I was shopping with my sister. and I got an office chair. as we were putting away stuff she said WHAT ARE YOU DOING! I was like uhh. she then said WHY DIDN'T YOU PUT THE DIAPER BAG IN THE CAR! (Me:I don't know)(I get into the vehicle) WHY DIDN'T YOU PUT THE CART UP!!! I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU MAKE IT SOMETIMES!! I was like oh. I sadly sometimes "don't get things." Is that normal as in AS normal?? (I tend to be clueless (that's the word I was looking for!!) How about anyone else here?

It sounds like you have trouble with self-care. Like doing the normal everyday stuff to take care of yourself. I'm pretty good at that, but struggle with some things - like I've posted before about trouble with meal planning. Have you ever lived by yourself yet? Being self-reliant will force you to have to take care of yourself. You can try to strike out on your own without moving out and living by yourself. Go shopping by yourself, even just window shopping. Go out to eat by yourself, or see a movie. Get a job, or volunteer somewhere. You will learn to keep track of things by necessity.

Lots of times little things just go over my head. I'm paying too much attention to something else or the way that something is "supposed" to be done does not make any sence to me. Then there are the ways that someone is used to doing something and expects you to do it that way... its all just confusing to me. As long as the way you do things works, doesn't hurt anyone, and leaves you reletively sane, I don't see the issue. *Shrugs*

Thanks maybe I had my mind on something else. (I don't think I did.) (Besides how I was going to get a 30LB chair out of the back of the vehicle.) Smile
