I remember Barry Farber telling about his memory. Said he could remember when he walked standing up under the table and didn’t touch it. He couldn’t talk yet but he remembers it all very well. I can’t remember diddley!
I even remember being potty trained at 3 years old. I also remember throwing my bottle out of the crib for the last time probably around sometime when I was 2-ish and my mother chastising my older sister for still wanting her bottle.(She is 352 days older than me. We’re Catholic.)
And I do remember having to pull myself way up to the counter to see what was on it. So I was smaller than what, 36 inches?
My sister had the same memory but after using a certain birth control she had what I think were some mini strokes and has lost her long term memory. She now refers to mine knowing how clear and exact it is.
Funny thing though, she and I also share the same thoughts. I live in Georgia and she is in Seattle. We have bought the same clothes, books, checks, CDs sometimes on the same day. We have called each other and gotten busy signals despite having call waiting as we are calling each other at the exact same second. One night, after I got out of the shower, I took the lid off my Q-tip holder and was going to reach for one but dropped the lid and almost started crying. I put my hands over my ears and backed out of the room trying not to wail. I didn’t understand it but found out the next day that my sister had punctured her eardrum with a Q-tip the day before. 3500 miles away.
Well, you and I are in the same boat....maybe age is part of the problem...but there are young granny’s also...:O) goat granny.....GG
