An elderly couple go in for their annual exam. The doctor says that physically they are doing fine, but their ability to remember things seems to be fading a bit. He recommends that they start writing things down so they don't forget them.
Later that day, the couple is sitting at home watching TV, and the husband asks the wife if she wants anything from the kitchen when he goes in there.
Wife: "Sure, I'll take a bowl of ice cream, but you better write it down before you forget it"
Husband: "Sure, ice cream, I don't need to write it down, I'll remember it"
Wife: "I'd also like some strawberries too, but you better write it down so don't forget"
Husband: "Sure, strawberries on your ice cream, I don't need to write it down, I'll remember it"
Wife: " I'd also like some whipped cream on it please, but you'd better write it down before you forget it"
Husband: "Sure, strawberries and whipped cream on your ice cream, I'll remember it"
After about 15 minutes of banging around in the kitchen, the husband comes out with a plate of bacon and eggs. The wife looks down and stares for a moment, and then asks, "where's my toast"????

I don't think that is funny, it describes me and the wife these days. 😀
This joke is funny...humor rooted in reality. Good that we can laugh at our ourselves as the mental faculties decline.
How many times have you hear "I TOLD you 5 times already!"
No joke, it's true!
Well, yep.
I don't think that's funny at all! Sounds like me🤔
Wonder why he didn't bring toast. Weird.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
I got around much of this confusion by making lists some years ago.
Now WHERE in the heck is that darn list??!!! 😲
Last time I asked her about the toast, she brought me fried chicken. She sure knows the way to a man's heart! 😋
Yea, it kind of ticks me off when I hear that. Two minutes later all is forgotten. Literally.
As we get older, one of the biggest lies we tell ourselves is "I don't need to write it down, I will remember it."
We always make a list........then we leave it on the kitchen table.
