It happenned again. I'll catch up.
Routines are very important for us Sperbergers - often if we don't do stuff in the order we've set up for ourselves, we forget to do it entirely. That could be exceptionally bad in situations like remembering medication or putting on pants, so we often pursue our routines with single-minded fervor, brushing off any outside interference.
Eventually, the time will come when you can't brush off the interference - some emergency at home, a priority shift at work, etc. At that point it may seem that all is lost and the day is ruined. Try to think of it as the day being different - you're out of your comfort zone for sure, but this is a good chance to test your life skills. Odds are you'll forget something - don't beat yourself up over it. If you forgot something trivial, you consider it a learning experience; if you forget something critical, somebody will probably be willing to to the beating for you. Save your energy.
