is this an age thing?

Can I look forward to more silly happenings like this? I'd been helping a friend clean house and arrived home feeling tired, cold and achy. I had a cup of coffee, then decided on a shower. And pyjamas, since I wasn't going out again. Turned up the heat to just under cook-the-flesh-off-the-bones temperature, stepped under the spray and ..... Oh....My....God!! Pure Bliss!  Heavenly, heavenly bliss.  Without that annoying dying and going to Heaven bit. With muscles easing nicely, I soaped, rinsed, repeated, turn off the water and reached for my towel. Which wasn't there!! I'd forgotten to lift it off the airing rack on my way through the bedroom. D'OH!! I made do with the small hand towel hanging by the basin, a very poor substitute for the very large, soft and fluffy bath sheet I usually wrap myself in.

a tale of two eggs

There they were, two eggs, sitting in their little cardboard box in the fridge. The last two of a dozen brought to me by my T, from her chooks. I was standing in my kitchen looking at these eggs, knowing that I needed one of them for something, but I couldn't remember what. So I put them back in the fridge and went about my day. A little washing, a little sweeping, read the paper, shampooed my hair....usual Sunday stuff. Still couldn't remember what I needed an egg for, so I hard-boiled both of them for sandwiches. Fast forward to near dinnertime and I thought about preparing a frittata with the left over veggies from last night. Mash the veggies together, add an egg........oh sh**!! I ate spaghetti instead.
