Got to love that fog

The other day my mother was getting things ready for a yard sale and she pulled out some books we had stored. She waved a book at me that was by my favorite author and asked if I wanted to sell it. I had forgotten the plot so I told her I wanted to read it again.
Today I was almost finished reading it and I glanced over at my bookcase. Lo and behold, there was the same book in a stack I had just purchased.

I keep buying multiples of books thanks to this swiss cheese brain of mine!
I love this illness, not!

So glad I'm not the only unintentional "hoarder"!

I now put a tiny, tiny check mark on the inside front cover of library books so I don't keep checking out the same ones over and over. My biggest fear is someone locally will discover this fabulous method and start using it themselves.

And I can't tell you all how much it means to me to come here and be reminded that I am not alone.
The looks - oh, the looks - that I get every time I try to describe my mental processes - ah, HOME!

Good luck on your yard sale, Joy...

Ooh, but I have piles of books, lol

I forgot about this...and it only happened yesterday. I was at a store and bought 2 bottles of canola oil thinking I needed it and came home to see I had 2 1/2 bottles on the shelf. Hopefully I won't be buying anymore soon..
