Soap in the Air

I’ve been forgetting to complete things. Like putting things away after I’m done with them, closing containers, that sort of thing.

So when I started heating up my breakfast in the Crock Pot Express, I smelled dish soap and realized that I couldn’t remember whether I rinsed out the pot after I washed it last night. I quickly shut it down and released the pressure and opened the lid. No suds. No soap smell. I must have got detergent into the bobber valve or the release valve or something. It’s okay. Whew.

I don’t think it’s my age. I’ve always been absent-minded and I have to work hard to work around it. But when I’m off my game, it recurs.
