Is this common aging?No.
Life Hack:huh?
pay attention to whatever you are currently doing.
commonly park in?By itself, this isn't an issue to be concerned about. However, if there is a pattern of forgetfulness or memory loss, then you should start broaching the subject of going in for testing.
Cause that's what happened to my dad yesterday. He forgot where he parked in a Walmart he commonly goes to and spent like an hour finding the car. He found it eventually though by himself.
Is this common aging?
for normal daily activities, like going to the grocery store, i am shocked at how many of you forget where you parked. this is only a problem for me at giant parking lots, like airports, football games or concerts. and for that stuff, i take a photo of where i parked so i don't forget (esp clutch when long term parking at the airport).
I've gotten better but yeah I've def done this within the past year when just going to the grocery store lol
It's never a good feeling
For groceries the closer I can get to the store the easier it is for me to remember. If I have to park way in the back that's when I have trouble.
Fun trick:I'm no medical professional. Completely ignorant of radio waves and their effect on our bodies. But isn't this a bad idea?
Point your key fob under your chin and aimed up a little towards the upper back of your head, then start hitting the button.
It uses your skullcap as a reflector and damn near doubles the remote range.
I'm no medical professional. Completely ignorant of radio waves and their effect on our bodies. But isn't this a bad idea?It's not a bad idea per se but it doesn't work as skulls aren't made of the kind of material necessary to create this effect. It won't hurt you, but the worst thing that can happen is you look silly.
I'm no medical professional. Completely ignorant of radio waves and their effect on our bodies. But isn't this a bad idea?I can't imagine it's any worse than being in an area that gets radio reception, the waves are already everywhere.
It's not a bad idea per se but it doesn't work as skulls aren't made of the kind of material necessary to create this effect.I've personally had it work dozens of times.

Sure it's normal to forget exactly where you parked sometimes...but for an hour?Odds are, it takes an hour for a 74 year old just to walk around the entire area of a multi-level parking lot.
Forgetting where you parked is normal.Yeah, but there are intermediate signs that you can look for so we don't have to wait until full-blown dementia to prepare for it.
Forgetting that you have a car is dementia.
taking an hour though to find it?. wtf.How long do you think a 74 year old needs to walk the entire area of a multi-level parking lot?
Sometimes he would ask me if this was the street we would turn into driving back from a relative's place. It was subtle and not super obvious. I passed it off as '"old age."That is definitely an early warning sign.
People of all ages forget where they park from time to time.Thats why I tend to park in the the same place.
That is definitely an early warning sign.his night vision was also not great, but perhaps so.
He forgot where he parked in a Walmart he commonly goes to and spent like an hour finding the car.
Life Hack:i'm glad you're rich enough to pay attention
pay attention to whatever you are currently doing.
To prevent this, I park at the very back of the lot on the same spot every single time. It's basically impossible for me to forget where.This. I have to park in the same spot any time I go to the store otherwise Ill forget.
