I can't even remember what my screen name was! I do remember the story about mysterious rocks in the yard, though.  Some of those stories were hysterical. Glad to see you haven't lost your sense of humor. Remember how weird things turned during the guess-the-item/person contests?

memory
Yes, I have noticed it as well. They had done studies on this and from what I have read, our memories are fine, but we lose some retrieval speed, simply because we have so much stored in there.
It is similar to a filing cabinet - if you start out your business in year one, you will have a handful of files and you can get in there and grab what you need immediately. However, as the years go on and you get more files, it takes longer to go through and select what you need.
I just carry a little notebook with me all the time and write down anything I need to do. It helps tremendously.
I think I'm losing my memory
I know as we get older we all joke about it because it seems to be true for a lot of us. But, do you ever worry that it could be something more serious? For the last 10 years, I've noticed that I can't remember numbers any more like phone numbers. I used to be very sharp and have a good memory but now I rely on notes. It sux!
I read that he is going to have memory loss....sm
and that later he is going to fight to get Sharon back, so maybe that is a rumor. I hope he and Sharon end up back together. It should have been Phyllis that went over that cliff!! Sorry - got riled up
That space-age memory foam stuff
has some problems. People find that the way it conforms to your body and doesn't breathe is HOT. It also lacks certain spring that a normal mattress has. How can I say this delicately ... married people's beds aren't always just for sleeping, and memory foam doesn't do what you expect a mattress to do. So I've heard. I never had one.
Better to get a mattress with a mixture of foams and/or springs. My hubby likes to turn a lot in bed due to all his aches and pains, so we got a Simmons for the control of transfer motion and we got one with a soft pillow topper to ease DH's tender hips and arthritis aches.
My son got a memory foam top for his matress and loves it. nm

you just brought back a really funny memory
When my daughter was young (way, way preteen), probably the age of your daughter, she was in dance and they put on performances where they had to wear makeup and really a lot to be seen by the audience.
Well, we took her out to lunch after one particular performance without wiping her face (I mean, it was a real production to get this stuff off -- especially the lipstick because they used this kind that doesn't come off easily).
I thought the waitress was going to flip. She gave us the coldest reception and was extremely rude. At first I did't get it, but then I looked at my daughter in her jeans and T-shirt and face all made up --- I explained to the waitress and she immediately changed her demeanor.
I guess I was dumb for not removing the makeup first and I can't remember the exact circumstances, but it seems like we were in a rush or had no choice or something... anyhow, hadn't thought about that for a while...
oh and my bottom lash isn't bald but if I don't wear any makeup at all, I at least put a little liner underneath, so yeah, I think it's okay (but I don't know what you look like lol). I'd love to have the permanent tattoo done, but the little dancer is in college now, so mom's beauty will just have to wait!!
Memory foam/Tempurpedic knock off
I bought each of my kids a Tempur imitation a few years ago through an ebay store, and they still LOVE them. Haven't been able to afford more than a 2-inch topper for my and DH's bed, but it still is worth its weight in gold to me. My SIL had an authentic Tempurpedic and returned it to the store after a a few days--couldn't stand it. To each his own I guess, but I will definitely never buy another coil spring mattress again.
What is your favorite childhood memory?...mine is catching..
lightening bugs in an old mayo jar at an aunt's cottage on the Beaver River in western PA while the adults played cards in the screened in porch late into the night. What I wouldn't give to go back in time just once more!
dysphagia/dysphasia, quick memory tool
dysphagia = G for GUT. The food won't get to my GUT.
dysphasia = S for SPEECH. I can't schpeak when I'm schlurring my words, LOL.
My son got a memory foam and the thing reeks!! UGh.. some people have allergies

Heck yes!

What the heck is it????

Been there - heck, there now!...
Same thing at my house - if i'm the least little sick, husband asks if I need to go to the hospital. If I say I don't, then by golly I should be well enough to keep working, cleaning, taking care of him and the kids, etc. I feel your pain! :(
Heck, ask him. Maybe you can get some $ from

How the heck
Call me dumb but I have to ask before I try this. You put the dandruff shampoo on your face? and is this a 3-step process, rinsing between, or you put it all on together? How often do you do this once a week, a month?
What the heck?
Physical ramifications? Which ones are those? You all start on the biggest bunch of getting shrinks for this, ramifications for a piece of skin cut off as a child, no wonder kids now days are a bunch of wimps. The parents are making them like that. No man or boy that I have ever known has had to go into therapy because of a circumcision. Bunch of crock.
No, what they heck are they thinking?

What the heck does your post have anything at all
to do with my husband's health??? Obviously you've posted in the wrong area!!
Romey! How the heck are ya?!
Ham was in the cam all day today...it's about 45 degrees out and she has been out there all day is turning BRIGHT pink! I'm actually worried she's going to burn, but she insists on lying out there and soaking in the rays. Can't say I blame her one bit. If I could, I'd be moving this 'puter thing outside and doing my work out there today! It was 10 degrees out there this morning and overnight and we have had nothing but snow and ice for ages it seems...such a welcome sight that sunshine is!
Well, after a week in the Mirra chair, I sat in this Aeron and wow--what a difference. I actually like it better than the Mirra! The seat is bigger, and with a caboose as big as mine, that makes a huge difference. This is a well-used demo model though and it kinda tips to the left, but I think if I am gonna spring the bucks, I'm gonna do it on this style. My husband now has the Mirra chair for a week and as soon as he sat in that one he said, "Oh yuck...can I have that other one back now?"
I haven't talked to the rep guy yet..just got his voicemail, but when he shows up next week to take these chairs back I will most definitely ask that question for you, as I'd like to know the answer too!
Glad your friend enjoyed seeing piggy. Just WAIT until mud season (which hopefully is only a few more weeks away)...she will be out there all the time and in her absolute glory! Her favorite game is to tip over the water trough and make more mud...that's when you see me, all wild haired and disheveled, running out there to turn it upright and refill it with H20. It usually goes badly because she dumps it as it's filling and I can't do squatola about it. I may be big, but she's waaaay bigger and I think if we were to get into a fight, well, she'd win hooves down.
Heck yeah!
My daughter is a few months younger than Celine's son. She has her hair buzzed by her request. (I use the 3/4 inch buzzer guide.) She is tops of her class, very respectful, and loves to help out her teacher in class. She is well behaved, but she does pick on her little sisters sometimes like any kid. She's a really good kid. When we go to the nursing home to visit my husband (he's a nurse), the residents typically assume she's a boy because of her hair, which annoys her. Otherwise she is as girly as can be, much girlier than her mom with long hair!
I figure it's just hair--who cares as long as the child can handle the hair issues? Eventually there will be much bigger battles to be fought than the length of hair.
Go Celine!
HECK NO!! I can eat what i want, drink what i want
it's time to eat all the cheesburgers and milkshakes I want!!! I'm looking forward to old age :)
Can I guess, heck yes, I saw her
Yes, it is a her, not the him that is still waiting but she could not stop that horrible slobbering, crying crap. I appreciate the fact she can sing but do we now have to put up with all that stuff that goes along with it. I would rather have a low key as good a singer without all that drama. Oh, well, the judges' choice.
I bet you thought what the heck! ...nm

heck yeah!
I'm single, 44 and have 2 grandkids (my girls are 21, 24 and 26) - one more grandchild on the way! And I start training tomorrow nite to become a foster parent  ... I told my kids it's either a puppy or a baby, so we settled on foster parenting lol... I'm glad I had my kids early, it gave me a chance to grow up with them if you would and they couldn't pull any shenanigans... made it a lot easier for me to relate to what they were going thru and know what they were up to haha... my mom was clueless due to her being 36 years older than me... it was really rough raising 3 girls by myself - especially the 2 oldest that were so close in age - it was the hormone house from hell, but I would do it all over again if i could in a heartbeat! 
What the heck does CRCT stand for?
I live in Virginia and they take SOLs here. My daughter will have to take it for the first time this year, but I've heard that if they don't pass the SOL test then they don't move on to the next grade!! I really hope this isn't true, it's a LOT of pressure.
Heck no sounds like you can't tell the difference.

Ah heck, she just made you a cake
and didn’t want to tell you any different.
new grads--how in the heck to they make any
I went to a brick and mortar college for my year long MT educational course which included a 225 hour preceptorship at a local clinic. I obtained a job at a local hospital and was STILL looking up stuff and asking for help from the gals I worked with. I think it's incredibly nieve for anyone to think they can take a correspondence course and jump right in to making any money at this. Things like peau d’ orange and "full stop", they don't teach you that in school, you need hands on for a while.
Mine sure as heck did - he became a 'she'.
Aw heck, I'm a total hick and even I know to call...
on an RSVP to let them know that they can count me in or out. It just seems like one of those common courtesy things...at least call whoever to let them know you got the invite for sure and it wasn't lost in the mail.
Heck no! 40 is a great age- you know enough not to mess around but you don't have Alzheimer's
How the heck do some of these people have money for all the surgeries? NM

And what the heck is "mechanically separated chicken"?? nm

Heck no! Finally had to get a fake one due to hub's allergies, but it is a beauty once it's up

To Heck With Ole Santa Clause - Loretta Lynn
Ay-Ay-Ay it's Christmas and I don't know what to do -- Ay-ay-ay It's Christmas and I don't have a gift for you. My kids especially love it! They sing it to me and in response I sing to them "I'm Getting Nothing for Christmas" -- except changed to "You're Getting Nothing for Christmas."
If anything irks the heck out of me, it is when "single mother" is mentioned as to
why someone would be more entitled to get something. What it means to me is she should wait for kids until maybe she can afford them and not before. Being single does not entitle. Dang, I know welfare folks who feel about the same entitlement and they use the welfare system and have gotten plenty, section 8, food stamps and just because something free, they would wait hours in line to get a freebie. I know 1 lady, previously married, 2 kids, got welfare, food stamps and yet living with a guy who had a city job making good money. Sorry but I feel different about food stamps because I have seen so much abuse go on and definitely hate the fact when someone brings up "single" mother meaning they should get more just because they did not think ahead about feeding extra mouths.
Adam and Eve, to tell them to stay the heck away from the forbidden tree!!! sm
Tell me we wouldn't be in better shape just hanging in the Garden of Eden??? (When my daughter was little, she used to wish she had a time machine so she could go back).
short arms, short-term memory loss...
I too suffer from Short Arm Syndrome. Add to that the short-term memory loss that middle-age brings and I have now discovered I need to lasso the &*%$ reading glasses around my neck or my day will be spent wandering in circles asking the dog where my glasses are.
I have two pairs, per advice of doctor. I do not wear glasses all the time, so he thought I was not ready for bifocals. My son gave me a wonderful eyeglass case for Christmas that is big enough to hold both pairs should I ever venture out of the house amongst the living.
I did manage to find some "sporty" looking around-the-neck-eye glass holder thingies - what DO you call those things? I'd use twine before getting those multicolored beaded ones. I have a neon coral one and an emerald green one. Too bad I can't find the former, I can't remember where I put it.
Heck yeah I'd love a gift certificate to Tractor Supply!
I found a really neat gift there for a horse lover thats only $50. It's a (fake) bush that is cut like a horse and has Christmas lights on it. Very cool (at least I thought so!)
Maybe a personalized saddle pad? You could get someone to embroider his name (or his horses name) on it.
Heck no!! In fact just bought a GMC Yukon Denali to haul the family around in for trips.
