Remembering Special Days

[Janet]

I always use one of those large desk calendars and put magnets on the back. It's then put on the fridge so we can put all appts, work schedules...etc. In the computer room...I have to have my Yorkie calendars...lol

Wouldn't you know it, I had every intention of mailing some of the cards that I did last night, but just as I was about to leave with keys almost in hand to head to the post office, I got a call from one of my customers. I'm "on call" this weekend, and I had to arrange for a big valve to be hotshotted from Houston for them this afternoon. Bummer...now the cards will be late. Our mailbox is in a stone enclosure and doesn't have a flag on it, so I have to go to the post office to mail things. Oh, well, can't give up....just a little setback!!

I knew my SIL's birthday was January 2nd. I even ordered his gift this week. So, when Jessie called me on Friday and asked me if I remembered that it was Steve's birthday, I had to answer that I do know that, and ordered my gift. I
just didn't know that it was this January 2nd.

Point being, even if I do remember a birthday, I don't connect it with the date it falls on. It's just too late to try to get this under control. It has already spiralled.

I know my name, my address, that my car is red, Jessie's phone number, and of course Max and Annie's names. I'm good.

I'm the same way at times Judy. I'm just not good unless it written down and then most of the time I don't read it until that day or the day after....LOL.
