That's how 'much' this one has accomplished at once... and she usually starts to fray in ability after the third unrelated task (note that healing involves situational awareness of 5 people including yourself and their hitpoint bars and anything you need to dispell from them).
That's a lot. I don't know how you're able to juggle so many things.

I think that's true. My mother does that also.
While googling this topic, I found some studies which suggest that women are better multi-taskers than men:

Also, this may or may not be true, but I read in a book that women's brains may have evolved in such a way as to make it easier for them to multi-task because (as mothers) they oftentimes have to look out for their babies while doing other work at the same time like cooking, for example. So, the theory is that multi-tasking was something that women were more exposed to than men and that's why they slowly got better at it.
