Pickles by Brian Crane for June 10, 2010

So turn him around and open the door for him.

I have to go back where I came from, and then start all over again to remember what I was coming in for……!!!!

It probably wasn’t important anyway Nelson.

Nelson really knows his grampa! Now what were we talking about?

Hey if you have ADHD as an adult you don’t have to wait to your old to have that problem. I’m told I’m fun to watch at at work.

Nothing new to me; I forget why I came in a room all the time.

That was me last night… I kept retracing my steps because I kept forgetting why I went to a certain part of the house… I’ve gotten into the habit to scan the whole room to see what brought me there in the first place if I’ve forgotten by the time I got there… So sad, and I’m only 31 years old… LOL!

When I was young I got married and soon forgot why.

That happens to me all the time. Fortunately it usually turns out I walked into the wrong room ayway.

this is so true! I hear it gets worse…but I forgot where I heard that from…

Yes, but we still remember that it IS a room.

Da#n those senior moments!!

I don’t need to be Earl’s age to do that. That doesn’t work for me, Tanya, but going back to the room I started in will jog my memory of why I was going to the room I went to.

Hopefully their expressions are different. I would think Roscoe’s is determined and Earl’s is quizzical.

It’s called ” Sometimmers Disease “…

Who were we just talking about???

Earl’s thinking about the hereafter. “Why am I here and what did I come after?”

Happens to me in front of the refrigerator door all the time.

I often go into the basement to get something and get distracted by something else that I see and need, go back upstairs and realize I didn’t get what I went down there for.

my fiance went to take his pills this morning and got side tracked by the laundry.,how’s that

Cleo You sound like me!!!!

Tonto And did the laundry? Good for you, as long as he keeps the reds away from the whites, LOL!

Pull the chain down to turn the bulb on above Earl’s head so he will know what he will be going to the next thing.

My doctor says I have Attention Deficit Disorder but he just doesn’t understand…….

Oh!…LOOK !.There’s a chicken.!…

Anyway my doctor….Huh?

What’s really fun is when you go in the kitchen with the intention of getting something out of the cabinet, open the refrigerator and then stare at the contents– wondering what the heck you were looking for.

Rmom, I find myself thinking about the ‘hereafter’ a lot these days ;-)

Bill Cosby says there’s a switch in the older human’s butt. When you are sitting you remember what you wanted, but as soon as you stand up and walk into another room you forget. When you go back and sit again, the switch is triggered and you remember again. Sure seems to work for me.
