I've found that as I get older & busier, my days just go faster - especially, as others have mentioned, i'm enjoying my day.

since you have free health care, maybe they can test your memory?

i have a son who has a learning disability. part of it is memory related. he tests off the chart for originality, but he has deficits in long-term, short-term & working memory.

so, from first hand observation, there's a big difference from being engaged so that your day goes really fast and having functional problems. and, other more traditional drugs could be contributing to your problem if you take any of those. i know several people who have stopped taking lipitor because of major memory problems. benzos are also notoriously famous for causing memory lapses.

(between the learning disability and the fact that alzheimers runs on both sides of my family, i'm always interested in anything that messes with the memory.)
