Hi Findingmyway,
Thanks for letting me know what sort of memory issues you've noticed with yourself. Yes, losing things like keys, glasses, etc. Well, not really "losing" them; I should say "misplacing" them because I usually do find them eventually after looking for them enough.
You made a good point too by mentioning not sleeping well or not feeling well. I think my memory is worse during those times also. The body just isn't in a prime condition then.
I hate to say it, but I have once or twice actually tried to put glasses on, when I already have a pair on. Or I have lost something that is actually under my arm. Last week, I went to put out the garbage, and my husband asked me to bring in the newspaper when I came back. I went out, put down the trash, and then went back in the house. THEN I remembered, "Oh, yeah! I forgot the paper." So I went back out to get it.
