Day 15 of October

Today is a day about remembering.  Or in my case....not remembering.  I am so embarrassed, I am not even going to mention the actual incident, but lets just say, I put something away and when I couldn't find it, I was sure it must have been stolen.  Every once in a awhile I would get a little nudge in my brain that maybe I put it somewhere.....but they my CSI brain would kick in and I'd examine the facts and try to convince my self that no, it must have been stolen.  When I explained the situation to a good friend, she gave me some advice....retrace your steps.  And here in lies the problem.... I couldn't remember them.  I think I did this, but did I do that on that day, and why would I do the stupid original problem in the first place.  I know this sounds confusing,,,, but lets just say, in the middle of the night, out of the blue, i remembered, and the misplace item was found.  Now, I promise I will never laugh at anyone ever again for forgetting something.... unless of course I forget.....
  That brings us to my next dilema.  Passwords.....I have so many... passwords for banking, passwords for my blog, passwords for my I-pad, passwords for Facebook, passwords for my apps on my I-pad, and of course the list goes on and on and on.  What happens when I wake up one day and I can't remember a darn one.  There was a show yesterday that talked about most common mistakes people make on setting up passwords, and I'm proud to say, I don't have easy ones to figure out.....  So I'm trying to set up something, somewhere to list my passwords and keep it private.  But then of course I would need another password to access that.  I have determined that the reason I can remember all my passwords now, is because I don't have to remember phone numbers.  With the technology today, as long as I have my cell phone, or caller ID on my house phone,  I can contact anybody.  The sad part of this scenario,  I can't even remember the phone number to my sister, and when people ask me my number, it's take alot of retrieving time from my brain to remember it. 

 Although it is a wintery day outsite, it is a beautiful one.  I have a girlfriend (she knows who she is) who takes wonderful pictures.  I can't wait to see what she captures with her camera today!!!!!

Moral of the day.....keep your mind active because like the rest of your body, it is a muscle that needs to be exercised.
