Losing my brain

Thursday night I put together our grocery list. I keep having to go back and add things because of things I didn't remember to put on it. On Friday morning just as I was heading out the door for school I thought of 2 more things. I didn't have time to find a pencil (which sometimes takes awhile at this house, and forget about finding a pen) and to write the items on my list. So I left remembering that one item started with 3 letters and the other with 4. By lunch yesterday I could only remember what the 4 letter item was. It bothered me the rest of the day, and the hour I'm walking around the store. I had to make a pit stop to the bathroom before checking out. While in there I over hear a little boy saying to his Mommy he is done with his gum. The light bulb in my brain goes off! GUM! That's my 3 letter item! I like to keep gum at school for after lunch because I hate being in student's faces with blah breath. After lunch yesterday I grabbed my last piece, and one would think that would have triggered my brain that, that was my missing 3 letter item, but sadly it did not. I thanked the little boy in the bathroom, his Mom thought I was funny. I just think I'm losing my brain. What reminded of this story is that I just thought to myself, there's something else I want to do online right, but I can't remember what it is :( I'm sure it wasn't any big deal and I can do it later, but it still bothers me that I can't remember what it was.
