Hey, this grandanthro caught me once, too, when mama wasn’t around.
Well, I’m hearing mama saying more and more often that she’s not as nimble-fingered as she used to be, as in “Oops! I just barely got through making that focaccia without dumping it on the floor.”
But then again, her reflexes seem to have stayed in touch with her brain, haha, so even as she knocks the glass butter dish off the counter top, she catches it in mid-air!
Maybe these little…er…changes only show up one at a time, mama hopes. Thank heaven.
She even caught me once when I was snoozing and about to slip off the couch and onto the hard floor, so I’m very happy that her responses are still intact, even if her bumble-fingers are causing a bit of chaos in the kitchen, haha.
Uh, oh. I’m slipping here..
But that’s minor. It’s when she puts an avocado in the knife drawer and the knife in the refrigerator
that worries me.
Every time we lose something around here, papa says, “Check the fridge, ’cause you never know.”
And that’s when mama has misplaced her PURSE, haha.
Hey, it’s a circus around here sometimes. I’m never bored.
I seem to be really good at falling off of couches, haha.
Your Mama TOO? A couple of days ago – since the refrigerator was so full, Mama did a balancing act of leftovers – and MY cherry tomatoes hit the floor! I moved faster than greased lightning to grab what she didn’t see. Mama’s always losing her glasses! I keep hoping she will drop some chicken bits….. and Papa lost his keys (but found them). But MY memory is perfect – every time we get near the vet or the “coiffeur” – I start walking really fast and drag Mama down the street.
Which direction, haha? Yes, we lost our keys and looked EVERYWHERE and guess where they were? In the lock of the door. DUH.
Papa has done that a couple of times!!!!
Around here it is becoming a list!
There are a lot of lost marbles around here Loulou!
Oh, you guys play marbles, too?
We hear you, Loulou. And we can relate.
Gee, I thought it was only mama.
YEARS ago I rented a house that had a closet in the kitchen. I caught myself several times putting milk in the closet and gloves in the fridge. So it isn’t even a old-age thing !
That is really funny. Did you hang up your coat next to the orange juice?
Lol!! I put a jar of mayo on my spice rack and garlic salt in the fride. I have also found my cell phone in the fridge…
Oh, a kindred spirit for mama, haha!
