I call them senior moments.

You know, when you run down the stairs for something, but by the time you get to the bottom you've forgotten what it was. You call your daughter to tell her something, but when she answers your mind is a blank. Your glasses have disappeared even though you had them 5 minutes ago and you haven't left your bedroom. You can't remember whether or not you took your pills, even though the pill bottle is in your hand. So many examples!!

Here's my latest. I couldn't find my coffee. Searched everywhere. <sigh>

Shhhhh don't tell anybody but I just had a senior moment about 30 minutes ago.

I grabbed the keys to the shed, hiked all the way out there, opened the door and then just stood there in the middle of the floor like a big dummy for 'X' period trying to remember why in the hell I came out there to begin with........after a bit the little light finally came on and I remembered that I was supposed to grab the full two gallon gas can that I filled yesterday for the mower that was still in the garage and bring it to the shed.

It seems like the more senior I get the more senior moments I have......luckily so far I haven't forgotten where the refrigerator is. :)

yesterday I asked my local taxi company to pick me up from the train station.Pity I was a five minute walk away in MacDonalds car park!!Force of habit...
 
Rushing outside locking the door behind me and going to the car.
Reaching for the keys in my pocket then realizing I left the keys in the house and I've locked myself out.
 
Searching the parking lot for the car

It starts as a nonchalant stroll

Internal panic sets in when realizing it’s the wrong lot

Strolling, half running, to the other side of the mall
Finding the car
Feeling for the keys
Then seeing them in the ignition

Good thing you brought the phone
…safely secure in the glove compartment
 
OMG!!!thankyou for mentioning this!
I have a black 2012 Nissan Sentra,do you have any idea how many fricking black cars there are in a parking lot and they all look exactly alike!!!!!
My son found this car for me and its wonderful but I bust his chops all the time because I was looking at a lime green chevy aveo but he didnt like the dealer,I always tell him at least I wouldn't be wandering the parking lot like some type of vagabond, lol
Its especially fun in our upstate NY winters:)
 
My biggest problem is when I'm cleaning house and doing the dusting. I will be dusting and look back and think "Have I already dusted that" and of course, I don't remember. So, I go back and do it and that probably made two times but I tell myself it's better to be done twice than none at all.

Down here they are all white.
 
I have a white pickup. Nissan Frontier. It's really fun at Home Depot or Lowes when half the lot is white pickups.

I removed IER from FRONTIER on the tailgate, so now it says front on the back, and sprayed the Nissan shield on the front blue (usually chrome). But from the sides they all look the same, almost regardless of brand.
 
I never paid attention to how the nissans,kias,hyundais all have the identical body styles...
