You decide to move your kitchen into your living room and vice versa.
Six months later you have an unfinished kitchen with a TV and sofa in it.

...You decide that you'd like to ask your GP for a referral for assessment, but that before that can happen you need to re-register with the practice because they took off their patient list 6 months ago when you missed an appointment that you'd meant to cancel and then didn't get around to replying to their follow-up letters telling you they were taking you off their patient list.

You meet an old friend by chance in the car park of a stately home near where you live, so you invite them back home for tea and cake and a chat. They follow your car, but you take a wrong turning looking for your own house. So have to pull over, go back and explain, turn round and try again. Or, another time, get lost after a simple errand dropping something off no more than a couple of miles away, and after looping around in vain for a while, give in and get the satnav to take you home. Luckily nobody else to see that one unless some net curtains were twitched by nosey parkers wondering why that car was going past slowly over and over again.

Your satnav says "at the end of the road turn left onto something street" and before its even finished speaking you're thinking "er... did that just say to go left or go right?!" doh!

...you lose £5k in bitcoins because you wrote the wrong details down. Ha! Snap! Well, I dunno about the exact amounts, but... when you open a BTC wallet, mine a few coins, let the novelty wear off after a week, casually make a note of the key in untitled document (344).txt on your desktop and then forget all about it the week after. And then a couple of years later remember you had a wallet with some BTC in it but can't find where you stored the key...

I vaguely remember pasting the wallet address into a text file thinking, 'Dayam! I'm so organised.' I used to love overclocking so I was mining to see what my hardware could do. I suspect the concept of the actual coins, wallet and private key eluded me. I think. Can't really remember I WILL recover that moola one day!

I didn't really get into it - mined a little and got a few from bitfountains etc, but that was it. This was in BTC's infancy, so there wasn't really any value to them at the time.
I've done a better job of keeping hold of my Ripple details (although that in itself was an effort to find them again).

...when for about the 10th time in a month a fully-laden builders' merchant's lorry stops outside your house and the driver stares at the house. You go outside to ask wagwan and get told 'your house looks like a building site and it's the address is near here'. "building site"?!? cheeky bastard. It's been at least 4 years since we did building work

You know you have adhd when you're best friend is talking to you about something serious and you are listening and replying as best you can but really in your head a flurry of images of pizza, her sister's - boyfriend's - cousin's holiday pics you saw on instagram, my ex girlfriend's cat and a new pair of shoes are being suppressed and you're like... fuck bring it back... "are you ok babe? I'm here for you i'm so sorry he broke up with you"... 😂🙈 ffs lol

You have several renew passport forms around the house because you keep misplacing them... and it's been a year and you still haven't renewed the damn thing. 😳

you are looking for something in your pockets but after a while realise you’ve forgotten which pockets you’ve checked. So you begin a more systematic search until after some time you realise you’ve forgotten what you were looking for. So you retrace your steps until you do remember, then recommence the search, but after a while realise... 😖

...when you find a damp patch on the floor, doesn't seem too bad... no localised overturned cups/glasses. Trace back to carboard bottle carrier containing various alcoholic presents (that are likely vintage by now), check each bottle - none are damaged. Try to imagine positions of water pipes in house (but water doesn't flow up!) boiler pressure okay - not that... no drips from ceiling... Something sounds wrong... clock louder? Something missing? Damp may be beside freezer, no coolant leak. But they contain frozen water... if they're turned on. Realise that (at some point) I've unplugged the freezer - has to have been me, no one else in the house! No idea when - oops! Certainly wasn't planned! But - I've been meaning to defrost it for YEARS, therefore can I call this a ADHD win!? Also, most of leaked water absorbed by pile of unopened/unread stuff - acted as a good sponge and now I can't read them = win-win! (Are we risk takers... if the defrosted meat still feels a bit cold, could I eat it all without dying?)

...you're advised by your consultant to inform the DVLA of your recent diagnosis, and the DVLA asks you to fill out a form and send it back to them.
A week and a half later you finally get around to filling out the form and putting it in the special envelope, then at the last minute on a Friday night you pop into town to post the form.
Unfortunately while the form was with you (you're sure) when you left the house, by the time you reach the post office you've somehow lost the envelope, and also the post office is closed because actually. it's not a Friday at all, it's a Sunday.

It was a shitty car - and I was living in London at the time - so no big deal 😏 Recently ticked some box on google maps and it now tells me where I parked my car 👍🏼

Half way through a walk in country you realise you have lost your wallet. Wife suggests it migtht be in yesterday's trousers. Get home to find she was correct.
Note to self - make a checklist by door. Wallet, Mask - nake an idiots list of cards to cancel.
