Great way to make sure you hear the timer if you're cooking something, and easy to use.

For those of us with ADD, this is a great way to keep track of time for anything. Need to get in the shower in half an hour? If I'm on the computer, I might lose track of that. But not if I set this baby. It's right around my neck, so my chance of losing it is greatly reduced.

Also, we ADDers have a hard time getting started on tasks, especially big ones. What I do is tell myself "I'll just work on it for 10 minutes; I can do anything for 10 minutes." (This is where you set the timer.)

Ten minutes is usually enough to get my hyperfocus to kick in, so I often keep going and get a good part of the task done. Also, I'm very oppositional and I don't like being interrupted by timers, so this is a great way to be able to blow it off without getting in trouble.

I think only someone else with ADD would fully understand that last bit.

After just burning a beautiful omelet into a crisp brown coaster, I can now say there is nothing in the world I desire more than this handy dandy timer.

This timer on a rope is for all the forgetful people like me who've had to wash a load of clothes 3-4 times because we've forgotten to dry it time and time again. For those of us who accidentally stay up 'til 4 am browsing sites like thisnext, and for anyone else who probably won't remember to buy this great product in the first place :) (via LISAJAY)

I really need this. Great timer. (via LISAJAY)

I love this list, I love the recommendations. You feel really dumb sometimes if you are an adult with "ADD". Rock on with your awesome recommendations. (via LISAJAY)
