Is this the beginning ?

No but I brushed my teeth with savlon once

Yes, a couple of times but not recently. Now I use an electric one and he doesn’t like them. I have to remember though, when GS comes, to change the heads before he uses it. On the two occasions recently when each of my adult children have come to stay, there has been the plaintive cry of “Mum is there any toothpaste we can borrow?” We are not the only ones who forget things!

No, never use DH's brush as we keep them in separate containers at our own side of the drawer. OCD moi ?

Yuk, yuk!! Which is daft really when one considers the other things we share with our partners (ifswim!!)

still poorly - iyswim!!

No have never used wrong toothbrush - but I have sprayed my underarms with hairspray instead of deodorant

And I've sprayed my hair with deodorant . Nearly fell over when I looked in the mirror. All dusty white .

Mine's in one cupboard, his is in another.
Just as well as I don't put my specs on until I've finished in the bathroom!

He’s got the ensuite and I use the bathroom, it works well

We went to visit bil and sil, often a rather awkward stay. Since I was suffering with dry eyes I packed some eye lid cleanser and put the bottle on their bathroom shelf to remind me to use it. Dutifully used it twice daily, though did feel it it wasn't so easy to apply as on previous occasions On day 3 I realised that the bottle on the shelf was in fact a vaginal lubricant!

grannyqueenie ?

gq hahaha

No - mine is in one bathroom (mine, all mine) and his is in another!

How do we know whether we are definitely going gaga or just suffering from "normal ageing" - whatever that is?

I'm not as good as multi-tasking as I used to be. When I think what I actually did in one day when I was half the age I am now (and I don't think my memory has gone yet), I could not do half of that now. Is that what we have to expect?

Varian I can totally relate. I could multi task 3-4 different things in my 30'S . I'm 51 and can't do two sometimes. It depends what we have on our minds. Bit scary at times though ?

I was firing on all cylinders in my forties, fifties and sixties (or at least I thought I was, but perhaps, when I was 51 like you NannyTee it just didn't occur to me that I should slow down - or maybe I didn't realise I'd started to slow down).

From the age of seventy I did notice that I'd slowed down. At one time I thought I would retire at 75, but I'm ashamed to admit I've just retired and I'm only 72. I do feel like a bit of a slacker.

Gosh fair play to you then. I'm 51 and feel more like 81. I started very very early though. That's my excuse

I used a fancy new eyeliner for weeks and weeks, thinking it really wasn't giving the 'dramatic' effect it advertised. Very natural looking I thought. Then I realised I hadn't actually taken the lid off the little bottle at all, and was just using the pointed bit of the lid to run around my eyes.

lol - MissAdventure ?

Thought my shower gel was a bit soapy then realised I had used the shampoo.

Once used antihistamine cream instead of hemoroid cream. Was the same colour tube so used it for a few days. ?? won't be doing that again! Ooph!

No, never. My toothbrush is in the upstairs bathroom and DH's is in the one downstairs. He gets up very early, and as the bathroom is adjacent to the bedroom he uses the one downstairs so as not to disturb me.

I mixed up the Anusol and the toothpaste. Now I have piles of smiles and a lovely ring of confidence.

Sorry.
