These are things that scare me.Yesterday I could not remember whether or not the queen mother had died.My husband reassured me that she had ,quite a while ago,but I didn't quite believe him!Now,I feel absolutely bonkers because I can't believe I couldn't remember that yesterday.Does anyone else get that?i feel so stupid!

Haha, that's actually very funny because I had exactly the same problem last week. My hubby thought she was still alive (but he's Belgian and doesn't speak a word of English, so we'll forgive his lack of knowledge) and I said that she died quite a while ago. But, as soon as I'd said it, I thought - did she? I suddenly didn't have a clue :rotfl:

So in short, yes, I get that and a whole lot more. I am constantly having to ask people for the same info twice or three times over and I can't remember loads of things which I knew inside out. Thankfully I can usually hide my forgetfulness (at least in my work) thanks to the net. I often have to look up things that I knew but have forgotten.

I get that when i've done to much and am tired.

I forgot what year in college my daughter was in,,, she's in the U.S., her sophomore year and i thought she was a freshman. The yaer is almost over so its not like it just started and i was still in freshman year.

Its embarressing. But that is what happens.

Again!! Wow, that's another thing. I forget what years my kids are in too but it's really shameful as they are 10 and 8 and live with me most of the time!!!

It's comforting to know I am not the only one... I quite often can't remember saying something to someone and end up telling them twice. Funny thing is I might only have told them 10 mins ago DOH:lol:

I must admit though it is worse when I'm tired!

P.S my husband always gets me when he asks me what year we were married in?God! don't test me!it was 2003,but sometimes I just can't remember...I think that's right!?!...:blush:

I always forget how old I am, always have to count five backwards to figure out how old my sister is, and two forward for my brother. I once forgot in front of everyone in the lobby what apartment I lived in, 5, my neighbor cruel he is had me convinced I lived in apartment 7.:blush: I always have to call and see when someone is coming to get me, what time an appointment is, I must look up, set the alarm even in the afternoon, and forget about knowing what show comes on when on tv, especially since I can no longer rely on the tv guide on channel 23, the new cable company took that channel out of my package--I think I will never see my favorite shows again, if I have to rely on memory.:worried: Karly

Don't even ask me how old my cousins are that's hopeless.......

 

[julsie]

Ha! Ha!that's so funny Karly because I forgot how old I was and was telling everyone I was 37 when I was 36 for a whole year until my husband pointed it out!:lol: felt like I'd missed out on a year of my life durr!
