I took my bags to the supermarket and left them in the car. Needless to say I had to buy the plastic bags from Woolies. After I went through the check-out with said bags I found the other bags in the crook of my arm. Ok so as everything comes in threes I have one more old lady moment to come.
Too late! I took my prescription into the Chemist and then came home without them. Yay no more old lady brain for me because that is the third one in a row. I obviously need a keeper.
I am trying to make Rosie crazy. Last night we had a lovely tea and then she spent hours trying to teach me how to do long division. I finally seemed to pick it up. Today I am going to try to do some by myself. She has left me some problems and I want to make her proud. She gets so frustrated trying to explain things so I can understand them. I just couldn't get the reason for the multiplying and adding to do division. I like things to be logical. We have to understand that my brain will be chugging along happily when it shuts down completely and I have no idea what I am doing. Old lady brain again!
I am desperate to pass this subject. Later in the semester we can use calculators. We always have to show the process to get the answer. It is no good putting down the answer when you don't show how you went about it. I was good at that at school, putting the process or formulas. It is a pity I didn't know what to do with them.
For those of you who do not have old person brain I congratulate you. There is a warning on the bottom line though. As you proceed into old personhood you will lose you compus mentis and have the lights on but no-one home syndrome. Sorry folks but that is how it is. Admittedly, some people do not lose their wits I just wish I was one of them.
