365 Senior Moments You'd Rather Forget Mass Market Paperback – September 1, 2012

Comical for anyone in their golden years

As all of us old geezers know, growing old has its pluses and minuses. On one hand our memories sometimes fail us and some of us become senile, but the positive factor is we always get to meet new friends every day. One of the most important things to have as a senior is a sense of humor and that is why I purchased this little 138 page paperback (365 Senior Moments You’d rather forget by Karen O’Connor) book. Laughter is an important part of living a healthy lifestyle.I found this book to have some very funny senior moments, but most of them were merely amusing. It is easy to relate to some of these lapses of memory incidents as we age such as leaving the car running and losing your house keys. At this point in my life I am glad that I have not experienced the majority of things mentioned in this amusing book. Some of the lapses of memory that I found somewhat amusing in this book include the following:“Searching for your favorite pen and finding it perched behind your ear.” “Cutting your own hair to save money and being shocked at the result.” (Note: I did get better with practice). “Making a shopping list then forgetting it at home.” (Which means I bought more than I had planned?) “Fertilizing the lawn before pulling the weeds.” “Leaving home without your house keys and ID.”If you are an old geezer with a sense of humor you will find many of these examples very amusing.Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: The Samurai Soul: An old warrior’s poetic tribute).

The author wrote the book on many personal experiences which in turn expressed the lighter side of many humancharacteristics. It also allowed the reader to step back and laugh at oneself.

This was for my moms 90th birthday . I know she will relate to many of the inscriptions. Going to add to a basket ful of memories or her.

I love how Karen puts these amusing anecdotes together to give us a lighthearted view of ourselves. Now I don't feel so bad about my own "brain hiccups"! Thank you, Karen, for collecting these gems and putting them together in such a refreshing way, and for helping us goldenagers maneuver these not-so-calm waters.

Gave me some good laughs as well as thoughts re. common sense- - was able to use for teaching..Blessings, Birgitta Nilson

This little book was very funny. I have made many of the snafus described in the book. I have shared it with other residents at our assisted living facility. We had a lot of good laughs.

As expected.

I already had one so bought a copy for a friend for his 78 birthday

bought as a gift

Some funny but real incidents for anyone having a "senior moment".

Great little book. Enjoyed all the jokes. Maybe because I am a senior. I would reccomend it to anyone. Happy reading.
