Absolutely....I used to be an intelligent person, know I feel as dumb as a rock.
So frustrating when I can't think of the word that was just there a second ago and I have to stop talking and try to regain my composure before I continue.
I worked for almost 20 years in a local newspaper, first 5 years in the business office then the next 15 in the circulation dept. The amount of numbers, names and addresses that I could remember always astounded me, now I can't even remember where addresses or streets are in town anymore.
