Close call this morning when I almost poured ground cinnamon into my tea instead of on my porridge!

Jigs
I have two pairs of work trousers, one pair are grey the other are black, that I wear in rotation. Recently I noticed that the black pair have started to shrink in the leg somewhat. So I ordered a replacement pair.
When the new pair arrived, I sent the grey pair for recycling.

Spent 5 minutes scrabbling through gym bag, coat pockets, trouser pockets, gym locker, for the ID badge dangling round my neck on a bright blue lanyard.

Similar to Jigs, but less drastic -

wearing a lovely black dress with black knee high boots and a black jacket.

with blue tights.

Am wandering around with an aura of confidence and pretending it is a deliberate "look".

I would wear that deliberately, I’d feel more self concious being head to toe in black.

(The dress has some colouredy bits on it, mostly red.)

Blood doning tonight and I completely blanked when asked my address. I’ve lived in this house 3 years. Luckily I remembered after a couple of seconds but it felt like forever.

Diogenes
I wanted to say I put my shoes on because my feet were cold, what I actually said was I put my feet away...

I was just about to phone Mrs H today to say that the car had broken, and I couldn't get it to go into reverse. I realised after a very long time that I was aiming for bottom right of the gearstick, instead of top left. I have had this car, and driven it daily, for 9 years.

A whole page full of senior moments :

I particularly liked the barrister who blanked on the word ‘articulate’ and had to say ‘I’m good at saying things’ instead.

Dropped in at the doctor's to try to arrange a Shingles Jab, which I should get at 70. the receptionist went to see the nurse and came back to inform me that I had had it in June.
