Add ten years to thatโ€ฆ.to heck with the blueprints, just make sure you have enough scaffolding around.

Haaaaa!.... that's funny... I'm in my mid to late sixties and can sooooo relate. Like going to another room to do or say something and being clueless when I get there as to what is was.

I hope you feel better to know, thatโ€™s not even an age thing. They did a study on the common phenomenon of losing your thought when going throw a doorway. So dont be too hard on yourself. Ive trained myself to repeat what is I need while going through a doorway that way the thought doesnโ€™t float away:)

Great advice, thank you.... I probably should just hang a note pad and pencil around my neck... it's all good.... I just laugh mostly and tell myself it must not have been that important to remember anyway....

Oh... now that's even a challenge to stand up, it takes me a min. to get my knees working... who said the 'Golden Years' were supposed to be that wonderful twilight in our lives of rest and relaxation.... haaaa!... as a kid I hated taking naps.... now I live for one.
