It was only after my husband says to me, Why aren't you in your comfies?

I put stuff down and then spend so much time trying to figure out where I put them. I put stuff in weird places. Yesterday my husband was trying to be funny and make a joke out of it and I snapped at him. I told him, it wasn't funny and it's f-ing frustrating. I can see from his stand point why its so funny. I was just irritated. But looking in the from the outside I have to say, it was funny.

The not-so-funny part is how often and how much time this really takes up. Between that and the multitasking deficiet I really feel frustrated alot of the times.
You are in such good company! I joke that I used to have 10 balls in the air intentionally, now I have 10 balls in the air because I forgot they were in the air.
The funny thing is how they seem to defy gravity and just stay there indefinitely.
I sympathize with your frustration, believe me. With PCS, sometimes your choice is to laugh about it or cry about it and sometimes it's not even a choice. Try to hang in there. It's great that you have family support that can keep you grounded.
