This AM, left my garage for a 3 tuning job at a church setting.,
approximately 40 minutes away.  Tried to remember to have cash, tools,
address notes, cell phone, lunch.  Pulled away from garage sure I've
forgotten something. Stopped the car, opened the trunk to make sure
tool kit was there.  Knew I had to stop for gas, so made certain  cash  was
available.  Drove about 5 minutes, looked on the seat for my cell phone,
and realized I didn't have my glasses. They would be on the seat with my
phone, . . but not today. Checked pockets, etc.  U turn , and back to 
the house.
There on the kitchen table they were.  My wife thinks my memory isn't 
what it
used to be, but I think that I seem to need to remember so many more 
things now.
No way would I take lunch, didn't need glasses, there weren't any cell 
phones,
so all I had to remember was to make sure  I had my tool kit.   Is it 
any wonder ????

Has anyone ever left for a job, and forgot to shave ???
