FORGETFUL

Yes we are getting more forgetful.

We forgot to phone our eye doctors back to return their call.  Sandra reminded us today and now I am reporting.  Dad has to phone back on Monday to get his appointment.  The Surrey office only works on Mondays.  There is another office in Vancouver.

I am on a list for eye surgery but it will be several months, actually 4 months.  They want me to come back in to discuss with the doctor whether to be short sighted or long sighted.  Then another visit to do visual fields.  This will be five visits before surgery.  A drive to Surrey Memorial and pay parking,

Dad planned to go for a bike ride and I was going to go visiting but we both were too tired.

We have been watching to Impeachment trial.  We wake up early and try to watch until the end of the day.  We like to boo the bad guys and applaud the good guys.  

I was really annoyed at the man who could not remember anything because he does not take notes.  What!!  I take notes all the time.  It sure helps me remember.

One thing is clear power does corrupt especially those who are unwilling to admit their faults.

If we cannot be honest with ourselves 

Discovering our weaknesses helps to make us more compassionate.
  
To-morrow we will finish raking up the leaves and dad plans to go for a bike ride.

That is good, progress is being made!

Picked up the 5 new kittens. They are shy though and are mostly hiding under the bed.

At work they sometimes talk about the trump thing, but then also prince Andrew became a topic this week.
