Last night I said to my daughter, I'm going to put that pork roast I got in the crockpot tomorrow morning.  I will be an easy dinner for tomorrow night.

 

Well, it's 2:10 in the afternoon.  Where is my roast? Still in the fridge.  I forgot completely about it.  I only remembered because I was on Allrecipes.com and saw crockpot recipes. Lightbulb came on and it was son of a biscuit, my roast.

 

I swear this lockdown is turning my brain to mush.  No appointments to remember, no dinner plans w/friends to remember etc.  I don't remember what the date is half the time.

Don't feel too bad.  At one point today I actually had to think about whether we are in April or May!  It all just seems to blend together.

Cute! This was definitely me today.  I actually had to look at the calendar on the wall to convince myself this is May.  Seemed like it should be April.

@haddon9  So true.  It's the monotony, everyday feels the same. If it weren't for TV programming you wouldn't be able to tell Sunday from Friday. It's mind numbing.


This haopened to me last week. I thought it was Sunday. I turned on the tv and said hey those people aren't on on the weekend.

I'm okay,  no more stupid than usual.

 

I don't understand why staying at home would make anybody more stupid.   To begin with, did you people stay on the road all day long before the stay at home order was in place?

 

And, @CrazyKittyLvr2  you may have forgotten to put the roast on in more normal times..

Is it actually called a "lockdown" or *shelter in place"?


Neither in my state.  It is called a Stay at Home Ordinance..

Re: This Lockdown Is Making Me Stupid.

I just put the entire box of dryer sheets in with the load of wet wash.

 

I wondered why it was so fragrant when I started taking things out. Then I started finding sheet after sheet with the clothes. It was a new box with 50 sheets. I stuffed them back in the box, which was also in the dryer,  and will use 2 per load.

 

I don't even know how that happened. Gremlins.

Oh @noodleann , thanks so much for the big laugh.  I can picture that discovery and the fragrance emitting from the dryer.  Too funny!  You were a woman with a mission!
