My brain is out to lunch

And I hope it decides to come back soon.

I have been so scatter-brained and distracted this week. I can't seem to focus on what I am doing, hence my brain is out to lunch. It's like my mind is constantly thinking, but not about what I am doing at the moment. I have had such a heavy heart for my friend Beth and I know that is the reason why.

And I have caught myself doing ridiculous things. Such as last night I made spaghetti for dinner. I sit down to eat and shake Parmesan cheese on my corn when I meant to put it on my spaghetti. And then I was making a dessert and I was looking for the package of mix to add to the bowl and I couldn't find it. Well, guess what. I had already poured it in the bowl about 2 minutes ago. It's just stupid dumb stuff really. But it's very irritating because I'll catch myself after I've done it. Ugh.

Or I will walk into a room and have no clue why I walked in that particular room or what I was going to do. Another example (and yes I have many as you can tell) is that I keep calling my kids the wrong names. That is not unusual at all since I seem to do it all the time. But the funny thing is that I am not catching myself doing it. I will be talking to Taylor and I'll use the name Carson and Taylor will look at me and ask if I meant him and I will say yes of course but he'll say I said Carson's name and then I get all confused and can't believe I didn't catch it. (Did you get all that 'cause I seem to be rambling?) I find it humorous when I start to catch myself saying the wrong name and then correct it midway through. I should just change my boys names to Carluke, Cartaylor, and Lucarson or Taycarson. That's what they're used to anyway.

I hope my brain decides to come back to earth soon otherwise I may have to go join it. I could use a vacation.
