Senior Moments

Lady Phyllis, yes... Heat stroke would be a disaster at this point and not a viable option at all.

I was thinking about death.

Growing old is not for wimps.

Growing.old is not for the young!

I have to coordinate between an eye surgeon, my caseworker and someone to take care of the apartment as well as the s! *scream*

How is it going regarding your cataract surgery?

How is it going regarding your cataract surgery?

I've gotta coordinate everything , especially transportation (they won't perform the surgery unless the patient has a ride home (that requires contact with my caseworker.)

I need a shot of some potent potable...

A truism if ever I saw one!

How many here can empathize?

Does this sound vaguely familiar?

Just found out that I have to take 1,500 mgs of metformin (my a1cs were above nine.)

Gotta pick up my new prescription.

I do get irritated more easily by others' carelessness that makes my own life that bit more difficult: website and timetable errors, etc. Big things are easier to accept with patience, but niggly things that could easily be fixed can get me muttering and fuming, lol ...

The hair thing.

 

[RJM]

The hair thing.

I know ... like having to shave my nose

 

[Cino]

I know ... like having to shave my nose

I know, right? And my earlobes. Like I'm descended from a monkey or something

 

[Aupmanyav]

How is it different from shaving? Just removal of unwanted hair.

 

[Namaste Jesus]

Are you like me... do you wonder about things in your old age? Like this morning when I noticed all these strands of gray hair on my pillow. "Wonder what the hell kept it in yesterday?"

 

[Aupmanyav]

No. No wonder. It is the way it happens to nearly all people. I am cool about it.

Senior moments getting worse, I can stare at old friends trying to think of their names

But I get to meet a lot of people again, and reminded of stupid things I did! It's an adventure, my mom is 94 and I can see she is starting to have issues, and as I consider what needs to be done there...I dust off the mirror...

But hey, I have now made it 4 years since my premature demise, 3 years since they went back in to finish the job, and I am now walking, riding bikes, camping, trying to get back on unicycle, the other day I put on clothes including socks, standing up!

But no clue what I had for lunch

Color me thankful to be.

 

[Aupmanyav]

But no clue what I had for lunch.

Perhaps you are thinking about dinner.

Dean Nicholson realizes that he had a "senior moment" here:

He forgot that he had some fresh prawns in his wee fridge, and they got a bit "ripe" in his van
