What was I doing?

An elephant never forgets, but a Rex Felixx always does. I noticed recently that I have not been able to remember as well as I have in the past. (I mean I am 35 now so I am pretty old) I’m not sure if its because I keep so much information on my phone that I don’t need to remember as much. Or I have too much information hitting me 24/7 that I can’t process it as quickly or retain as much as I want to.

I want to be able to remember memories and important dates in my head up until i’m into my nineties. I have to start thinking about using my brain to work it out and push it to remember more. I have seen supplements and other products used to help increase memory strength. I also noticed crossword puzzles or other mind games that can potentially help. If anyone has any other remedies that they use or solutions let me know. I also feel like it is hard to gauge if I am retaining more information after doing mind exercises. It’s not like training in the gym where you can work at a certain muscle group and see results. That could be a reason why I struggle with trying new ways to help with my memory. It harder to see results or even notice the results. I’m open to anything and everything. The mind is a terrible thing to waste, and we all want to remember as much as we can for as long we can.

Cheers,

Rex Felixx

P.S. Anyone know where I left my car keys?

Christmas Time is here.

The evergreen smell is filling our house as we prepare to get ready for Christmas this year. I enjoy Christmas so much and I love spending time with my family. This year we get to wake up and see the face of our little Adalaide smiling at the sight of Christmas morning. (well probably drooling and crying because… she is a baby) Words can’t describe this upcoming feeling of wanting to start these new traditions with her. My whole life I got to enjoy the traditions of our family from being a little tike to being an adult. However, now we get to embrace new traditions and new joys of having a little one in our home on Christmas morning. It is a surreal feeling. I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and hope you keep up the traditions you had as a child every year. Enjoy the memories this upcoming holiday and be present in the moment. Social media should take a step back and really enjoy the company of others this weekend

Memories

come back into our head,

after the scents

of Gingerbread,

and carols of yesteryear

echoe in our ears.

Gather around the table,

and feast on the finest Roastbeast.

as merriment, happiness, and joy

converse among our family cheer.

No sorrow, no pain , no worry, no angst

let us hold off and have an armistice

until tomorrow or forever

Amen.

Cheers
