Why is it that ladies have better memories than men?

I do remember that I was laying in my cradle in the living room and they watched something like a Western with Indians and cowboys fighting. The Indians were on the left. And that scary thing in my crib with no arms and legs, that was a baby toy I got from my aunt, I heard later.

At 3 I was biking behind the flat on my 3 wheeler and I found a little spade and took it, thinking: I found it. 2 older boys came and hit me on my hand and called me a thief and I cried very loud going home and an older girl I knew in the elevator asked me if I was okay, but I kept crying and didn't answer because I wanted to go to my mommy.

My neighbour friend who was also 3 visited and threw her jacket on the floor and I was shocked because my mom put up a strict tone to her, saying: you may not throw that on the floor and I was like: oh no! This cannot be! My mother is angry, but pfew she was just making a joke.

My very first memory had me laying on a table. My father was diapering me. To the left was our little 9 inch Philco tv with legs. They were watching Milton Berle a famous comedian in the 1950s. My dad stabbed me, not too hard, with a diaper pin because he was laughing so much at the tv

That was an infant memory but I have toddler ones too.

Your mother allowed you out alone at 3? No siblings were with you?

Yes crazy isn't it? I could just play behind the flat alone. We were on the first floor, but still.
 
I visited a nephew the other week, and like me, he's a bit scatterbrained.

His missus told him to switch the kettle on and make a pot of tea.
I could see he was giving me his attention but she cut in with, "Make sure there's enough water in the kettle, Jim, the teabags are in the caddie next to the bread-bin, the bread-bin is next to the toaster...... oh get out of the way Jim, I'll do it myself, go on, the pair of you, park your backsides in the lounge, I'll bring your tea in to you." 😊
