You can definitely join my club :)

I told the girls at work I was going to a wedding instead of "going to lunch"

They know me well and just replied "don't think much of the outfit!"

I have driven into a driveway thinking it was my house and sat there wondering who had painted my house pink.

I have stared at the oven knowing I need something before taking dinner out of it but not remembering I needed oven gloves and promptly burned myself quite badly.

We all do daft stuff like putting the milk in the oven and such like - all part of the fibro brain :)

I have just learned to laugh - no point doing anything else

Somebody else who has the same days i have,, I wonder if you have told your g.p about this? I asked mine to check me for Alzheimers I felt so bad last winter, this year I am just foregtting to take my meds or cannot remember if I have taken them so I am asking g.p for pills in dossette box, I get break thru pain which is not fibro related but my fibro pain relief used to help, I too get into a right mucking fuddle!!!
