Friday I rescued the very old and sad chimp from an estate sale. His brother and sisters were at my house waiting for him. After some scrubbing, gorilla glue, duct tape and stitches (yes I threaded the needle ) he was ready.
Went to the dentist this week.
Had 6.... (yes 6) cavities (little ones) filled. WHAT ???????????????
I blame old age and PD..........dry mouth and other meds effects.....
Didn't have a cavity until I was in my 40's
ALL ABOUT PD !!!
I love estates sales. I don't have to buy anything but its as close as I am getting to Storage Wars, American Pickers , Hoarders tv shows and going through stuff !!!
I found these cats and their "mama" on the couch at the estate sale of an artist and sculpturer who had many many many cats pieces
I picked this one because I thought it looked like me many years ago when I was blond AND had 5 cats.
This Senior Citizen Has A "Senior Moment" And Comes To A Hilarious Realisation

Every now and again someone puts into words what so many people are feeling! Read this amazing email and let us know if you can relate.
Recently, I was diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. –
Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.
This is how it manifests:
I decide to water my garden.
As I turn on the hose in the driveway,
I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.
As I start toward the garage,
I notice mail on the porch table that
I brought up from the mail box earlier.
I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.
I lay my car keys on the table,
put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table,
and notice that the can is full.
So, I decide to put the bills
back
on the table and take out the garbage first.
But then I think,
since I’m going to be near the mailbox
when I take out the garbage anyway,
I may as well pay the bills first.
I take my check book off the table,
and see that there is only one check left.
My extra checks are in my desk in the study,
so I go inside the house to my desk where
I find the
can of Pepsi I’d been drinking.
I’m going to look for my checks,
but first I need to push the Pepsi aside
so that I don’t accidentally knock it over.
The Pepsi is getting warm,
and I decide to put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold.
As I head toward the kitchen with the Pepsi,
a vase of flowers on the counter
catches my eye–they need water.
I put the Pepsi on the counter and
discover my reading glasses that
I’ve been searching for all morning.
I decide I better put them back on my desk,
but first I’m going to water the flowers.
I set the glasses back down on the counter,
fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote.
Someone left it on the kitchen table.
I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV,
I’ll be looking for the remote,
but I won’t remember that it’s on the kitchen table,
so I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs,
but first I’ll water the flowers.
I pour some water in the flowers,
but quite a bit of it spills on the floor.
So, I set the remote back on the table,
get some towels and wipe up the spill.
Then, I head down the hall trying to
remember what I was planning to do.
At the end of the day:
the car isn’t washed
the bills aren’t paid
there is a warm can of
Pepsi sitting on the counter
the flowers don’t have enough water,
there is still only 1 check in my check book,
I can’t find the remote,
I can’t find my glasses,
and I don’t remember what I did with the car keys.
Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today,
I’m really baffled because I know I was busy all the damn day,
and I’m really tired.
I realize this is a serious problem,
and I’ll try to get some help for it,
but first I’ll check my e-mail….
Do me a favor.
Forward this message to everyone you know,
because I don’t remember who the hell I’ve sent it to.
Don’t laugh — if this isn’t you yet, your day is coming!!
Hu Diane ! Just got the word this week that I need 2 additional implanrs that atr good because they hold the bone well and there are no cavities around the implant. So much for Reclast and my Osteoporosis. You can not have major dental work and be injected with RECLAST (yearly injection ) will know more this Tues.The above is very sensitive, but it sounds like the beginning of Dementia. I feel sorry for Stanley but reassure him that hewill be okay and get some books and DVD's on his subject. Take care.Until later, Fondly, Pam
