About a year ago, I had to visit a podiatrist. When she was looking at my feet, she asked me, "When was the last time you put lotion on your feet?"

Okay. So I know what lotion is. But how was I ever supposed to know that I was to put it on my feet? I told her that I had never done that because I never knew about doing that. I was 73 at the time.

Did they talk about this on one of the days I was absent from school? Somehow I had missed the memo.
