I must admit I'm getting worse by the day but today I outdid myself. I called the State Police and asked him if my prescription was ready. My hearing is getting worse and when the man answered the phone I didn't hear him say state police I thought he was my pharmacist I said "this is Billie Murawski is my prescription ready yet" then he said with a chuckle that I had called the St. Pol. I was mortified.

  The other day I forgot how to send an e-mail. Please pray for me people I have to act normal at the wedding next month.   Billie

Billie, people like you and I are destined to be the ones that carry brain fog forever.  Even if a TKI is not  present.  We go on boat rides with clergy and end up falling into the water.  We fall up the stairs carrying a load full of towels and still break our nose.  We have the best of intentions and we still end up screwing up the end result. 

 

We went to the air show this weekend and my mother in law was talking about the planes.  She was also hungry. She asked if anyone was going to ride on the hamburger.  I never pointed  it out but I am fairly sure she meant helicopter.

 

Today I could not remember my phone number to share it with a coworker of Nick's and when asked for Bob's I just said, 'I have no idea, it is in my phone under Bob.'  The person gave me a look one usually reserves for a confused 5 year old that cannot find her mother.

 

Last week I was ordering pizza, I call the number I thought I had read in the book. Instead I called the owner of the pizza shop at his house, who lives a distance away from the restaurant.  We had a nice chat then he gave me the number for his pizza place.  He could not figure out how I did that, the numbers are not similar. 

 

We have to accept we are a bit different than most. And when we receive those looks usually cast upon lost 5 year olds, we accept them with grace, because we most likely deserve them. :D

Pammie, You are so right we are destined for something  ( I would have put Ron's mom on a flying hambergur(how the hell you spell that) in a heartbeat, don't tell Ron. She was a good person and I loved her but that was my first experience with old fashioned polish people and they are nuts. I sent my sister 2 text messages meant only for her, she never got them Oh boy I hope they got lost in the mail.. I don't know how many times I introduced Ron to somebody and forgot his name. Worst yet I have called Ron by my deceased husbands name more times than I can remember. But we were married 25 years so it's an honest mistake, Ron and I just had our 15th wedding anniversary you would think I'd get it right by now. I was bad before tki but now I think it's time for assissted living I no longer can be trusted.

 At least now I can blame everything on Sprycel. State Police 774-9611  Rite Aid Pharmacy 774-8880 you can see how easy it was to confuse the two numbers. OI.

I took my 77 year old friend to Pittsburgh yesterday to get her military ID renewed. After almost being removed the base via military escort because her current ID had expired a month ago.  We were told to go to a building on base that had all the doors locked.  At least we thought the basement looking door was locked.  We did what civilized people do, we went to the front of the building where the flowers and benches for sitting were located.  Upon trying to open the doors, we set off alarms and had military people surrounding us.

 

I immediately blamed the entire event upon my friend.  She is very quick to control a situation and before I knew it we were headed to that basement door we thought was locked.  A half hour later she had charmed all of the people around her while they kept looking at me like I was an alien.  She had her new ID and were escorted off the base.  They gave her an ID that lasts for her lifetime.  I don't think they wanted us to come back.

 

I quit asking long ago why these things happen to me.  They just do.

Just Lucky I guess! That's a good one Pam I can't wait to see the movie, it's a good thing I wasn't watching you I would have laughed so hard I would have gotten a severe case of urinary incontinence. Haven't you learned by now to stay away from places where they can lock you up and throw away the key. I would have just pushed her into their arms and run like hell.
