Early Alzheimers

I think I may be coming down with something serious-dementia. You may think I'm too young, I think not. Let me tell you what has slipped my mind over the past few weeks.


  • We have needed a new Mia Maid presidency for a month and I keep forgetting to tell someone in the Bishopric.



  • I left my work bag and scale at a facility, when I arrived at my next patients house I had nothing to assess them with. I had to drive all the way back across Ogden and get it.



  • I completely forgot about a baby shower last week. And you all know I look forward to a good shower, especially one of Dodee's. Sorry Dodee...and Kaelee.



  • Even as I was typing this I totally forgot it was my turn to pick up carpool. Luckily I was only a few minutes late.



  • Yesterday I went to Smiths, bought a cartfull of groceries, picked the kids up at the playland, got to the car, loaded the kids, and drove off. When I got home their were no groceries to unload. I left the cart of stuff sitting in the parking lot.



  • And here's the kicker. We went to the boys soccer game. After it was over Trent took the girls home and I was in charge of the boys. I loaded Aiden and Andrew in the car and was getting in myself when I looked out on the field and there was Oliver. I had forgotten a person.

I think it may be a good idea to set up a Dr's visit.

Your mind is total overload. So very sorry. It was a sad day for me when I had to start writing things down on the calendar, and even then I forget to actually LOOK at it.

My mind is mush right now too...I think it is on overload. My favorite is your full grocery cart...love it!

Julie said...

LOL! I'm so sorry you are forgetting things but it is VERY comical. The grocery cart, Oliver, golly girl. If I were you, I would take these experiences as a sign that I was over scheduled. You poor girl. Thanks for the laughs.

I think you may have a little too much on your plate with all those munchkins! I loved the grocery cart!

I've heard beets help slow down alzheimers:)...

I call it Mommy Mush Brain. And it gets worse with every child. So given that you have 5 (in a short time period!) I think you have a pretty good excuse to be forgetful. It's frustrating, though, isn't it, to feel like you're losing your mind?!!

Girl you need to cut back! Don't know how you do it but the whole grocery thing is hilarious! I think with all you have got going if that is all you have forgotten you are doing great - well, minus the whole Oliver thing.
