A sudoku a day, makes the memory stay…

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

I’ve noticed over time that my memory just isn’t what it used to be. There was a time when I could remember all the phone numbers of my friends by heart and now I have to whip out my phone or planner to confirm. Getting older sucks. So I’ve been looking into methods to help it out. J’s told me a ton of times that it’s good to work on the sudoku puzzles because they’re good for the memory and brain. It’s great brain work, I’ll admit. I even downloaded it on my Moto Q so that I could practice when I’m riding the bus or otherwise in a place where I don’t have access to a more traditional method. It’s not helped yet, or at least I haven’t noticed. But maybe it’s one of those things that just takes a while to really have a noticeable effect.
