 I was just wondering if anyone has a funny fibro fog moment to share?? I was thinking that if we shared these maybe those newbies that join would know that we all have those foggie moments.....  *H*&*P*  love juls
 
** I have containers with flour, hot cocoa, sugar, salt, cappichino, etc... I went to make sugar cookies for one of my sons classes... a holiday of some sort....the kids let me know quickly that the cookies were AWFUL!  Yep yep yep after tasting one....I must have mixed up the salt and sugar....they were really really bad!!!!
 
** I have gone to the docs office, signed in, and waited for my name to be called--after sitting for 2 1/2 hours waiting I went to the desk to ask why I hadn't been called....the receptionist looks at the schedule and looked back at me and said that my appt wasn't until the next day or it had been the day before!! I have had both of those happen....one time the receptionist told me that I wouldn't be seen that day....to come back when my appt was--I told her that she better find a way for me to be seen because I wasn't going to make the 120 mile trip (one way) again the next day!!!!
 
** drove to the grocery store--about 30 miles away and forgot what I needed only to get almost home and remember--drive back to the store and got what I needed only to get home and forgot something needed to go with what I had already bought....
 
**added bleach to colored clothes
 
do you have any of these kind of stories?

Uhhhh...
I get brain fog really bad and do some pretty weird stuff sometimes. LOL! It takes me ages in a grocery store to remember what to buy even though I try and make up a list, I usually ALWAYS forget to pick something up.
I can get sidetracked while waiting for the tub to run to have a bath. I flooded the bathroom floor once.
I've forgotten things baking in the oven only to finally discover that it's burnt to a crisp!
I get disoriented easily, especially in areas that I'm not familiar with and I almost ALWAYS go in the opposite direction that I'm supposed to be going in.
I've learned that it DOESN'T pay to treat yourself to a meal out. Since alot of us fibromites get IBS, and we have alot of food sensitivities, make sure you're prepared and preferrably close to a washroom!
While shopping I've literally forgotten to pick up one of my grocery bags and just walked out the door!
While shopping I end up buying stuff that I already have that I don't think I have so I end up with "doubles" in the fridge or cupboards!
I almost ALWAYS buy too much at the grocery store and end up having to carry too many heavy bags home...NOT GOOD! This is what happens to people that walk to the grocery store and don't have transportation! I also find that those carts you can get to pull your things in are extremely hard on the back, as well, so those usually put me into a flare, as well, so I consider those useless! LOL!
