A Day in My World

Let me give you a little day in my world.

I wake up, go to make a cup of tea, take the milk out… and pour it everywhere because I didn’t put the lid on properly.

Strong start.

I decide I’m going to get organised. Tidy the cupboards. Sort my life out.

Ten minutes later everything is on the floor and I’ve somehow made it worse. I just stand there looking at it thinking… how.

Then I make food. Or try to.

Whole plate straight on the floor.

And at this point I’m not even shocked. It’s just up, down, up, down… cleaning up after myself like it’s part of the day.

So naturally, I start asking myself…

What is this?

Is it hormones?
Is it ADHD?
Is my brain just not working properly?

Because it’s not just clumsy, is it.

It’s like my brain is always somewhere else. Thinking about ten things at once. Half way through one job and already onto the next in my head.

So my hands are doing one thing
and my mind is somewhere completely different.

And things get dropped.

Spilled.
Knocked over.
Forgotten.

There’s also that layer of tiredness. The kind that sits underneath everything. Where you’re not exactly exhausted, but you’re not fully switched on either.

And that’s when it happens the most.

But here’s what I’ve realised.

The same brain that forgets to put the lid back on the milk
is the one that notices everything.

It’s the brain that reads people quickly.
That feels things deeply.
That connects dots without trying.

It just doesn’t do neat and tidy.

It doesn’t move in straight lines.
It moves fast, sideways, backwards, all at once.

And maybe that’s why it looks like chaos on the outside.

I used to think I needed to fix this.
Be more organised. More together. More in control.

Now I’m not so sure.

Maybe it’s hormones shifting things.
Maybe it’s ADHD showing up more.
Maybe it’s just a busy brain doing what it does.

Either way, I’m learning to laugh at it a bit more.

Because if I don’t, I’ll spend half my life annoyed at spilled milk and dropped dinners.

And honestly, there are worse things.

So if your day ever looks like this…
if you’ve ever stood in your kitchen surrounded by chaos thinking “how have I done this again”

You’re not alone.

You’re just living in a brain that doesn’t like to sit still.

And maybe that’s not something that needs fixing.

Maybe it just needs understanding.
