Wait a minute, I do have a blog entry here...just give me a minute and I will remember it.....
Oh yes, it is the memory that is seriously lagging....that's what I'm going to write about.
About 5 years ago I took a class entitled " How to know if you have Alzheimer's."
After sitting through the class. I was assured that as long as I'm still wearing the same color socks every morning, and as long as I can remember, when reminded by someone about something that I don't remember , No Worries...
It's all good.... Because the memory dulls with Age...
So when I cannot find my purse which I just brought from the car, or my sunglasses that I just took off, or the list that I made so that I would remember what needed to get done today. No Worries....
It's all good...Because the memory dulls with Age...
Or those times that I run into someone I know I know, but I can't remember from where I know her, let alone her name. No Worries....
Can't tell you how many times I've walked downstairs only to forget why I'm down there, or what I came for. No Worries...
It's all good...Because the memory dulls with Age...
Yesterday I was ordering something over the phone.
"Mam, I just need you to verify your address."
"Aaah? My addresssss isss." This can't be happening I think to myself in a panic. Maybe I should hang up and start all over again. That will give me time to think of my address..No Worries...
It's all good...Because the memory dulls with Age...
And what about those numbers we have to remember and keep straight. Bank accounts, social security numbers, pin numbers for credit cards and those infamous passwords. I try to keep it simple. Same combinations. How come we can't have one number for everything I'm wondering. Like the number 5...The good thing here is that they will send your password reminder to your e-mail , but my only problem is that I have 2 e-mails and I can mix them up especially since they have two differnt passwords. No Worries....
It's all good...Because the memory dulls with Age...
Funny thing about my memory. My long term memory is not as big a problem as my short term memory.
While I may not be able to remember what I had for breakfast or what someone said 5 mins ago.
I seem to be able to remember some things vividly from 25 years ago.
Hmm, Strange thing the memory, it just dulls with age, but it's all good, as long as I keep on wearing the same color socks every morning I have nothing to Worry about.

What if you intentionally wear different colored socks every morning?
Or is that called denial?
If so, I'm afraid I might have Alzheimer's.
I don't know. As long as I never take my socks off I'm good.
