~Ran into a doorframe and said, 'Excuse me'? ~Picked up the receiver of the telephone and then not remember if you were answering the phone, hanging the phone up or fixing to make call? ~Tried to turn off the lamps with the TV remote? ~ Stepped outside and then not remember if you were standing there at the door to go in or had just came out? -Spiz

OK I do all those things and I dont have E so whats my excuse I think that maybe our minds just get so busy with so many other things that thats what we do shoot I can remeber wher guido put something last year but I can pick up a peice of paper look at it put it down then 2 minutes later cant find it because the tricky little bugger grew legs and moved its self. I think I am going to blame it on my family taking up all the brain cells I have left and I dont have any to use on myself. Pam

Pam, I think so too. There are so many things onboard at one time, some momories and thoughts sneak away and go on vacation or in hiding. The ones that go into hiding are the ones I'd like to 'peek-a-boo' upside the head! ...hmmmm - that would be my head, huh? Gonna have to think of a new punishment there. Smiles! -Spiz

- Have you ever gotten ready to go somewhere and end up going nuts trying to find your housekeys just to discover after 15-20 minutes of (a.)steam rolling out of your ears (b.) tearing up the house (c.) Slamming things around (d.) throwing a major hissy about 'if people would stay out of your things!'....that they were in your hand the whole time? - Do you ever have trash in one hand, important paperwork in the other; Toss the paperwork and file the trash? -Spiz
