Senility shouldn’t always be seen as a negative…why just the other day I started to walk to my bedroom for something and when I got there realized I had forgotten why…but did notice dust in the corner of the floor. I went to get the mop in the laundry room and noticed that my husband had put all his dirty laundry in the basket and it was full so I filled the washer and started a load. Walking back to the bedroom I passed through the bathroom and noticed the sink and mirror was splattered with shave cream and toothpaste so I wiped it down and put out fresh towels.I started back to the bedroom with the mop and my phone rang, it was my Aunt, we chatted for about an hour then she had to eat her lunch and take her medication so we said good-bye. I then started back to the bedroom but upon reaching it realized I forgotten why again, so I headed for the kitchen to make myself a cup of tea, put the kettle on and as I looked out the window noticed there was no water in the birdbath, so I went outside to fill it and also put seed in the feeders..went back into the house and heard the kettle whistling …ahh finally a well deserved cup of tea..went to sit down and to my amazement the chair was ice cold…it was then I realized why I was going to the bedroom…to put on some underwear….however….

I accomplished more things that morning than I usually did.
