Could this be you?

 A couple in their nineties were both having memory problems. 🤔🧓👵

During a check-up, the doctor said they were physically fine but might want to start writing things down to help with their forgetfulness. 📝
Later that night, while watching TV 📺, the old man gets up from his chair.
“Want anything while I’m in the kitchen?” he asks.
“Yes, a bowl of ice cream,” she replies. 
🍨
“Sure,” he says, heading to the kitchen.
“Don’t you think you should write it down?” she asks sweetly.
“No need,” he replies. “I can remember that.” 
😄
“Well, I’d like strawberries on top, too. 
🍓 Maybe write it down?”
“I got it,” he says. “Ice cream with strawberries.”
“And whipped cream,” she adds. “Please write it down!”
“I don’t need to write it down! Ice cream, strawberries, whipped cream!” he shouts from the kitchen. 
😤
Twenty minutes later, he shuffles back with a plate of bacon and eggs. 🥓🍳
She stares at it and says,
“So… where’s the toast?!
*************************************
I sent this to a friend similar age to me and her response was..
'Could be me if I got to 90.'
I replied 'no way, you're too on the ball and would get your own ice cream, strawberries and cream!'
Me??
I'd say 'where's the marmalade?'
