Does anybody else "lose time"?

[GoodOlBoy]

Now hear me out. I can almost remember most of the time between now, and last time I logged in, however I would have sworn I logged in "day before yesterday" my wife says "You haven't been on the laptop in almost a week" (not good for a person trying to write and publish a book by the way). I log on and poof. Today is the 10th, last day I logged on before shows to be the 5th..... I cannot fathom how I have a five day spread on this. I seriously would have put money down on me having been on here day before yesterday looking and responding to posts.... what the heck...

anyway just curious, or am I the only nutjob on here who loses days?

God Bless, and One Love.

It was hard for me to accept the fact, even at 50 years old, that my memory was slipping a bit. As it happens more and more you'll begin to accept it and come to terms with getting old.

It's not a bad thing, it's just the way life is. I hope you have many more years of happiness and joy!

You ain't the only nutjob...ceptin, I don't loose time yet.

[Wayne Smith]

Can you recall anything you did in those five days? Don't look at just one thing to say you have 'lost time'. Preoccupation, other interests, and life all get in the way of any one thing. With your wife's suggestions of things she saw you do, or participated in, can you recall them? If not see a Neurologist, it is a more serious issue. If you can recall with prompts it is not so concerning.

wow I am still doing up a list of "to do's" for summer 2017.

[nagantguy]

Yes I loose time, 5 years old with a BB gun at grandpas farm; 13 first girl friend, 18 Paris Island, 24 daughter born, boss she's going on an honors student D.C. Trip for a Wreath laying at tomb of the unknown solider, and I'm still looking for bbs!

I lost around 8 hrs of time the Friday before last. I blame it on makers mark though.

[RED BEAR]

Yes I do lose time . they say it came from severe sleep apnea like mini strokes when I quit breathing. Used to get in car and forget where I was going or doing. Have gotten a lot better but still could not tell you what I did yesterday. So I just figure yesterday is gone so it is not important. I just play with my puppies (actually full grown but always puppies to me).

It happens to everyone.
I logged on and checked a section on the board.
I thought I had checked it yesterday but it looks like it was 3 days ago.

This is the same for work days. Monday rolls around and its like I am skipping days. Its Weds, then its Friday.
Don't know what happened to Tuesday or Thursday?

[mold maker]

Yep. Just a couple weeks ago I was beaming through the window at my newborn granddaughter, and today I'm going to her 20th BD party. During that missing time, I accumulated three more grand children.
Yep time passes fast when you're having fun.
Don't let it get you down if you don't remember some details, you're still here.
Live it up like there is no tomorrow. Your making memories for those around you.

Ha! That's familiar...it's called a 'rut'...your going around in circles and haven't discovered it yet! Such is life...
I'll check back in two or three days to see.

Must be aliens.
I look in the mirror and wonder where the old guy came from.

You haven't "lost" any time. You have just filled your time with meaningful things

[6bg6ga]

I just loose posts. The post counter doesn't work most of the time.

[deerstalkerks]

Yes we all lose, now what was I reading in this post? O'well I remember it later. I see now what I was doing this morning, sizing some boolitts..

[runfiverun]

I have time skips too but not for days.
it's more like I look at the clock and it's 9 then I do something for 10 minutes and it's 11:45.

I will also remember eating lunch but have no clue what I ate for dinner or if I even ate dinner.
Matrix glitch?

[vzerone]

I think some of you may have been "Alien abducted!!"

I'm in the same boat at 48. I hate knowing my memory isn't as sharp as it once was. I can't simply finish something in the reloading room and leave it there, counting on my memory to remind me where I was in the process. I have to label everything now.

Backing out of a parking spot isn't as simple and fluid as it used to be. It's a lot harder to crane my neck and body around to make sure things are clear, so it takes more time and patience.

I'm A LOT more cranky and stubborn than I used to be.

Can't imagine how much slower I'm going to be in 20 years. Hopefully I make it that far though.

[AKholicBubba]

As fast as time goes by for me it seems like I'm losing time. That's another reason I don't drink anymore to many days/nights that went by in a blur

[OS OK]

Jeff, in 20 years you'll be as old as I am...your mind doesn't have to slip.
Many decades ago my Great Grandma 'Mother Minnie' told me to always keep my mind on technical matters, she saw I had a propensity for that sort of thing...your mind Chucky will always be sharp. Her's was despite the fact that she was born in 1889...we had been talking of an old fisherman near our fish camp on the San Bernard...he wasn't all there anymore tho he was.
I still believe those words she told me, only the minutiae has seemed to slip over the years...I believe that you may remain almost as sharp as you wish as you grey, keep that mind working just as you would your muscles...use'em or loose'em.

[white eagle]

not so much time but I often forget which day of the week it is
