chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Have you ever tried to remember something you saw, heard or even did? I find that it takes me a little longer to come up with say names of people, movie titles and just facts. I do remember them eventually but it's like saying, "it's on the tip of my tongue." Humm, wonder where that saying originated? I hate not bvieng fast minded as I always was before. It is not too bad but agrivating just the same. If i was on a quiz show, I doubt I could beat the buzzer, blaaaaaah! _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	Definitely have this problem more now than ever. The word eventually comes to me later in the day or week, and then I can't remember who I was talking to. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

You go round and round and "skip" words, memories etc. _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!

yonuh Member Registered: 06/14/06 Posts: 2447 Loc: Arizona	I call it rolling mental blackouts. And I insist it's because my brain is so full (probably of totally useless information!) I can't locate where everything is. If only we could defrag our brains like we can computer hard drives! _________________________ Well-behaved women rarely make history. - Laurel Thatcher Ulrich http://ruthrainwater.wordpress.com/ http://newbeginningsgratitudejournal.wordpress.com/ http://sablewings.wordpress.com/

Edelweiss3 Registered: 11/19/08 Posts: 1758 Loc: American living in Germany	Sometimes the wrong word comes up. Something similiar sounding, but a totally different meaning. I find that happens when I don't get enough sleep. After a good nights sleep I feel alert and I can take on the world...but when tired, I feel like my age. _________________________ As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live. Goethe

Lola Member Registered: 06/23/06 Posts: 3703 Loc: London UK	I call it my "senior moments". I try to find a way around it though...memory by association. It's like tracking back. _________________________ <><

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Well it looks like I'm not alone with this situation. Actually since I am such an old poop, older than most of you, I should be happy it is just beginning to happen to me. Late bloomer, slow gloomer. Is that even a word, oh heck, who cares??? _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Stuff generally comes to me in the middle of the night, when it doesn't do me an ounce of good. Or if I'm on the phone and need a certain word, it'll come to me directly after I hang up.
