    It's good to know there is a name for what I have, but I've already forgotten what it is.
    For years I've said the brain is like a computer, and I have an old model. It has very limited ram memory and in order to remember anything new, I have to purge something older. There are traces of what I forgot, but it's been overwritten so many times it's not recoverable.

    At 56 I am in full seenager bloom, with the addition of being more energetic than a man my age has a right to be. Unfortunately that just creates additional problems with the memory issues, in so far as I may go through three rooms before I remember what I Didn’t want to forget! As an energetic man, I get a lot of strange looks, especially from those younger folks, you know the ones in the 40s that have a hard time keeping up.

    I think that Mark Twain had the right attitude when he said that as he aged his memory got better. So good in fact that he could remember things that he was certain had never happened.

    "Brains of older people are slow because they know so much.

    People do not decline mentally with age, it just takes them longer to recall facts because they have more information in their brains.

    Scientists believe this also makes you hard of hearing as it puts pressure on your inner ear.

    Also, older people often go to another room to get something and when they get there, they stand there wondering what they came for

    It is NOT a memory problem, it is nature's way of making older people do more exercise."

    I knew there was a reason for that, I just couldn't remember what it was.

    Now that I'm eligible for the senior discount, I've found out why you have to be this old to get it; because at this age, you always forget to ask for it.

    Yep, I'm one too! Being fairly recently retired from a demanding job, I really enjoy the freedom. If I want to go to deer camp a few days early, I can. If I want to stay a few days after the season closes, I can. If I want to come home during the season to see the Grandkids, like I'm doing right now, I know that I can make up those times. I just wish that I could get around like I could 45 years ago!

    Boy Wayne, that can be a real problem, but sometimes a gift from the age God.
