Am I losin' it?

[Janet]

I went to town this morning after my bus route. After doing my banking, I went to Wal Mart to pick up a few items including a prescription. I got home and put everything away. A little while later the phone rings....it's Wal Mart. I had dropped my prescription in the parking lot and someone turned it in. Thank God for honest people.

When I got home...I noticed a tear in my bag, but even then...didn't notice the prescription missing. If they hadn't called...I probably wouldn't have thought about it until time to take it. Geez.....am I losin' it?

No, you're not losing it. You just hadn't thought about the prescription yet.

Losing it is when you can't remember buying clothes for a little girl just a couple of weeks ago.................as in my case. Dae Lynn was talking about clothes that I bought for Karlie and I really don't remember what I got or even that I bought them. I did finally remember that I had gotten her some socks!!! So..................I believe that I'm the one losing it!!!!!!

Of course you're not losing it!! I do stuff like that all of the time. Ummm...maybe we're BOTH losing it!

Seriously, give yourself a break. You have been under so much stress with your mom, Ricky driving back and forth to school, and school starting for you. Too much on your mind, my friend!!

You are definitely not losing it. Last summer I went to the grocery store, one that is like 25 min. away, got home, phone rings, I left my wallet in the shopping cart, like Janet said, thank God for honest people. Someone turned it in to the office and my phone # happened to be in it. I could not believe I did that. Oh well

You're not losing it, we all do that sort of thing from time to time, and we're all normal right?!

Now I lost it last time we went to San Antonio. I bought a bottle of Mexican vanilla at the market and when we got to Karen's apartment, I put it on her desk near where my bags were. When we got home and I unpacked, no vanilla. Karen is a very uncluttered person, and she cleaned after we left. The vanilla was no longer on her desk, or anywhere in her apartment, but it's not in our bags either. Vanishing vanilla. I really lost it!!

I can always count on you Kat.....



I'm sorry some of you have gone throught the same thing, but sure glad I'm not alone.

Janet, I have lost it so many times, I don't even remember what I LOST!!! I prefer to think that the file cabinets (in my brain) are so full of wisdom, there just simply isn't room for anything else!

[Janet]

I'm with you on that one Gayle!

That's about where I am too, Diana!

If you are losing it Janet, you must have a sense of humor about it! It's the only way to remain sane. Or maybe I am no longer sane either. I forget what sanity feels like.....

Okay, let me make you feel a little better Janet....(sorry this is long, don't know how to condense)

Yesteday was a very busy day. Worked in Corpus Christi, a couple of hours away. Got home around 5:30 had to transfer a bunch of pictures and put them on a flash drive for someone a church. Had trouble with the camera, battery died while trying to transfer. Got to Wednesday evening Bible class around 6:45. Last night was the last night of our Summer Series, our equivalent of Vacation Bible School and a dear friend was teaching and needed some help setting up. There were a couple of young ladies (Ashley and Caitlan) there who I put to work in our workroom putting some materials together, while I rushed to find some other needed items. Someone else ask me to give them some advise on how to put glitter on something.

While I was standing right outside the workroom, our daughter Melissa arrived and asked if I'd seen Ashley, she had something for her. I thought for a second and told her I thought she was down the hall in another classroom where she usually teaches the little ones and then I went about my chores.

Ashley was just a few feet away in the workroom where I'd left her. When I realized what I'd done, I felt so dumb. I ran to find Melissa but she was in her class and it had already started, so I texted her, and she and Ashley got together after serves. How ditsy can you get???

[Janet]

I sure am glad I'm not the only one....wow....I was beginning to get lonely...LOL

[DianaB]

I don't think that with all of us around the same age that you have to worry about feeling lonely!!!! I so love this group of women!!! It just makes my day to visit with everyone!!

It would be so nice if we could just get together and have a cup of coffee together every morning!!! I would just love that! We'd start each day with a lot of laughter!!!

Janet if you are losing it count me in as one of your peers.. I have been under so much stress these few weeks, I couldn't begin to start.. lol It's a hectic life out there and at times we have to misplace things. lol without remembering doing so..
