(oh you better believe I do for example last night I was in bed half asleep and felt something poking my head. I had only taken one earring off...the other post was digging into my scalp. grrr)<br /><br />I also have to say those shots of the Valley Gardens took me back to 1968 when it was my firstborn, who just turned 1 yr,I walked daily in the VG as we were in a B&B nearby waiting for our house to be finished. When it rained I took him to the auctions! I soon bought a British pushchair to keep him dry. On a good day we went up to the outskirts of Harlow Car.

I once had a bath, got out and dried myself only to wonder why I felt strange putting on my bra and knickers.........I hadnt taken off the previous ones before getting in the bath. I was so worried about these moments that I decided to make an appointment to see the doc about them, then had to write in my diary WHY I was going - the doc thought it hilarious when I showed her the entry saying 'memory loss query early Alzheimers???'. Recently Ive found the kettle in the fridge, tried to find where the flask top screwed into the smoothie maker, put the staples in the stapler at school in upside down and in entirely the wrong place, and tonight I only made half my eldests lunch for tomorrow and had to start again making more sandwiches.............the list is endless - as was the car park in IKEA when I not only forgot where Id parked the car but WHAT colour and make my car was too. I think I should stop now as Im starting to get worried !!!!!<br />YOU ARE NOT ALONE <br />Sue xSue Ramsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12422653425545712636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220751125104991614.post-59659828261565453532009-07-15T13:54:13.558-07:002009-07-15T13:54:13.558-07:00Just remembered.....the time when I came to work, ...Just remembered.....the time when I came to work, all proud that I'd managed to juggle all the balls, feed and deliver children and not be late. Parked and dashed in. 20mins or so later one of the managers came in and asked if anyone owned a black CRV as it was in the middle of the car park causing an obstruction...... I was soooo embarrassed I had to ask a colleague to re park it for me and put the hand brake on this time ;o) Am so grateful it didnt hit anything ....or any one!borgqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02584403451215815957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220751125104991614.post-25626271733937799212009-07-15T03:47:27.901-07:002009-07-15T03:47:27.901-07:00While working for a Mercedes dealer I nipped to th...While working for a Mercedes dealer I nipped to the shops.<br /><br />Suddenly caught in a downpour I hotfooted it back to work.<br /><br />A Mercedes pulls up next to me so thinking it was someone from work.<br /><br />Yep, I open the door and hop in.

LOVING th...good to see you're feeling better x<br /><br />LOVING the photos, that was 4.5 hours well spent ;o)<br /><br />I've done a few ditzy things, the bra over the tshirt, pj top under my top, trousers inside out, odd shoes.....etc etc.<br /><br />My worst moments are when technology is involved. My most cringworthy is when my boss told me he faniced my (Married) friend and would I have a word. So we went for lunch and laughed for an hour. Then I came back to let him down gently to say she is flattered but happy in her relationship. I then emailed her to tell her I lied out of my bum for her and he was sufficiently dumped - and yep, I emailed him instead of my friend!<br /><br />Didn't stay in that role for much longer after that ;o)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02906297858691537074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220751125104991614.post-42444067048047263992009-07-14T07:26:36.437-07:002009-07-14T07:26:36.437-07:00Oooh I am a bad teacher not proof reading!!

I thought her illuminous yellow tabard was the train lady's uniform!<br /><br />To say Brenda (Bobs) and her daughter laughed for hours was an understatement!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03559362762268639834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220751125104991614.post-16701363473296620572009-07-14T07:16:28.005-07:002009-07-14T07:16:28.005-07:00Acts of stupidity - Oooh I have many!! LOL
Here is...Acts of stupidity - Oooh I have many!! LOL<br />Here is a recent one:<br />I was teaching a Primary 6 class (age 10/11) about Tudor Costumes- it was an art lesson and I had given them books so that they could see what the costumes look liked in that era. Meanwhile I decided to go on the internet and see what I could find. I found a good site and so I put it up on the overhead whiteboard so the whole class could see.<br /><br />Teachers are supposed to be prepared etc etc etc but sometimes us "experienced" teachers "wing it" and make it up as we go...........<br /><br />...so here was I reading down the subtitles and giving a brief description in my own words as I thought I knew what they down my homework!! LOL<br /><br />I read the word COD PIECE and waffled on to the class that I wasn't too sure what it was but I thought it was either the frill that they wore around their necks or perhaps even the stiff petticoat.<br />Then we moved on to another part of the costume...<br /><br />It was at this point my classroom assistant whispered in to my ear what she thought a cod piece was<br />SHOCK, SHOCK, SHOCK<br />Beetroot red moment!!!<br /><br />Squirming with embarassment I disconnected the overhead, set the children on with book research whilst I looked up Cod Piece properly on the internet - Yip my CA was right.<br />How the pair of us laughed!<br /><br /><br />....and I am sure you all know what a cod piece is but if not then go google it.<br /><br />Sometimes I am too naive for my own good!<br /><br />Definitely a prime act of stupidity!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03559362762268639834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220751125104991614.post-47270467588212174572009-07-13T15:46:07.033-07:002009-07-13T15:46:07.033-07:00Forgot to say how gorgeous Maisie was.

It only takes am interesting scrap of paper, something shiney or the smell of paint and I'm distracted. <br /><br />I do so many stupid things I can hardly remember most of them. I did once post my letter in the prescription box at the doctors, only realising what I had done when I got to the posty office for a stamp and only had my repeat prescription in my mits. Had to get the Dr's receptionist to unlock the box and fish my letter out amid much giggling. And it was the second time I had gone out to do it that day, as I had forgotten to stop the first time round!<br /><br />I'm always putting my dirty dishes in the fridge, instead of the dishwasher as well.

On the funny stories I'm sure I've got loads but can't remember them at the mo, I have got one of my Aunties though, when I was younger my Dad owned a bright yellow car and often hurtled up and down a busy road that my Aunty lived on, eventually the car was no more and we got a new green one - about 18 months after we got the green car my Aunty stopped us (she lived across the road from the shop on the busy road) to ask when my Dad had bought his new car - my Dad told her he'd had it about 18 months - her face fell and she said - "Who have I been waving at all these months" - apparently every morning she'd race out of the house and wave ferociously at this bright yellow car going past and the man in the car waved back! - we've no idea who was in the car!Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12170383814636792641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220751125104991614.post-61565375693266029862009-07-12T20:00:54.041-07:002009-07-12T20:00:54.041-07:00Last week I went to the library with the boys and ...Last week I went to the library with the boys and when I was leaving I couldn't find my car key.
