Now to prove my point, yesterday, when I got home from Church - I decided to have a Lean Cuisine. I followed the instructions by taking the tray out of the carton and placing it in the oven. I then, without realizing, started the microwave for 4 minutes. When the bell rang, I was shocked when I opened the door and my dinner was not there - suddenly I remembered I had put it in the oven. Of course, I had not turned the oven on. The instructions were to cook in the microwave so why I put it in the oven (must have been a senior moment)LOL.

My next surprise was getting ready for Sunday evening service, touching up my face with powder, etc. I have a gold small can of Hydration which I spray on my face to set the powder. Somehow, I picked up the same size can except it was silver and sprayed my face all over. All of a sudden I realized I had just sprayed my face with lens cleaner. I called Jo Faye told her what happened and then went on to Church. She told me my face looked good - didn't have any wrinkles. LOL - I accidentally found the fountain of youth. LOL.

Well, I hope all of you have a good week! I hope my mind catches up with me soon. LOL.
