I opened a book while folding laundry, but keep rereading the same line.

I opened a book while folding laundry, and before I knew it, I’d lost focus and was reading the same line over and over.

Scenes

I opened a book while folding laundry. — I opened a book before I’d finished folding the laundry. I reread the same line, then closed it.
There’s still laundry on my mind. — I opened a book with half the laundry still to fold. Instead of the line I was reading, I keep thinking about the clothes left unfolded.
There are signs before your focus slips. — I didn’t lose my place as soon as I opened the book. My reading slowed first as I kept looking at the laundry left to fold.
Write down just one sign today. — When you open your book tonight, write one line about what you notice just before your focus slips. For example: “I keep looking at the laundry left to fold.”
Next time you open the book, start with that sign. — Next time you open your book, look first at the sign you wrote down today. See if it shows up again, and where you lose your place.
