Yesterday’s post reminded me of when we visited Kaitlin when she was in graduate school years ago. She was carrying a thick day planner and said,
This is my brain!
Fortunately my life isn’t nearly as hectic as hers was, but when it starts to feel too full it does help to consciously slow down and make a list of things I don’t want to forget. That way I can focus on one thing at a time and not clutter up my brain with the other things.
