For Fear that I Might Forget

I think my issue with being so forgetful is getting serious.

Yesterday morning at work, a colleague friend of mine was looking for a document. I, in all innocence, insisted that I did not have it. She left with full confidence that I was pretty sure of my answer- I did not have the paper. I was really sure I did not have it. Then , a second person came to me and asked for the same paper, ” Ate, are you sure I did not give it to you?”  That was when my confidence crumbled. Was I really sure? For a second person to come and ask me again, they must really know what they are  saying. Then it all came back to my memory.  I peeked at a table where the paper was neatly laid. For a moment I wished it was not there. But it was. Yes, he indeed handed me the paper and I totally forgot about it.

My husband always say that I am so forgetful, to which I always defend myself. But after this incident, I now believe him .  I am just thankful that he was not around. Haha!

Saturday morning, I made a big batch of  delicious roast beef sandwiches. I texted my cousin, Grace, who lives a few blocks away  that I will send her a sandwich so she can take for her lunch to work. Well guess what? Afternoon came, I had a good nap and my cousin went to work without a sandwich.

Sunday afternoon, my aunty and papa are going back home after they visited us on the weekend. I baked a luscious cream cheese cake pound cake the day before and I thought I’d cut a few slices and pack it so they can take it home. I neatly cut 6 slices of the cake, placed it  into a disposable food container and left in the kitchen counter. For good. My aunty and papa are back at their home now. The cake slices are still in my counter.

And just when I thought that these forgetful incidences were just random, There I was on a  Tuesday morning, totally forgetting about a piece of paper that I had the whole time.

See. Its is really getting serious.

So that being said, I thought I’d post these photos. Just , you know,  for fear that I might not remember them in the future.

For fear that I might forget this

The silliness and sweetness embodied in one.

Or this,

The first time she ever held a book in her face.

 

or this chubby cheeks.

and  chubbier cheeks.

Or sleeping beauty.

And this too.

 

I might forget this one  so I posted it here,

 

Or even this one,

But you know what,

I don’t think so.
