Abandoned Lists
Dear O'H dear, Lovely Tea Jenny and The Mini Princesses,
I was giving Victor a lift to his audiology appointment today to have his hearing aids fitted.
On the way we were talking about becoming more forgetful with age. He was explaining that he used to write things down in a
notebook but he stopped.
Me: “Why?”
Victor: “Because instead of being MY to do list, it became a ‘you havnae’ list”
Me: “?”
Victor: “I wrote things in it to remind me to do them, but then I’d leave it lying out at night. Your mother started going through it and saying ‘you havnae done this and you havnae done that’…so I stopped”
By then we’d arrived at the hospital and I dropped him off at the door.
Me: “Bye Dad. Just think, after today, you’ll be able to hear EVERYTHING Mum says!”
