TAKE A NOTE

[Duchess]

Do you jot notes to yourself?

I ask because I was going through a drawer in my desk and it's filled with notes to myself on scrap paper, everything from paint colors and width & length of things to stuff I don't have one single clue about and don't know why I would have wanted to remember it.

Yesterday I wrote coffee/creamer on my hand so I wouldn't forget.

What kills me is when I find those random notes and have no clue why I wrote them, and often what they even mean..sometimes they are just a random string of words that apparently meant something when I wrote them down.

I do it too. I wrote down a type of charcoal pleated AC filters on the back of my message pad the other day. I doubt I'll ever order the damn things even though they sounded good at the time I wrote it down.

I used to write to-do lists in college, notes no...not that I can remember...better write myself a note to try and remember if I ever wrote notes...

I do, but it's all electronic on my phone...I'll put shit on my calendar, and set reminders. I do come across some head scratchers on my desk at work though....and I KNOW those were/are important at one time......

[Carsman]

YES, write notes only for the important things, and then only for the unimportant things.

Yea, I have to regularly go through them to glean out anything permanant I need to keep, put that in my address book or whatever and trash the rest.
