Hi Barbara,

Yep, Jill was in good form last night, wasn't she. LOL. I got a good laugh out of that too, when I saw it last night.

If forgetfulness is the primary prerequisite for a dementia test, then I reckon a lot of us need that test. Hell, I've been forgetting things all my life. If that weren't the case, then I should have made a perfect score on virtually every test that I ever took while in grammar school, high school, college, grad school, on the job, or wherever. I've forgotten most of what I ever learned, and folks who claim that they haven't, can always be proven to have a much higher opinion of themselves than is warranted. LOL.

I'll go so far as to say that being forgetful is an honor, because it puts us in the company of geniuses. Stories about Albert Einstein's forgetfulness are legion, but I really like this one in particular: One day when he on his way to an important meeting, Einstein telephoned his wife and asked, "Where am I and where am I meant to be?"

Yep, I'm proud to be forgetful, and you should be too.

Luve,
Galahad

Hi Barbara...glad I made you smile! I too am forgetful...there is so much to juggle in our lives and "stuff" to remember that it is impossible to remember it all. Of course we can talk about anything here...we are here to support each other!



Love......JJ
