Life is getting a bit weird these days.

While I don’t consider myself smarter than the average bear, I do have a reasonably good memory. I love answering most of the questions on quiz shows, and at 79, I often impress my family.

But…

This morning, something very strange happened.

I was upstairs making the beds, something I do every morning. After making the first bed, I turned around to make the other one, only to find it had already been made. I stood there for a while, staring at it, sure I had not done it.

The trouble is, no one else owned up to doing it.

I am obviously at the right age for a few memory problems. I won’t use the name as I don’t want to bring it to me. I am kinda hoping it will give me a miss!

Any stranger happenings, though, and I shall start to worry, as most of the rows between me and my sister are based on one of us not remembering something correctly. I hope this doesn’t get any worse, as neither of us like giving in, or admitting we were wrong, so God help us!

As a carer, I know how difficult this job can be at times. If I could choose the next stage of my life, it would be that neither of us loses our marbles. Or that both do. Just one of us would be so unfair…

  1. It’s so easy to disconnect when doing a mundane chore that you repeat daily, Jaye. Don’t worry too much. I’m sure your mind was somewhere else while making the bed. It’s happened to me.

    1. As long as that’s what it is, Jan… I need my brain!

  2. You sound pretty all together to me. Take comfort in knowing if, heaven forbid, “it “ happens, it will be their problem then. 🥰

    1. I suppose it will, won’t it?

      1. Just kidding. Have a beautiful day!
