Re: Daft I Call It!
No doubt that this will give some people some ammunition to confirm their mistaken belief that I am old fool, a stupid old goat, lacking in mental faculties or some other derogatory remark but I asked the question in the first place. I did so to try and make people aware that we all make silly mistakes not just the once but the same silly mistake many times. However, if we are aware of it we can take corrective action if we choose to.
Returning home from the Post Office, after collecting what our government laughingly calls a pension, the milk was brought indoors and replaced with empties, the coat was hung up, the shoes were exchanged for slippers, the milk was poured into a saucepan to heat up for my morning coffee whilst the breakfast things were washed, dried and put away. I prepared my mug to receive the hot milk and a split second before pouring it I became aware that the mug contained not only the sugar and coffee but also a tea bag and managed to stop myself from pouring the milk. I have absolutely no recollection of putting the tea bag into the mug but I am aware of spooning in the sugar and coffee. I don’t believe in mischievous fairies, poltergeists and other sundry non-earthly creatures. So I must have done it myself not only today but also once a few weeks ago. I’m not sure what teaffee would taste like but I do know that tea and cocoa isn’t all that bad. |

There, there Jambutty, it's Ok ... today, I sprinkled pepper into my glass of water instead of cup a soup, and this morning Sweetex tablets onto my bowl of cereal. Thought you might feel better if you realised that you are not the only one that is a 'doddering old fool' ....:D x

Re: Daft I Call It!
Why thank you katex!
I AM NOT ALONE!!! |
Re: Daft I Call It!
Nope, you're not alone jambutty. I more often then I'd care to admit poor my lunchtime coffee in the same mug I had my morning tea in. Actually adds an interesting flavor to it but would have to mark it up to a bit of daftness. Though not too serious.

Very odd cause many folks think I look, and certainly act, more like 25 - 35. All a case of misdirection I suppose!:p Brian Sorry for the thread wander, carry on mates! |

Actually, Brian .. I believe we do all these 'daft' things when we are young, just that we get more hung up on it when we get older, blaming it on age!! You know, the common problem of going upstairs and wondering why you did it in the first place. Did that in my teens, but just laughed it off ... but now, wonder if senile dementia is setting in.(wouldn't be compos mentis to worry anyway if it were .. so not that :confused: ). Hope I am making sense. Think it is that your thoughts go elsewhere as you are climbing the dancers and that's why you drift. That's my analysis anyway, and I am sticking to it. P.S. Cod liver oil tablets good for those joints. |
Re: Daft I Call It!
I need to shut my eyes whilst I'm on the phone or I get distracted easily and forget what I'm saying!

Re: Daft I Call It!
If I forget why I went into a room I find it helps to go back to the room I was in before I headed off somewhere else and sometimes it comes back to me.
The other night I was telling Busman something before we went to sleep and I demonstated the size and shape with my hands and he burst out laughing - we were in the pitch dark at the time and all he knew was that I was flapping my arms about but of course he couldn't see any of it. |
Re: Daft I Call It!
The problem is that if you return to the room that you left to try and remember why you left it and where for and then you forget why you went back to that room life could get rather complicated. Now my brain hurts!
A lot of people talk with their hands when they are on the phone. |
