Have you ever forgot if you already posted about something ? I mean I just dread going way back over my posts to see if I am beating the same drum over. 
Have you ever been tempted to buy something you already have too much of? Like I have very little room any more and its not just my own house now but I have too much jewelry I no longer wear , yet collected and still love and to many paper dolls I collected for years, yet I see more online I would like to have but have to stop myself from buying. 
Then there are things I have bought over just because I am so cramped here yet needed it and thought I did not have it, only to find it later. 
Is it just me being so forgetful ?
They say an elephant never forgets. Why? Is it because they go back to the same place to die where they were born or what?

Yes, I have bought something I already had and forgot I bought it already. I forgot something what was very important and cannot remember what it was.

@bunnybon7 This must be genetic, Mom is 96 and she has an excellent memory, I would say better than mine.

@bunnybon7 I wouldn't worry about posting the same thing. There are always newbies here or people without elephant memories.

I am forgetful too. I usually recall if I bought something cause I use it. Elephants have good instincts and I think that helps.

i have that awful misfortune of worrying about things ahead of time. so buy more then i can use right away, plus everyone else comes needing things i have and not having much room things get put away and also times others ask me and get things till i am not sure if i am out of something if i can't find it
