Does distraction distract you? I don't think it does me. I've always been like this but it really stood out to me thanksgiving day. I was going to go upstairs for dinner and join my son, his wife, his three boys and their girlfriends. I had done some research on our ancestry and was going to tell them about it. Just an interesting tidbit that I thought they would enjoy knowing about our ancestor being part of the first thanksgiving. So the story was on my mind. I wasn't afraid I'd forget it and it wasn't important how it was told, but the story stayed in my mind ALL day long. It was actually getting on my nerves that it wouldn't leave the forefront of my mind. I tried playing my games, working my puzzles, doing some cooking, etc etc. I had hundreds of other thoughts shifting through my mind but the story stayed right there. No matter what I did, there it was.
It made me wonder if that's why it's so hard for me to let go of things sometimes - because no matter how hard I try it just won't leave.
