But don't ask me what happened a week ago, because I have no idea.

I've found that using the memo app on my smart phone is a great help for things to do (or things to remember).



Now to add a little levity to the conversation:

An elderly woman sends her elderly husband to the grocery store to pick up a quart of milk, a loaf of white bread and a dozen eggs.

When the husband returned home, the following conversation ensued.

WIFE: Did you go to the store?

HUSBAND: Yes.

WIFE: Did You remember what to get?

HUSBAND: Yes. I got a gallon of vanilla ice cream and some chocolate syrup.

WIFE: You idiot! You forgot the whipped cream!

Jus Beautiful Way of Life!!! (:
