You know you have cognitive overload when you look at your to-do list and realize that item number one is "do the" because you got so distracted by everything you have to do that you forgot to actually list what it is that you need to do

So much this.
My notebook is full of quick notes - and I keep flipping forward to take new ones, so the actions noted a few hours ago are now several pages back.
Sometimes, I get to them.
@annaleen I literally had a to-do item earlier this week saying “do the thing I promised whatshername”.
Thank you, past-me, that was a very useful note
@annaleen Just add in "...rest of the stuff on the list"
@annaleen It was not until I was well into nominally adult age that I understood the degree to which Frog & Toad were aspirational non-fiction.
@annaleen i bet it was supposed to be "do the macarena"
@annaleen item 1 is always "make list".. bit meta, but you can strike that one off immediately when list is made and move right to item 2 cup of tea
@annaleen
Sometimes I keep those as recurring reminders.
