It's Nice To Have A Friend Who Gets You





I was talking to my friend, Patty, on the phone last night and we made a plan to meet for coffee today. We had to laugh at ourselves when we realized that we were both writing a note to ourselves to put by our computers to remind us of the plan we made. Oh, the joy of an aging brain, and the comfort of knowing you are not alone.

The good thing about a friend like Patty is that if one of us had lost our note and not shown up we would have just laughed about it and made a new plan.

It's nice to have a friend like that.

    I leave myself reminders all the time, usually in my cell phone with a loud alert so I don't forget. If I don't, my aging brain will surely forget.

    Notes are a must with me, too! I also try to text a confirmation the night before. Yeah, we are all doing it...forgetting, etc.

    Good post!

    I have a couple of friends like that (one of whose birthdays I forgot yesterday -- despite sitting next to her in French class for a whole two hours last night!) They're the best!
