Forgetfulness

Are you finding yourself forgetting a lot?

Hmmm.. did I turn off the iron and lock the door?
Forgetfulness is another thing we menopausal women have to deal with. I am now the sticky and I note queen! If I go to the store without a list, chances are I won’t be returning home with ALL of the things I went there for. Gone are the days when all I needed was my trusty memory to back me up! Now a days, if it ain’t on paper or in my I-Notes, most likely it’s not Gonna happen! Second guessing myself as to if I turned off the iron, stove or if I locked my home or car door is a new way of life, I just can’t seem to remember if I did it or not! I mean, I know that most people forget things here and there, but since menopause I’ve noticed an escalation in my forgetfulness, let’s not even mention how I run into my room in urgency to get something, but when I arrive there, I have no idea what I went in there to get! Huh! That drives me crazy!  So I do what we all do, walk back out of the room until I can remember what I was going in there for in the first place. Lol! Really,  you have to laugh at yourself sometime. :0))
