But it was on a very steep hill.facing up hill,When she got back in the car I tried to drive forward, it kept going backwards DOWNHILL,It was awful,I thought I would kill the old lady, she was as white as a sheet ( she is 86) so I shouted out to a man, " Can you help me please " he ran over & while it was slowly going backwards (hand brake on, )He jumped in & said well you didnt have the motor turned on (BLUSH!!!BLUSH!!!! Oh I guess Alzhemiers on the way

Oh, Mouthy! I'm glad you're OK but really there must be better ways to save on petrol! lol Thanks for the laugh this morning.
When I lived in S. Florida the old folk were always creating drive- through windows where none existed. It was a daily occurance.

'said well you didnt have the motor turned on'
Yahbut, it gets really good gas mileage like that. It's really quiet, too;)

Dearest Grandmama,
I hardly think you have to worry about alheimers disease because of a goofy mistake. Besides, you had enough cognizance to ask for help, so worry not.
The man who answered your call is an angel and I hope you gave him a big kiss.

LOL don't feel bad Grace, we all sometimes have our minds somewhere else! Just a week ago, I locked my keys in my car and started to panic. Then I called a friend to come unlock my car with a coat hanger...after I had called I remembered I kept an extra key inside my purse. I felt like a total moron calling the friend back and saying nevermind, I just remembered I have an extra key! Is that called half timers?

Don't feel bad, Granny...
When it happens to a young one, it is seen as forgetfulness. And when it happens to an older one, it is seen as Alzheimer.
It happens to all of us. It is just funny...after the 'panic' moment is passed and no one is hurt

You're OK until you do what I did: Forget the engine is still running. It runs so smooth that I don't feel the vibrations. I have to remember to turn it off and forget sometimes until I realize why the key won't come out of the ignition. That's pathetic!
