Daily Joke: An older couple were having memory problems

An 80-year old couple were having trouble remembering things, so they decided to go to their doctor to make sure nothing was wrong with them. When they arrived at the doctor’s office, they explained to the doctor the problems they were having.

After checking the couple out, the doctor told them that they were physically okay but might want to start writing things down, making notes to help them remember things. The couple thanked the doctor and left.

Later that night while watching TV, the old man got up from his chair and his wife asked: “Where are you going?”

He replied: “To the kitchen.”

She asked: “Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?”

“Sure.”

Then his wife asked him: “Don’t you think you should write it down so you can remember it?”

“No, I can remember that.”

“Well, I also would like some strawberries on top. You had better write that down cause I know you’ll forget that,” his wife said.

“I can remember that, you want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries.”

She replied: “Well, I also would like whipped cream on top. I know you will forget that. You had better write it down.”

With irritation in his voice, he said: “I don’t need to write that down, I can remember that.” He went into the kitchen.

After about 20 minutes, he returned from the kitchen and handed her a plate of bacon and eggs.

She stared at the plate for a moment and said: “You forgot my toast.”
