Thinking about thinking again

It's been 5 weeks. Five whole weeks of being a mommy of two. Yep. Any maybe I'm naive but I didn't anticipate the drop in brain function. Maybe because this time it died slowly as I was pregnant running after a two year old so I didn't notice the change. That is until now. I've always struggled giving my full attention to things (I'm pretty sure I'm border line ADD) but it's so much worse now. I now find myself running from task to task and forgetting what I was in the middle of doing. The other day I about swirted my tooth brush with contact solution. Ya see!
So, in an effort to feel a little more human again, not so zombie, I'm thinking about picking up a book. Really just thinking about it. I'm realistic enough to know that actually reading a book for more than 2 minutes at a time would be impossible. Nonetheless (is that really one word?...) the act of thinking about it brings me out of the mommy fog and into the world where thought is a normal way of life. Baby steps. itty bitty baby steps.
