Senior Moment? by Donna Golden


Sevan Tutunciyan Date: 2/28/2011 11:42:00 PM I love this poem, again so many meanings can come out of it (being a senior being the very last one) . It begs the question of how we find our way as much how we lose our way sometimes :)
Ronald Bingham Date: 12/13/2009 10:56:00 AM Well I don;t know if I qualify as a senior or not, (61) but I do have lots of those moments when I get up to do something and completely forget why I got up. So I return to my couch potato position in hopes that whatever it was may or may not return. God Bless and thanks for your much appreciated comments. Ron
Date: 12/13/2009 10:48:00 AM I enjoyed running into this one. Made me chuckle. Thanks for sharing this day brightener and for your kind thoughts on my illness. Karen

Just wanted to stop by and say thank you for such a very thoughtful comment on my Heart. Means very much to me. Hugs for you, shar xoxo

SillyBilly theKidster Date: 11/17/2009 12:56:00 AM This is just one outsiders thought as to what it might be that leaves you wondering what you forgot. If you're interested, read my piece titled Maybe You Should...What? Please know prior to reading that this is just my way of trying to be funny. No judements here. Best Wishes Always Donna.

Laurie Ginn Date: 11/16/2009 6:05:00 PM I chose to read this one because boy do I get the senior thing way too often but I cracked up when I read it. You're so nuts! From one that is much more senior than you don't ever stop laughing~
Robert A. Dufresne Date: 11/9/2009 3:41:00 AM Ahh, forgetting ! My forte! And now my inspiration for today. Thank you Donna.
Carolyn Devonshire Date: 11/3/2009 9:08:00 PM Hey, Donna, when you find the answer, please share it with me. Of course, you'll have to remind me again the next day. Great senryu! Love, Carolyn
Raul Moreno Date: 10/31/2009 11:28:00 PM Donna thank you for your continued support. It really means much to me. This is an excellent senryu by the way. Keep being an inspiration...Raul
Date: 10/31/2009 5:04:00 PM Got a chuckle out of this one. Thank you for sharing this day brightener with us. Karen
Doris Culverhouse Date: 10/29/2009 5:14:00 PM I am not there either but I walk into a room and go why? what? but it does come to me later.
Debbie Guzzi Date: 10/29/2009 4:27:00 PM know don't I? Light & Love
Elaine George Date: 10/29/2009 9:31:00 AM BRILLIANT MINDS HAVE NOT ROOM FOR SUCH TRIVIAL THINGS! LOL, DONNA. AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT I TELL MYSELF. LOVE, LAINIE
Ronald Bingham Date: 10/27/2009 2:45:00 PM I don't think you have to be old to have those senior moments, it just makes it easier to get away with it. ( Does being 61 mean you are a senior, I can't remember!) God Bless. Ron
Yoni Dvorkis Date: 10/27/2009 7:10:00 AM oh it's quite easy actually. I'm only 26 and I do this at least 4 times a week. You start with a real idea of what the objective is and then your mind drifts to the farthest reaches of memory lane. By the time you come out of it you'd be lucky even to remember where you are right now, never mind where you're going.
Sue Mason Date: 10/26/2009 2:22:00 PM LOL wonderful here, Donna. You've captured the phenomena brillantly ... smile ... I had to add it to my "favorites" list ...
Robin L. Gass Date: 10/26/2009 5:04:00 AM LOL! Been there! I'm 46 and have had these moments on occaision and then I think "uh-oh" then laugh at myself! Perfect and creative Senyru, Donna! Love, Robin
john freeman Date: 10/22/2009 5:56:00 PM Don't have to be senior to have a senior citizen moment,Lol. I've had them all my life, Sincerely, Love, moses
Linda-Marie SweetHeart Date: 10/22/2009 3:54:00 PM Donna ... enjoyed your take on us seniors ...unique and true in some cases... not me... not yet ... interesting write... more to come I hope... Linda-Marie
Sara Kendrick Date: 10/21/2009 12:12:00 PM Written on a topic that affects many young and old. Sometimes in young people the reason is simply stress or maybe I should say distress. Too much to do in too short period of time. Thanks for your reading my work and commenting on it. Keep writing. Sara
James Fraser Date: 10/21/2009 11:18:00 AM I think this is a situation that affects a lot of people, i can concur slightly with this >> nice shortie Donna >> James
Carol Sunshine Brown Date: 10/21/2009 9:11:00 AM Wish I could help you out Donna but......I seem to be having a senior moment. Love, Carol
Tim Ryerson Date: 10/20/2009 6:25:00 PM Oh yeah, Donna!... I can identify, and I AM a senior (or closing in rapidly) It doesn't happen to me all that much though (maybe only 10-20 times a day!) - Tim
