It helps to keep me occupied because there are a lot of things I can’t do now. If only more elderly folk would try doing it there would not be half so many old ones being lonely.
Especially when things go wrong and they assume its broken now

My Noggin seems to have kept items from eight and a half decades ago.
It tends to pull them all out at unwanted times, or misses out important dates, facts ,etc.
That's a logical explanation for what happens to most of us - well certainly to me - as we grow older.
I tend to forget some recent things (to Marge's exasperation!) - because my brain is full!
Yet I remember things from decades ago, and even my childhood - because they are occupying the space in my brain and leaving little space for anything new.
It all makes perfect sense!
I should write a paper on it.

Unfortunately, banging your head on the cupboard door doesn't work like that!

I think I am learning by how much it hurts, obviously it didn’t hurt enough.
I’ve learnt not to rush down the stairs, that took a while...not until I missed the bottom two steps and landed badly....never done it again,
I would say we all learn differently....
