FORGETFUL

Where in the world was my mind yesterday?    I went to the gym, right next to Hannaford's, and made a quick stop to pick up some groceries.    Going through the self-checkout line I used my debit card and got some cash for the upcoming week.

The afternoon went by and Leon and I went to water plants and stopped by to see Martha - when I looked in my purse and couldn't find the $100 I just received.   Oh, no!   Did I leave it at the register?    Did it slip out of my handbag?   I remember throwing my receipt in the store waste basket.    In looking on computer I had proof that I did take out the money.

Heading back to Hannaford's I asked the manager about the disappearing cash.   "So you are the one that likes leaving money around."    He opened a register and pulled some bills.   "Someone called our attention to it."   I couldn't thank him enough.   

How does one do that?   Leave money at the register without even giving it a thought and then missing it hours later.   I swear age is setting in and I certainly don't like it.
