How often do you brain fart?

[Mekon]

Today I went somewhere, but the first part of the route was a route I travel 4-6 times a week. So my brain farted and I went on the preprogrammed route. About 10 km later I realise I'm not going to where I want to go.
I recall doing something similar when my kids were small. 1 was in creche and 2 in primary school. Dropped the 2 at school and drove off and asked my youngest a question. Got no reply. Turned and looked at the back seat, she wasn't there. I panicked because my child had disappeared before I realised that she didn't come with that day because my wife dropped her.

My mind is so preoccupied that things like this happen often.

Try practicing 'Mindfulness', helps the mind to stay in the present.

My memory sucks in general.
Conversations with peope about what I recall are so far apart from what actually happened at the time.

It's different if I type a message here. Then my mind works.
Amongst people my embarrassment level is above any charts.
I've learned to say fk it. People know I'm nuts at times
