I went Christmas shopping this afternoon, could not for the life of me find my parking ticket anywhere so had to press the little help button on the machine, security guard answered and we had the following conversation -

Me: Hello, I've lost my parking ticket
Him: no problem, what's your car registration?
Me: uhhh, emmm, ahhh, shit I can't remember it I'm sorry hold on I can look it up on my insurance email!
Him: That's okay, what level are you parked on and what is the car make and model?
Me: okay, I'm parked on level 5. NO NO 6!! And my car is a Toyota Yaris. No wait no it's not! I drive a Ford focus now.
Him: sniggering okay, make your payment on the screen now.

Fuck me. It's been a long day. Week. Month.

Me! Perimeno brain fog and exhaustion mixed with mental load drain of Xmas and Birthdays. DH has been less help than usual because MIL is in hospital at the moment so he's been visiting her every day he's not been working. My house is a tip, I wake up tired and go to sleep tired. I'm on autopilot most days like a zombie.
On the plus side I finish work tomorrow so will try to sleep and rest for a few days in between all the family visiting over this period.

Yes, luckily I have a damn good excuse with brain fog following a disease!

But it's horrible not being able to think properly

Thank god I'm not alone. There has just been so much going on for the last 3 months with our family but it's sort of all come to a head this month and between that and Christmas stress I'm just totally zoned out! I'm saying wrong words and mixing words around in sentences and just in my own world!
