Some things she said to do are hobbies, volunteering and learn a new language. Full article at: http://www.att.net/s/editorial.dll?bfromin...amp;ac=8&ck Quote
Bob Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 My brain would need training wheels and I'd still have a wreck. I've been attending Thai language classes a couple of times the last month and, while I can read the stuff and understand it, my retention rate is rather poor. Guess I'm on the downward slope to oblivion (unless Chang bia will save me....). Quote
Guest fountainhall Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 I have been meanng to start learning Thai for 7 years. I don't know if this is a 'mind over matter' issue or just the start of the mind giving up. Now, did I volunteer for something . . .? Quote
Guest lvdkeyes Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Some people worry that they are forgetful. If you lose your hairbrush; no problem. If you don't remember what to do with it when you find it; big problem. Quote
Guest fountainhall Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Hairbrush? Hairbrush? Ah, I remember - for scrubbing my back Quote
