I am going to be boringly serious for a couple of minutes.

For my darling wife was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease (PD) 30 months ago and the tremors in her right hand are getting in the way of Jeannie using a computer mouse. So did some research online and, wow, the number of electronic and technology aids for not only PD
sufferers but for many of the challenges us senior folk experience

blew me away!


Thanks Paul I’ll pray for Jeannie my wife is an occupational therapist in a senior living center there are wonderful new technologies out there

as the story goes:
Grandma turned 90 and started walking 5 miles a day.
we have no idea where she is.


My mother-in-law turned 90 last December. She's my favorite party animal and is driving over for our anniversary dinner today. Her eldest sib is 98. Her mother threw in the towel at 103 having been alive in three different centuries. Perhaps my mother-in-law just had good genes, and some of them are tight genes!

I'm 82 and would not go back in time. I love every day and thank God for my blessings. Today is a present. Did I forget anything? If I did ask my wife she know everything; or so she says!

Perhaps the manual could clarify.


Perhaps he can't remember where he left it.

How will the manual know where grandma is?

At 82, I've never had a "Senior Moment"! I will admit to several "Intellectual Interludes" daily! Sounds so much more sophisticated.

There is nothing wrong with having a senior moment; unless they last all day. It's 5:30 am and I'm going to get my coffee.

Of all the things I have ever lost in my life, the one I miss most is my mind.

It's under the Photo Shooting Menu - Image area - Choose image area - Auto DX crop. Set Auto DX crop to On. The camera will automatically select the DX crop when a DX lens is attached.

Wish I could help you, but I don't remember what the question was! Don't worry though. From here on out your memory will just get worse until you get to the point where you can't remember what you forgot. Then, all will be good! Used to be I couldn't remember what I had for breakfast. Now, I don't remember if I even had breakfast.


Hell....when I go to the bathroom I just sit down. By the time I get there, I forgot what I came here for. Four weeks ago the guy standing next to me knew I was in the wrong position.

I remember one time my mother in law took a walk and got lost, when she finally got in touch via telephone, I said I'm sorry, you have the wrong number.

I have a Nikon 750 and I remember a setting in the menu for DX and FX lens I cannot find it now. The scary part is was there ever a setting for that on the menu ? Clarity would be much appreciated.

Thank you as always
Joe

When I saw your title I was immediately reminded of a cartoon that made the rounds at our photo club meeting yesterday: The 1st Senior Moment.

Getting older and sometimes I too have a "memory challenge". It really gets "interesting" at times.

As like this morning. I awoke, got my slippers and my robe on, I walk into the kitchen to start the coffee and my oatmeal. At some point, I always have the feeling that I have been here before...

Life is a continual "Deja Vu" for me.
