The Joys Of Aging

Did I turn the oven off?


Oh, I know I did.


I think I did…
Surely I did.
Well, I won’t rest a minute till I know for sure.
Darned menopause, anyway…

  2. Stunning! Have a nice weekend!xx

  3. I can so relate to that! My mind and my body are just a mess lately.

    Beautiful pictures. I love that bird house. I want to try to make some. What I really want is one of those big ones on a tall pole!

  4. Mine is “Did I blow out the candle”. Funny, but not really.

  5. I don’t know what I’m doing here this morning…I went through menopause a LONG time ago and now I’m fine! heeheehee! Enjoy your day…be back in a bit…I need to go check the oven! Hugs! ♥

  6. That’s so cute. I’ve had a marriage long tendency to leave the iron on, and have been known to get up at 2.00am to check.

    But besides that, your photography is so clear. What a beautiful creature. Love it’s little face.

  7. That little birdie stole the words right out of my mouth!

  8. I wish I could say “that too, will pass. It won’t”

  9. Oh my! I thought I was the only one. Happy Friday!

  10. For me, it is the iron. And I bought one with auto shut off…I still get up and go look if I unpluged it. Is that because of menopause or age? I thought I was losing my mind!!

  11. I’m like that and I’m not even in menopause. I think it’s having kids that does it to ya. Great pictures Brenda :)

  12. Know exactly what you are talking about. Usually, I’m looking for my readers and have two pairs on top of my head.

    I so love this new camera of yours. Great capture.

  13. Too funny! Brenda, I probably do about five “curling iron” checks before I leave the house for work each morning;)

  14. This post definately brings knowing smiles! Love the photos.

  15. hmmmm…I know exactly what you mean.

  16. Yep! Been there, done that. :-D

  21. Ok Brenda…how did you know I go through this two or three times a week now? I have to remind myself it is menopause and that I haven’t developed OCD over night.

  22. Oh great, not even to the Mental Pause stage of life yet, and here I am forgetting things. What a joy to look forward to. Teh he.

  28. Yes, I see myself becoming my Mother, despite my best efforts! I always make fun of her and her forgetful moments, and now I find myself pushing the lock button on the key fob for the car a couple of times before I ever get into a store!

  29. Uhhh……was I supposed to turn off the iron AND oven???????????? :)

  30. And this is why my curling iron, iron, and hot glue gun all have timers to shut them off automatically!

  31. Ha! right there with ya!

  40. Whenever we started on a trip, ours was “Did you unplug the iron?” On one trip when I asked my husband that, he reached into the back seat and held up the iron!

  41. Oh I feel that way so much of the time too Brenda.
    Menopause sucks.
