Terrible coordination

I dropped my hat on the floor of a very bright place today and in my confusion, when my husband and I were directed into an office, I actually walked right past where we are supposed to sit and found myself following the man and my poor husband had to redirect me and point to the chair next to him. I felt mortified and it makes me so flustered.

After we had completed the necessary action, I needed desparetely to visit the toilet and so, my hubby asked ( I can ask too, but he chose to) and the man showed me where the toilet was and so, because I know how bad I am, I tried to make a mental note.

On coming out of th toilet, I was lost. I started to panic, because there seemed no way out and oh, how thankful and again, so embarrassed when my husband opened a door and said: I am here darling. He heard my confused walking and realised I had got lost.

This happens all the time. It is like a totally different lay out when I come out of a toilet or if I am confused about something, I walk the wrong way.

Just makes me want to never go out again!
 
Try going gluten free. I dont believe in such nonsense fad but the differnce was so amazing that I dont feel handicapped anymore. I'm a different person than I'd ever been.
 
Coordination is an issue for me as well. I know it can be tough but the trick is to get used to it and find ways to be more coordinated.
 
I remember once I went into a supermarket that I don't normally go into, in the evening, but by the time I was done shopping and came out, it was dark; I didn't recognise my surroundings, I felt like I was in a completely strange place and didn't know where I was, I was completely disorientated. It was a bit scary, actually.
