Did it again this morning GRRRRRR

I rushed out this morning for a 2 day sale at Superstore to pick up some Filtrete Allergen furnace filters for $5.99, they're usually about $13-16 each.
Walking across the parking lot to the store I reach in my pocket and no money, no cards. Good thing I decided to go in to check before driving home and coming back.. It was a misprint and they were only 20% off, no deal at all harumphhh
 
I've done some things in my time that make me think my mind is going. Yesterday, I was boiling water on the stove for a pot of tea. I got online, watched an episode of Sanford and Sons, talked to a friend on the phone... 2 hours later, I remember about the water on the stove. Of course there wasn't any left, but at least I didn't burn the apartment down.

I've also added dirty dishes to a clean dishwasher, and accidentally taken "clean" (looking) ones from a dirty dishwasher.

A few days ago, I was doing the marketing. I parked my cart to look at some produce. Went back to my cart, threw the carrots in and started merrily on my way to the meat department. A few seconds later I hear a lady screaming, "Coos me. Coos me. Mira, Mira!" She pointed down to the cart... I had taken her cart WITH HER PURSE in it by mistake... mine was still sitting where I'd left it, with only a loaf of bread in it. She had a few other choice words for me, but they were all in Spanish, so I couldn't make them out. She must have thought I was trying to steal her purse. Can you imagine if she had had a child in the cart and I started prancing off with it!

I've done lots of other things... but my memory is so bad, I can't think of them!
 
Yesterday, I put a pot of water on the stove to boil. Left the house to go to Target. Halfway to Target, I remembered about the water on the stove... I didn't remember turning it off. I was so upset, I was shaking. I drove home 90 MPH only to discover that I DID turn it off, but forgot I did it. Can you imainge if I'd burned an entire apartment complex? Scary!
 
memory loss

LOLZ well if it really does come with age by the time that comes ive forgotten my birthday!!!! im 23 and i fill up a cup with water to drink and for some reason forget where i place the cup and get another one and then an hour later find it, i always obsess about putting things away neatly and back where it belongs only to forget where the hell it originally went!!! ohh and you'll guys love this when im doing laundry i forget i am and the load will be done for maybe an hour max and i go" mother f*ck i have to get the clothes". but my excuse im under plenty of stress lately and since i wont go back to smoking like a chimney im eating like thanksgiving everyday ok too much said!!!!

LOLZ
 
I finally bought an address book to put down people's addresses and phone numbers because I could see myself beginning to forget them. A sobering thought.
 
Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh>>>

I have to write a list for what I need to do for the day. I lose it and just say WTF !!!! But I never forget where I have to and when to pick up a nice machine. LOL.
I hate when I have to go back into the house 4-5 times. Keys. Phone, Work stuff, Oy, it sucks.
 
I used to burn pots a lot more...

Since I moved my office to the family room, which is contiguous with the kitchen, that happens a lot less.

There is apparently some evidence that high insulin levels can lead to dementia in later life. This is in turn thought to relate to the longer life span of people and animals on calorie restricted diets. Lower caloric intake = lower insulin levels. This doesn't bode well for those of use with type 2 diabetes who are treating it with insulin.

BTW, I'm told that regular insulin is relatively inexpensive, even if it's not off patent. The short term and long term modified insulins however are much pricier. I'm a bit po'd though that the FDA and/or Congress has decided that ALL drugs derived from genetically engineered sources are permanently protected by patent. This is just plain wrong. There should be a time limit on such things, enough for the companies to recoup their R&D expenses and make a reasonable profit, but not to gouge patients indefinitely.
 
You're right

Hi, Rich. You sure are right about that. Alot of my friends get mad at my attitude about diabetes. I can't believe why Humalog was $62.00 per vial. Now it is $106.00 at wal-mart. I think regular insulin is $26.00. I tell people on my Insulin-pumpers.org site that I NEVER participate in diabetic "fund raisers" because there WILL NEVER be a cure. It costs over 300 BILLION to treat worldwide. The Eli-Lilly company would NEVER allow a cure to get in the way of their profits...Very sad and EVIL in my opinion........Bill in Az.....
