- I can remember where I put my keys the last time I used them
- I can find my purse when I need to leave without help from one of my kids
- I remember that my sunglasses are on the top of my head within two minutes of searching for them.
- I can create a blog entry in less than 3 hours without crying
- I remember to bring my grocery list with me to the store
- I remember I have list with me, and use it at the store
- I can find my phone 75%………ok 50% of the time
- I can summarize what I read in a book from the day before
- I remember an appointment without being reminded by one of my calendars
- I am able to help my kids with algebra
…….as you can read, it really doesn’t take much!
Yaaay! You rock! 🤩

I can “one up you” on the sunglasses….during my recent drive to texas the sun was coming in from the drivers side window so I asked my passenger to dig in my purse for my sunglasses or even my “spare sunglasses”. She looked for twenty minutes before finding the spare pair, and I didn’t realize I was already wearing sunglasses until i tried to put the other pair on too….smh

I believe it’s the small victories that remind me that I can do this! But it’s still so incredibly hard to accept when I forget the little things. I still have to write everything down! Otherwise consider it forgotten. 🤷🏽♀️😌

You’re welcome Wendi 🙂 Yes, victories, big or small – but especially the small victories. I try not to put too much on my plate in a day, or put too big of expectations on myself. As this can lead to more stress.

You had me at… “find my keys”… I have created full-proof solutions to my inability to find things. I now have a key holder bythe door. Sunglass and purse are always placed in the same spot not far from the door. I got the loss of memory bad.. can you tell? I also “feel you” on posts taking a while. 😳😆 Great list… You got me beat! 😉

I have MS and your struggle with short term memory issues. I loved your list and connected with it entirely!!! Lately driving is a constant process of turning around because I made another wrong turn. I have a 2nd Cognitive Thinking Evaluation in 2 weeks. 2 years ago I was still in normal range but I was at bottom 10%. I wonder what this year’s evaluation will look like?!
