Sounds like my life - youngest son is 17

Sunday nights at 8 I like to watch the amazing race when it's on. This is pretty much my only "me"time.
One night I was getting ready for my "me time"
Poured myself a pepsi grabbed my favorite puzzle book and went upstairs.
got upstairs realized the tv remote was downstairs went down to get it
saw my puzzle pencil on the counter picked it up went back upstairs
forgot the remote - went back downstairs
noticed the dog water was empty- filled water bowl went back upstairs
forgot the remote - went back downstairs
saw my cigs and lighter on the coffee table picked them up and answered the phone
finished conversation, grabbed the remote and went upstairs forgetting my smokes next to the phone
went back downstairs - used bathroom while I was there
washed my hands and went upstairs leaving my smokes in the downstairs bathroom
went back downstairs and grabbed smokes
Now my dh is looking at me like I have 3 heads because I'm frustrated at myself and he says to me
"honey what are you trying to do???"
"I'm just trying to watch the amazing race and do a crossword puzzle and I can't seem to organize myself well enough to accomplish this. Why do you ask?"
"Honey," he says to me "you do realize it's Saturday don't you?
I reached for a candy bar at this point only chocolate was going to improve my mood.
