    When you go food shopping, pick up two of something because it's a good deal, get home and realize you already have two of the same item, one still unopened. Let's just say I have enough plastic wrap to last me a long ass time. :blush:

    I have to make a list. If I don't make a list I wander around the store and buy all the same stuff I already have at home. it's very sad.
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    Same here. I have to write everything down. Sometimes when I get up for something across the room I think I should fly notes over there to remind myself of why I got up to go there in the first place. :lol:

    I learned at work to leave a note on my keys. If I have something in the fridge to bring home or something dumb to do on the way home like get milk. If I have something at home to bring to work I call my house and lv a msg. When i get home and listen to it I put things right in my bag. If its in the fridge...another note on my keys.

    Also...at least 2 times a month I get to work and have left my coffee and my lunch home on the counter. Try as I might I do it all the time!

    Even more sad, it was on my list. I made the list while looking at the ad at my dads, saw the sale, thought I needed it, then while shopping, thought this is a great deal, I should buy two.

    We've been giving my dad a hard time (jokingly) because he has multiple everything.
    He has 4 jars of peanut butter, 5 cans of pineapple, etc. He's 82.

    I got home from shopping and realized what I did and could only shake my head.

    You stop at McDonald's on a road trip and hear Brian Ferry and the Bangles over the PA. You think, hey, they're finally playing more current music in these places and then realize that that's what now passes for oldies.

    I've done that. I realized why I didn't remember...I was trying to block out how bad it was.

    I just read malrith's comment, then read Suz's and thought suz was quoting malroth and...oh never mind...

    When an actress who is one day short of being exactly five years older than you has a Dame before their first and last name. This means you, Kate Winslet!

    Whoa! I didn't know that about Ms Winslet.

    You know your getting a little well aged when the cat treat end up in the fridge twice in one week and neither of you knows who but them there instead of their usual place in the cupboard. I've even found my keys in the fridge on occasion.

    Sometimes I feel like one of those corny old folks jokes in a Reader's Digest. Haha!
