Confused!

Dear....
Just a line to say I am living
That I am not among the dead.
Though I’m getting more forgetful
And mixed up in my head.

I’ve got used to my arthritis
To my dentures I am resigned
I can cope with varifocals
But, ye gods, I miss my mind.

Sometimes I can’t remember
When I’m standing by the stairs
If I am going up for something
Or just come down from up there.

And, before the fridge, so often
My mind is full of doubt
Now, did I put some food away?
Or come to take it out?

So remember that I love you
And wish that you lived near
But now is the time to post this
And say goodbye my dear.

At last I stand by the post box
And my face it sure is red.
Instead of posting this to you
I have opened it instead!

Love this, 2nd verse is me apart from the last line , I don't think I've lost my mind yet or maybe I have and forgotten. :-D :-D

Oh that dreadful going into a room, and cant remember what you went in for. Go out, and you are perfectly clear. :-D :-D :-D

Rings far too many bells for my liking :-D :-D

Funny to read, but not funny really as there are so many things that I can relate to. Thank you for sharing this AnninGlos x

Oh I can relate to many of those things too.
