Why oh why did I make an appointment for 10:50 am? I don’t even get up until 10:30 am. This morning I have an ultrasound to check on my cancer status so I got up at 9 am.
I followed my regular schedule; read the news online, checked email, drank a breakfast smoothie, and fed the dogs and cats. I showered and dressed, ate 3 antacids, took a Xanax and hopped in my car.
I left at 10:50, the exact time I was supposed to be at the hospital. This is an ADHD thing, we joke that for us being there at 10:50 registers in our brains as “have to leave at 10:50”. For me this was actually early. My brain usually registers a 10:50 appointment as “have to get in the shower by 10:50”.
