"Where am I?"
I'm losing my mind!
Ever since my surgery, in late January, I can't remember anything. I'm not sure if it's the hormones or just being tired. Maybe it's a combination of the two.
I am currently taking 5 college courses. This is my last semester, before graduation, so it's very important that I pass. Well, I keep forgetting that I have classes and assignments.
It's embarrassing to have to email your instructor to tell him/her that you forgot again. I'm hoping that it's just the "menopause" that's causing it. Doesn't menopause cause memory loss? I don't remember.
Two days ago I was driving and ended up on the other side of town. I couldn't remember where I was supposed to be going. I figured out later that I was supposed to be going to Target to return some shoes. For some reason, I was in North Bossier. I think I got the two Targets mixed up. I know it sounds crazy.
But, haven't you ever walked into the bathroom and wondered why in the world you were in there?
Is this what I have to look forward to? Does it just get worse with age or will it get better with HRT (hormone replacement therapy?).
