LOL I photograph my car, too! I also photograph any identifying things near it, such as street signs or weird statues.

I like the photograph idea of the car. I wish I could take a video of walking to the appointment like hansel and gretel. I have walked around for 30 minutes using my car alarm looking for my car many times.
This has been so hard-to be relatively young and yet to have such an impaired memory. Mokey-you are not alone! This is just a new challenge and these are good ideas to help us along. I have learned a lot of new ideas here, as always. I feel like we could publish a really great book on best practices on how to live a best life after pcs/mtbi. ![]()

OMG I'm laughing, at least it's good to know you're not alone!
Cracked up at the Hansel and Gretel idea, we could put bread crumbs down but they'd probably get eaten by birds so we'd be back to square one.... The photographing of the car is a good one, never thought of it, can never ever remember where mine is, the direction I came in to the parking lot, left section or right... ![]() Don't know if anyone else does this but when I have an appt the next day, that night that's all I can think of...don't forget...and hardly get any rest which is of no help...oh boy... |
