That is what I hVe been doing laughing at myself
Or I say you know what I mean or what's the word I'm looking for. My hubby says no don't no the word
It is hard but I tell him the word is hanging in the air right in front of me but my brain won't let me say it.
Very frustrating

Hi @dodeebug,

I love that phrase, "...the word is hanging in the air right in front of me but my brain won't let me say it." Great description of how frustrating it can be!

There is one thing that I learned in speech therapy is the value of reading out loud for a few minutes each day. While it doesn't necessarily fix all of the speech problems you might have, it makes a positive difference overall.

Will you give it a try and let me know what you think?
