Don't You Remember??

Here comes the quote of the day, I think it's funny:

Note to Self: 
Write a note to remind myself of 
where I put the last note I wrote.

Oh memory, how I took you for granted. I didn't think I would have these issues until my 80s. Pretty sure someone in their 80s were more on the ball than I am these days. If you experience these problems or something close to what I'm about to give you, well see you're not the only one. NO it's not just something that WE ALL do. I loath that response. 

Making those posted videos are actually pretty difficult for me. I have to try and organize my thoughts and keep them more than usual. When I have a conversation in person or on the phone I have some serious Rain Man moments. Just the speech, not the exceptional knowledge. 

I stutter. I start speaking then.......................about that long of a pause. Finding words is a nightmare. You know the scene in Titanic when Rose is trying to say propeller? She keeps making the motion of the propellers to try and get the word out. Well I do that about 100+ times a day. Not all come from an absence seizure either. It's permanent. 

I misplace things ALL the time! For a week I kept putting the milk in the cupboard. Then I would see the fridge and realize that I had just put the damn milk in the damn cupboard. Joel will ask me where I put something. I give him that 'deer in the headlights' look. Wait for it, wait for it...."OH! I put your hat upstairs on the couch." Does that seem like a logical location? Now he just puts it on the dresser. 

Wait, what were we talking about? Oh my memory! 😂

This is what happens most of the day. Even more so when no one is home. I start thinking of something I need to do or get. I might pace between the kitchen to the living room. The living room to the bedroom. The bedroom back up to the living room. The bedroom to halfway up the stairs, then back down to the bedroom. This maze chase happens at least twice a day.

"Gabby, what are you doing?" 

"I was going to get something out of the kitchen."

"Well what are you looking for?"

"IF I KNEW I WOULDN'T BE PACING BACK AND FORTH!"

Something like that. I get so pissed when I can't remember what the fuh I'm doing. There's so many stupid little things that mess up my day too, too bad I can't remember them right now.

I'm surprised Joel hasn't had to make a missing persons call. If I didn't take Pepper on walks, that's probably how it would go. So who's really walking who?? I think Pepper is walking her Mommy. So sad. good thing she's so smart. She's like SUPER PEPPERS!!!!
