    I am such a ditz

    My memory has progressively gotten worse and worse over the last couple years. Just wanted to share that I forgot Chili's birthday! I thought it was june 18th, but after looking at his pedigree is July 21! I wonder what is causing my memory loss...dont answer that I think I know, I just cant accept it!

    That's never happens to me!
    What were we talking about!
    If someone asks me my age I have to stop & think about it!

    My memory is pretty lousy, so I have all birthdays stored in my comps and my cellphone with alarms a few days ahead, just to be on the safe side. A few years ago all this was handwritten in my calendar, but now it seems to be the new, digital, age

    For at least six months I have been overstating my own age. DW corrected me with great pleasure.

    i figured out where i got the wrong date from. I picked up Chili from airport on 18 september(09)...so flip the 9 upside down and its a 6 6/18....I know its a stretch. Think I am going to have to make a calendar and sync it with my phone...I rely on my wife for all the important dates.

    Have never been able to remember dates. I'm lucky if the correct month is recalled. My calendar has notes all over it. Plus, us "oldsters" don't dwell on age.

    I used to have an awesome memory. I never forgot anything. Not so anymore. I think its from the diet coke I drink lol. There was a study some years back that said diet coke kills off brain cells lol

    Last year I told everyone that I was 46. I posted it on online surveys and when I was signing up for new website accounts.

    I was actually 45.

    Don't worry too much about it. I forgot Zo's birthday as well.
