Hi PUPA,
I am sure many of us can relate to your letter/poem. I think a lot of times we simply have to much on our minds and we can't handle the over load. However, in case you might be interested in any natural remedies to this problem send me a pm and I believe I might can be of some help. I enjoyed the read and understand your dilemma. Thank you for sharing this. God bless and best wishes!

Thanks for a great review my friend and sorry for the late reply.
Yes, I wish there would be any kind of remedy for that problem.

Comment from earthlybeing
Well written and easy to appreciate all that is in this poem. Funny how our memory can chose to do its own thing. It made me think of my Mother in Law bless her soul she is now at rest. One day I went for a visit and she told me that her doctor had recommended that she start taking a baby aspirin a day and it would help the blood flow and improve her memory also. I asked if it was helping yet. She said so seriously, "Well I don't know I can't seem to remember to take one every day". Thanks for sharing this poem. You made me smile at the memory of her.

Comment from S.Yocom
I know where you're coming from, Pupa. I keep a giant yearly calendar on the back of my kitchen door. That's where I write down all my appointments, birthdays, etc. Without it, I would be lost. Your poem is nice. You do have some problems with meter, but I liked the poem enough to overlook those.

Comment from Just2Write
This is a cute little poem Pupa - Although I found myself, saying yeah, I'm doing all those things. Oh dear - we do get older and we start to forget. It is a scary thought. I always thought I would be able to remember everything, but like yours mine is starting to fail me.

It is a big problem, Justmade, and as you see, it can get quite embarrassing!
Thanks for the nice review my friend.

Comment from NadineM
I liked this poem and letter you've written to your memory. You've written a humorous account of something that happens to many of us. It's embarassing, for sure, but human nevertheless.
Your author's notes indicate you've been tested (MRI) and so you must be feeling genuinely concerned about this condition. I am sorry you're experiencing this to such a concerning degree.
I loved the font and color scheme you chose for this write.
A suggestion:
"so I am herewith giving you a last chance, yes a final warning."- I'd remove "with" to leave : so I am here giving you a last chance..."
Also there seems to be a bit of a problem with lining up "Sincerely yours, Pupa" in the end.
Thanks for sharing this with me.

Hi Nadine,
Thanks for reviewing and for the kind comments and suggestions. I also appreciate your concern about my memory. It is a big problem.
I have looked up Sincerely yours, Pupa and found nothing wrong with it, and no one else seemed to notice anything!! Can this be your computer?
Thanks again.
Love
Pupa

Hi there! Maybe it was only my computer but Sincerely yours Pupa was all over the bottom of the page, not together at all. This is why I suggested lining it all up again. Hmmm...puzzling eh>?!!

Nadine, I appreciate your upgrade. Love, Pupa

Oh, how very funny and sad this is. I can so relate, whom over 60 cannot:)
Your words are perfectly chosen and they connect beautifully.
My memory had a quite moment for yours, amen. Hahahah
I'm so happy, PUPA that I caught this from the banner. The title drew me in:) I love it and thank you for the laughs, and tears:) Mary

Comment from complicatedrenee
Funny!!! Had to read it outloud to my brother who is visiting from out of town. We chuckled, thinking that this is all too true. How did you get into our heads Pupa, and when you were there, how come you didn't say hi.

Bravo.
