Ok so I had a huge brain fart. Please tell me someone else has had this problem before. It's like all of a sudden you forget how to do something you've done a million times before, and the harder you try to figure it out the tireder you get and the fuzzier your brain becomes. I forgot how to enter my password right. Still doesn't explain why it wasn't saved, so that I wouldn't have had a problem in the first place.

Had to ask my wife what my middle name was. How can one forget their name?

Easy I've forgotten my first name lost my purse with hundreds of dollars in it, we use cah only since a bank account is too much stress for me, and the purse thing has happened more than once I'm ashamed to say. Now I am paranoid about it. I've forgotten my keys, I even forgot my kid once, how do you forget a kid. thanks for the feedback.

I hate memory lapses. I've had such lapses to every possible degree!
"What was I JUST thinking of?!"
"I had a great idea, but I forgot what it was- it just evaporated into thin air!"
"What's that person's name again?"
"It just won't come to me!" (-- now that one's largely lyme-generated...).
"WHAT was I just DOING?! "(that I didn't get done..)
"Now what suit did my partner bid"
"Where's my notebook?"
"What did my friend just tell me??"

The list of all the questions that don't have answers as often as they previously had goes on and on.

I fight for improvement every day!
I write everything in a notebook- that helps, I have no doubt, but does indeed cause the second-to-the-last question above to come up all too often !

How about - where are my glasses, I am looking and looking until a friend tells me they are on my face, or another time they were on my head. How about sitting for an hour on glasses in the car all the way to work and I do need my glasses for driving, only when got out at work that noticed them. They were all bent and when tried to straighten them, they broke. Ever try to work in an upscale office with black electrical tape in the middle above nose holding your glasses together.

It does get better though, I am still here, that's proof.
