When I am in the bathroom each morning putting my makeup on and doing my hair, I am always thinking of things I need to do (Dr. appt., errands to run, calls to make, gifts to get, birthday reminders, the list goes on) or stuff I need to buy at the store.

One day I had a dry erase marker in my bathroom drawer (why I even put it there in the first place is beyond me). I got it out and began writing my thoughts on the mirror. Wow. this was a life saver for me!

When I'm done in the bathroom I transfer the list to paper and put it in my purse immediately. If it is something that needs to be done around the house I leave it on the mirror until it is done (or if company is coming over, I write it down elsewhere). I hope this works well for you too!

I have a great little computer program that I use to remind me of everything from Birthdays to important appointments. It gives you a calendar and you can set up reminders to be sent to you via e-mail. Since I am on my computer each day, I find it very useful. Hope this helps others. www.mymemorizer.com

I also put dry erase markers in my cars. Then if I'm out and see a phone number that I want I just write on the window. My kids have one in their car also. These just wipe off with a napkin.

hi if you go to real simple.com they have lists like a whole year and sections like to put birthdays on. I put mine in the bathroom. Also since my lovely daughter loves to tear paper alot and I can't really keep anything on the walls (like calendars and such) I try to reminder and put it on the cabintets. I do have a calendar but it is in between the toaster and the microwave. I keep a cutting board on the side of the toaster and then I put the calendar there it is not hidden so when I do my coffee or her toaster strudel in the morning I can look at it to see what is going on or I have the whole month of lunch menu there and look to see if she would like the day's lunch or if I have to pack it.

The bathroom mirror and also a sticky note to my computer helps me remember appointments.
