Handy Hint of the day

Don't make yourself a warming mug of Bovril then absentmindedly forget what it is and add milk. Urgh!

On leaving my local shop, going to the bus stop (just outside) I carried on walking wondering where the heck was I going... Sooo much the wrong direction and is 21 too young for a senior moment??

[waterboatman]

Senior moments came at any age alba. Me? I have the odd lucid moments.

[mike11111]

Not at all. I started getting them when I was 14, and I'm 61 now. Once spent an hour walking in the wrong direction before I realised. Of course by that time the last bus back had gone so I had to retrace my steps.

lol I like the thought of lucid moments.

Had to up me age when eldest turned 10, he's now 18!

[waterboatman]

It's a shame they have to grow up isn't it. Makes you realise your own age.

Don't make a cup of tea and put salt in it. I took a big gulp! My sugar/salt containers look similar. Now kept on seperate shelves.

I Can't Remember!
Just a line to say I'm living,
that I'm not among the dead,
though I'm getting more forgetful
and mixed up in the head.
I got used to my arthritis,
to my dentures I'm resigned,
I can manage my bifocals
but God I miss my mind,
For sometimes I can't remember,
when I stand at the foot of the stairs,
if I must go up for something,
or have just come down from there.
And before the fridge so often,
my poor mind is filled with doubt,
have I just put food away,
or have I come to take some out?
And there's the time when it is dark
with my nightcap on my head,
I don't know if I'm retiring,
or just getting out of bed.
So if it's my turn to write to you,
there's no need for getting sore,
I may think that I have written
and don't want to be a bore.
So, remember that I love you
and wish that you were near
but now it's nearly mail time
so I must say good-bye dear,
There I stand beside the mailbox
with a face so very red,
instead of mailing you my letter,
I opened it instead!
