It Must Be My Age

I pick up the phone this morning to phone a client, the call goes like this:
"Hello, is that Debbie?"
"No."
"Is she there?"
"No."
"Okay, thanks."

Blimey I think, she sounds a right miserable cow whoever she is.

About a minute later the phone goes and Caroline says, "It's for you."
"Did you just phone and ask if I was Debbie?"

It's Janis -doh!

Then this afternoon I'm signing off a letter to a husband and wife client and I notice I have typed, "Further to my meeting with Rae (Scottish wife) last night....."

Am I on the downward slope of old age or this is simply a blip at the start of the ramp on mental longevity?

Oh dear..clearly you're bonkers! ;-)

P.S. along with a few grey hairs I am tomorrow picking up my first pair of reading specs....oh the shame, although I do look quite cool in them when I tried the frames.

Wow I'm impressed, reaching your age and not needing reading glasses, particularly impressive given your choice of reading material!
