I am still working as the Treasurer for a Veterans Organization.
If I start getting foggy with the financial matters they are in big

I suppose that they could always hire some outside help but that
would be a far more inconvenient way for them to operate.

The man who had been one of our Chaplains for many years is now in a
nursing home diagnosed with Alzheimer's.

Evelyn said this disease often begins with depression. I think as
long as we can stay engaged with a variety of activities, maintain
an optimistic attitude, do our chores and take care of our finances
with no strain and properly, we need not worry about a few memory
lapses that seem to accompany old age. These are temporary and
recoverable.

I am sure if I began deteriorating somone in my family would
pick up on it. Those who have no one close may not have this
advantage.

I recently had to file an income tax return with some income
of a category I had not dealt with before. I've always done
my own taxes. But this time it seemed very complex. So I
decided to take it one line at a time, referring back to the
instruction booklet and not getting panicky. I was able to
master it and if I did make a mistake I'm sure the IRS will
let me know:)



Rita, you are as sharp as ever. Not to worry! :-)

If I start falling apart online, be sure to let me know:)
There are a few posters I read in another group who seem to
be a bit confused, you perhaps know what I am talking about.


I think certain ones seem as if they are posting while drunk.
