As this is a blog about one woman’s journey to health, I feel it is time to address those little moments in life when I think that I must be losing my mind. The classic example is that of walking into a room and forgetting why you are there. I have come to believe that most of us have these moments and so find comfort in realizing that we are not alone.
Whether we are actually losing our minds or not, at least we can journey together.
Have you ever…
Started the coffee and forget to put the coffee grounds in?

i’ve never done that because i never make my coffee at home but i def have moments where i’m losing it!!
Well, that’s one way to avoid the problem. I probably have enough moments for a daily post, but I will keep it weekly for now; lest I convince myself that I have lost it and can’t get it back. 🙂
Have you ever pressed the start button on the coffee and forgot to put the carafe in? I’ve done that more than once.
Oh, what a hot mess…Literally! 8)
Have you ‘ever’…forgotten to take your glasses off to put eye drops in?
Have you ‘ever’ forgotten to put the clothes in and run the washing cycle completely?
It’s a fun question…. Diane
Ha! Well, at least you had a good view of where the drops were going! And I have run the wash before. ;).
I came into this post to do something. Oh well. I must go and visit Katie’s blog sometime 😉 Ralph xox
Hehe. Do you need help getting home? 8)
No thanks. I’m okay now. I can find my own way out.
“Ouch !! Who left that paddleboard at the top of the stairssss……….” 😉
Oh, dear. Sorry about that. 8)
I bet 😉
Made flan and forgot to put the eggs in? Yup, been there, done that! lol xoxoM
That’s like a cake with no flour! Well done, lol. 😉
Your blog isn’t big enough for me to list all the “things” I forgot to do. My fav is always “looking for something I just put down….someplace….usually in front of me or occasionally it’s in my hand or in the case of glasses, on my head.” Thought provoking post. What was it about again? Oh yes, I made “coffee” without beans. Saves on money but doesn’t taste good.
Oh ya, I love to look for things that I am already holding. 8)
Maybe the sign is that you need hot water, not coffee? I guess I’ve done most every such silly thing. Losing my mind? Trying to do too much too fast? Tired? In a meditative trance? A large percentage of the time my mind does work, so I’m grateful! 🙂
I will keep some lemon slices on the ready, just in case. ;). I am also grateful for my brain’s track record. Less errors than Windows. 8)
Haha! If I drank coffee, I’m sure I would. I did once ‘steam’ broccoli but forgot to put water in the pot underneath the steamer. NOT pretty!
Ooo, and smelly too, I bet. 😦
Yes. A rather burnt-pot smell wafted through the air.
It’s a wonder that scent has not made it to Yankee Candle!
Give it time…
LOL, Just in time for Black Friday..
no put poured a cup of tea with no teabags
Yep, feel your pain! Just when you’re ready for a sip…
I’m over 70 so I am definitely a candidate for this experience. I find that these situations occur when I am not paying attention to what I am doing. If you pull your attention back to the present you will find that this doesn’t happen so often. The old “Be here now” works well.
Another good reason to be in the moment! 8)
No – I always put the grounds in but sometimes no water…and when I add the water…puff the grounds fly everywhere! have you tried that one 😉 ?
That almost sounds like fun. I will have to try that–at someone else’s place. 😉
What are coffee grounds?
You know I’m kidding, right? I mean, I know what they are. Kind of. I’m helpless in the kitchen. But not harmless. I’m very, very dangerous.
lol. Starbucks it is then. 8)
Just this morning I pushed down on my mouse and nothing happened. I pushed down 2 more times before I realized I had not put any staples in it.
ROFL. Any luck getting the staples in?
