one telling me what lists I need and where to put them    I'm forever forgetting stuff. A big notice in all the rooms saying "Don't forget the actual thing you came in her for" would be good. I'll go upstairs to get something spot something else that needs doing and come back down having forgotten why I went up in the first place. Open a cupboard door and wondering why is another favourite The funny farm is calling I fear.

You need another moggy.
I see ours going out for a you-know-what overnight on our security cameras.  Then, at other times, next-door's grey and white mog comes into the garden.  Fortunately, it avoids our cats and, as far as I can tell, doesn't use our garden as a toilet, fortunately.
