Dementia anyone?

cat_mioux — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 06:09:03 GMT

Last week the kids found my hair clip in the fridge. I'd been looking for it for days.

Today I went to the supermarket and the kind check out lady whispered to me "I don't know whether to tell you this but your top is inside out".

😐

When I lose anything, first thing my OH says *did you look in the freezer*?

I have been known to accidently put things in the freezer that dont belong there.

I have worn things inside out before today

Just a lapse of memory, that is all it is:^O

I asked a friend what her address was.

She said "I can't remember I have Alzheimer's you know"

most likely just a lapse of memory

However, OH had been having similar type issues and Dr said it can be all sorts of minor things such as vitamin deficiencies or thyroid type issues ie things that you can have a blood check to test for, and can be very simple to fix

so if it continues, talk to your Dr

I walked out of the big K store, the other day with a rubber door wedge in my hand (that needed paying for).

I walked straight past the security person who was looking at me and she never said a word.

I realised about 2 steps out of the shop that I went to the wrong exit. I should have went through the self serve exit (it is a new store). So back I went and paid for it.

Preoccupied fits the silly things I have done like this (never walked out of a store without paying before though).

And I also wore this new top without cutting the price tag off but I shall blame my grand daughter for that one, being too busy with her demanding ways

I wore my top inside out a few weeks back and was told by a Woolies staff member. She said it was meant to mean good luck.

I thought I bought a packet of tampons once, but when I went to use them I couldn't find them. I searched everywhere and in the end decided I must have left them at the supermarket. It wouldn't be the first time I've left a bag of groceries at the supermarket.

About 6 weeks later I found the packet of tampons in the fridge 😐

(I have to say, you haven't lived until you've tried chilled tampons 😉 )

Wearing your top inside out is good luck. You should buy a lottery ticket.

Just wait until someone has to tell you that you forgot to put your top on altogether.

You're all showing early signs of dementia/living in a fast paced world/old age but pimpy takes out first prize.

:^O

I'll definitely buy a tatts ticket if wearing your top inside out is good luck! whoohoooo!

Carl my kids have been told if I leave the house without my top ... that's when they should start worrying.

There, there cat, you're quite safe - us oldies call them 'Seniors Moments' you get them as you get older, but while you recognise them you are okay, it's when you cease to notice you have a problem :^O
