Car key lost and found/Carlos Pueblo
Busy
Saturday morning, I was on my second schedule at the community
center for
my Spanish class. I was glad to come in early before the office
opening at
8:30 am because of drizzling and the match was canceled. I
went inside
to the reception room for some reading before the class and
a couple of
ladies came later sit by me. I believed that they were in an
English
lesson; therefore, I decided to leave. I believed that my car key
was slipped away
from my sport pant pocket. I went to the class, brief
ping pong
and was ready to take off home. There was only the house key
left on the
right side of pocket and the left was only for my wallet. I was in
panic and
decided to go inside to follow my tracks of the morning. I asked
the center
staff if there was a key found. He asked me what kind of car and
my answer
was matched with the lost key found. I escaped one unnecessary
issue.
I blame it
for my aging problem and of course, my negligent for not be careful.
I combine
the house and car key chain together plus a new library key card to
become a big
chain to become an insurance to avoid the same scenery of
awkward
situation. When I try to mention someone or something now, I sometimes
need to have
a pause till my memory comes back to me. It may take a few moments
and usually
I shall ask to change the subject and the interruption might lose
the momentum
forever. It is sad.
People tell
me that older men remember well for the past and easily forget the
current stuff
and advise me to keep on using our brain regularly like we exercises
ourselves to
avoid the rate of decay. I find that is interesting to learn foreign
languages
even though the progress is limited. I only like to read and speak in case
of needs. I
drive more often not like the previous years when I limited myself at
home. I’ll
run into issues like old car maintenance, key lost, and unfamiliar with
the schedule
of libraries and community center, etc. At least I am back to move
around in
the community and I am happy.
