I am worst for my memory fogs. I will put something on or put it in a
certain spot...a very logical spot, mind you...then forget it. I once spent
twenty minutes searching for my sunglasses. I even asked my (now
ex) husband if he had seen them, and he looked right at me and said 'naw, I
haven't)...then after looking all over again, I raised my hand to brush my
hair from my face, and there they were, sitting on top of my head!

And I'm the same way with glasses, to the point that now, if I'm not sitting
at the table eating a meal, that drink better be in a closed container or
I'll spill it (the low and slow is engrained in me, so I rarely spill at the
table these days). So I use sport bottles or drink from a soda bottle.
