cripes...my aging mind !

my mind weaves complicated thoughts and ideas

and

tends to remember what others have usually forgotten

~~

phone numbers

names

locations and directions

~~

but the older I get

the more I forget

~~

and

yesterday's post was a great example of me

losing it

~~

my daughter just told me that I had already posted some of those house pictures

shortly after I had taken them this past fall

and

I was like

"really....are you sure?"

and

she was like

"yep, I've seen the outside of that house before"

"but I don't think you told the story"

~~

DAMN

~~

you see

I have picture files that are bursting at the seams and I tend to keep track of which pictures I've used, which pictures I love the best, which pictures are just so-so and should be deleted, but for some reason I've formed an attachment to them and can't throw them away and which pictures will be the best ones to edit late at night when I can't sleep.

~~

but

I don't have a file of pictures labeled

"used already so don't be an idiot and use them again"

~~

I guess I need a new file

~~

so a huge apology to you, if you've already seen any of the pictures from yesterday's post in a previous post

and

to all my new readers

a.

thank you for being here

and

b.

pretend you never read any of this

~~

and

in case you were wondering

the picture for this post was in the "late night" file
