    You know you getting senile when......

    Same gun safe for 5 -6 yrs now, maybe 7??? You get into it about 2, 3, 4 maybe more times a week. Haven't been into it for a week, maybe 2 weeks now...sheesh time flys, due to work, and vacation....you go to get into it, and the combo wont work, you cant get it open.
    Confused, and a head scratching, you go to work, go to bed, get up this morning on 5 hrs sleep and try the safe combo.
    Nothing.
    try again....nothing, and again, nothing.
    Finally you call liberty safes, give them your combo, they make you switch the last 2 #'s to the combo....
    BINGO....safe opens.
    Now you feel like a fool...thinking WHAT IN THE.....????
    Ever had a senile moment like that and you're only 44 yrs old!!???

    My evil wife finds it funny......she's just plain evil!!!

    I feel your pain. I actually remembered to buy a birthday present for my wife this year, prior to the day before. I hid it in the house so she wouldn't find it.

    Big day came, I can't remember where I hid it. Took me three weeks to find it.

    She still doesn't believe that I didn't simply forget her birthday!

    For our fire resistant documents safe, I wrote the safe combination on the safe.

    What the heck are you complaining about? At least you knew where the safe was!



    My wife is forever laughing at me losing things and it's gotten to be a joke around here, I can lose something while standing in one spot without moving!

    I wrote the combo for my safe on a piece of paper, which is locked up in the safe.

    I have three safes; wrote all three combos on three papers, put one in each safe.

    I love being senile. I can say anything I want and people just say pay no attention to him, he's old and senile. GW

    They say that the memory is the second thing to go. Can't remember what the first thing is...

    Well I see i'm not the only one on the senility boat!!
    To think my wifes the one with the really bad memory....(I swear she's rubbed off on me....all her fault!!!)

    I got a saying around here that keeps me in the doghouse, she'll move it 3 times, and forget where the 3rd time was she moved it.
    Sad thing is it's actually true, as I've watched it happen.
    Even the kids have seen it and snicker behind her back, when they see her move something.....they used to say when they lived here...that was 1,2, oops 3rd time.....she'll forget where whatever she moved is at now.
    But...this is the 2nd time in 2 or 3 yrs I've literally forgotten. Last time was the pin # of 10 yrs we've had to the coop gas we use in our vehicles. I had to text the evil one on what it was!!!

    Im afraid it just gets worse as you get older. I think its due to running out of storage room upstairs. Ive developed a system to get me through those lapses and have a small blue book in which i record everything of importance. ie bank account numbers ,log in codes ,pass words ,combination numbers,user names ,etc,etc. I have them listed in a way that make sense to me and i have the book in a handy but secure location that is known only to me and my lawyer. Ive had to use it a few times.
