forgetful and confused......

ok, so i was elated to overhear a conversation between coworkers this morning......as it focused on how their children and spouses lack understanding to the woes of menopause....the forgetfulness/shorteterm memory loss, the inability to focus on details, the irritability, moodiness, fatigue......the coworker whose voice was heard loudest commented that every time her daughter complains that she has already told about some event/issue/detail, she tells her that she has to repeat it just the one more time for her aging mother........such stories are good for my soul, as my family has taken umbrage with my rapidly failing mental faculties of late........especially with short term memory loss.....so....for those who read thus blog....please be nice when i ask you to repeat something you have already said.......
