For those who suffer from Home Depot Attention Deficit Disorder(HDADD), you are not alone. This illness strikes millions of people every year. Maybe not millions, but a lot. Here are some signs to watch for.
You go to HD for an AC vent. While looking at the parts you notice you are right next to plumbing. Well you need a couple of parts to finish the pond, so you pick them up. Asking about zip ties for duct work you are directed toward electrical. Need an electrical outlet anyway for another project. Next aisle over is building supplies and you need spackle to fix some holes. While looking at spackle, you've already picked up some new tools to apply it, you notice GreatStuff foam. Remembering having read an article about GreatStuff for ponds that is fish safe, you head out to the garden center. Not there but you do see some landscaping rock that would look really cool for the pond.
Several hours later you arrive home, two hundred dollars poorer, with lots of cool stuff. Except the AC vent and zip ties that you originally went for. Hopefully your significant other is a kind, understanding person, like my sweet, wonderful wife. There is no cure. Symtoms can only be monitored, never fully controlled. And if anyone is feeling kind, flowers can be sent to the local hospital. Not that I could see them right now.
