When I leave my cell phone at night to charge, and in order to not forget it the next morning, I put the cell phone inside my purse with the cord visibly sticking out. When I am ready to leave the house in the morning, I am "forced" to remember my cell phone. I then detach the cord and leave the house smiling at this clever reminding method.
I have the same problem with car keys. They are now secured to my purse by a key chain that is clipped to my purse! I resolved that problem after locking myself out of my car once!

I used to forget my phone whenever I had it on charge. Now, I use an ice cream stick (the rounded kind). I wrote the word "PHONE" on it. Whenever I have my phone charging up, I place the stick on the end of my table where I am sure to see it. Sometimes, I place my keys beside it. I have not forgotten my phone since. I hope this helps you to not forget your phone.

To remember to take my cell phone with me after charging it in the bathroom, I put my purse in the bathroom, too. Haven't left the phone and taken my purse since I started doing that!

RE: Remembering the Cell Phone
I would think that the dampness of a bathroom is not a safe place for charging a cell phone. I am always hearing about the dangers of your cell phone getting wet. (12/11/2004)
