oh, Princessa, I have to repeat and repeat, repeatedly, to obviate the senescence factor.

I have developed acronyms for my chores and tasks.

I make a WORD out of the first letters for what I have to do, during the ten or fifteen GOOD minutes I'll have standing and walking...

hence: CLAWS (Carrots, Lettuce, Alfalfa hay, Water & Salt licks) for my trip to the bunny hutch...

I view each section, and run quickly through the acronym, to ensure everybody's happy and squared away, because I *know* I won't have the strength to walk back over there, if I REMEMBER something later.

lol, B2Y... I was quietly saying CLAWS, CLAWS, as I circled the racks of cages, when I heard an "AHEM!" and discovered mi esposo looking at me from the other side!
