Right? "Forgetting things" is one thing...but whenever I have a home project I spend more time looking for my hammer multiple times than I do actually working. As an example.

I have 5 hammers, 2 identical drills, and 4 box cutters because of this.

I have some 20 pair of scissors for the same reason.

I don’t even want to know how many screwdrivers I’ll find when I pack my shit to move.

Object permanence is a big problem. A big expensive problem. I can set something down right in front of myself and lose it basically immediately.

This is the way. Picked this habit up from Adam Savage’s book.
