That senior moment was nothing compared to mine. I went in to take my meds but did other things and apparently I was still holding my pills. So when I got ready to take them they were nowhere to be found and I mean nowhere. I looked in every cupboard every drawer every room even though I hadn’t been in in any of those rooms. I turned my chair upside down. I looked everywhere, well except where they were of course. Later on I check to see what I was going to have for lunch and checked out the refrigerator and they weren’t in there which is a common place for me to put my keys if I don’t leave them in the outside lock all night. I keep my water and drink in a drawer in my refrigerator and when I got hirsty and opened that drawer guess what I found. Yep, there set my pills. A little cold but no worse for wear so I gobbled them down right then and there.
I’ve been having too many senior moments lately anymore and they’ll probably lock me up somewhere.
If I make it another 17 years to 85 I’ll probably be some kind of raving lunatic.

@jakedduck1, Your story sounds all too familiar! But this actually happened years ago when I was "more with it most of the time"...smiles
Arrived at my school one morning to find that I'd driven 10 miles with my coffee mug still perched on the top of my car...incredible and even more so because there was still coffee in the mug. I try to remind myself of that extraordinary event these days as I go into panic mode searches almost daily.
Recently, I frantically searched the car, my purse and pockets before returning inside the store to look for my sunglasses. An employee stopped to ask if she could help and when I explained I'd lost my glasses, she smiled sweetly before saying, well, have you checked your head???? Sure enuf!!!

@jakedduck1 Haha, Jake. So funny finding your meds in the fridge. I guess by your count I'm doing ok. I've reached 85 and I'm not a raving lunatic (yet)! And you're so right about my nutty pie episode. It was a pretty crafty move on my part to never have to bring another potluck item to a family dinner again!
