Even without wine, my brain now nopes out of any kind of analytical thinking after 5:30 or so. With wine... Let's just say that it's like this, but without the semi-hotties:

What's scary to me is that my recent cognitive issues (in English: slower reasoning abilities and maddening memory retrieval issues) can be early signs of eventual dementia. And one of the things that often happens in dementia is "sundowning", when behavior and what is left of reason go right out the window as the afternoon turns into the evening, and patients (I really hate that word; maybe "dementia victims") can become almost uncontrollable, example: wanting to get out of the house and fighting when blocked.

I'm not thrilled with the idea of going gaga at some point, but I REALLY don't want to have behavioral disturbances on top of it.

I'm telling myself that this new worry is one of those "knowing too much to be good for you" things. For instance, non-physicians who work in healthcare tend to file more medical insurance claims for visits, tests, etc. Going all "ruh-roh" a bit early. As far as I know, there is no peer-reviewed research dealing with this possibility, and I'm not going to start looking for it any time soon.

As my late mother-in-law used to say, "Getting old isn't for chickens!"

OK, it is now time for a second glass of wine! 🍷 <- except white
