    About this ebook

    Karen O’Connor, bestselling author of Gettin’ Old Ain’t for Wimps (more than 300,000 copies sold), offers a great collection of humorous anecdotes on senior moments. Readers in the better half of life will discover 365 rather funny situations to avoid, with some of them sounding all too familiar. They are encouraged to avoid…

    • leaving the key in the front door and going to sleep feeling secure.
    • purchasing a book to improve your memory but leaving it at the checkout counter.
    • dropping the boat anchor and then realizing it wasn’t tied to the boat.

    This warmhearted and playful book encourages laughter and taking life in stride.

      365 Senior Moments You'd Rather Forget - Karen O'Connor

      California

      365 Senior Moments You’d Rather Forget…

      Parking your car on the east side of the mall, walking out the west side, and then panicking when you can’t find your vehicle. That’s not so bad. It’s when you report it stolen…

      Mistaking chocolate syrup for barbecue sauce when preparing pork ribs.

      Spritzing your hair with furniture polish instead of hairspray, although both leave a nice sheen.

      Turning the bathroom sink faucet on and then leaving to do something while it warms up, only to return to a flood.

      Brushing your teeth with antifungal foot cream that’s in a tube similar to your toothpaste.

      Going down the slide at the playground with your grandchild and landing hard on your new hip.

      Using a cup of salt instead of a cup of sugar in a cake recipe.

      Putting your symphony tickets in a safe place and then forgetting where they are when you need them.

      Agreeing to meet a friend at Tenth and Central on May eighth and then showing up at Eighth and Central on May tenth.

      Planting bulbs you thought were tulips in the fall and being surprised when daffodils pop up in the spring.

      Arriving at your water aerobics class and realizing you forgot to pack your swimming suit.

      Putting your motel keycard to room 311 in the slot for room 211 and then raising a ruckus with the manager when the door won’t open.

      Trying to read a book and then realizing you have your spouse’s glasses on.

      Buying a shirt you like, only to get home and find an identical one in your closet.

      Signing up for a class and then realizing when you arrive that you’ve already taken it.

      Placing your umbrella on top of your car, driving off, and wondering later why it isn’t in the car since you distinctly remember picking it up.

      Trying to get cash from an ATM machine using a department store credit card.

      Slipping into shoes of the same style without looking and then later having a friend point out that one shoe is blue and one is brown.

      Taking photos with a disposable camera and then tossing the camera before developing the film.
