I'm in the early memory loss phase. It does have a bonus.

Don't want to make fun of a serious problem. But when the problem has a upside what the heck I'll take it.


I can watch a movie 3/4 of the way through before I realize I've seen it before. Sometimes less or maybe more but the point is I totally get to enjoy it all over again.

So there is that at least....




Hey!-Heart flurry!

Thanks Y'all very happy to be hearted!

It has been a problem for a while now-I have dry erase boards placed strategically to leave reminders. I write anything important down right away and that helps a lot.

But I was told by the Dr yada yada so I started riding a indoor bike. I use a tablet to pass the time.

I ran out of interesting new stuff so I decided to re-watch a show I've waited for every epsiode.
Brand new to me pretty much the whole thing so far. That pretty much drove it home & I figured I should at least go with the bright side.

And energy.
Makes sense, tho. they slow down your whole system.
any chance a medicine is affecting your memory? Something not much talked about.

I got halfway through before I realized it. (I did read it a long time ago). Anyway, I'm still reading it. I wonder how it ends.
