Ziggy by Tom Wilson & Tom II for July 19, 2023

I feel your pain, Ziggy.

some things are better left unremembered

I can’t find a pen and paper when I need it or the phone app for notes and end up sending myself an email – as long as the phone is handy.

Or your files.

Keep your notebook on your computer, and you’ll always be able to find it… if you remember your password.

A few years ago I seen a soft-covered book in a book-store called “The Dummies Guide to Finding Lost Notebooks.” Could have come in handy today if I could remember where I left it!

Noted!

Tie a string around your finger to remind you.

Get/have more than one notebook and pens in places around your home and in your car. Get/Carry a small notebook and pens with you.

Your notes may not be all in the same place (which could be a problem) Maybe you could go to each notebook spot at the end of each day and rewrite your them in a master notebook.

Just writing something down can help you remember – even if you never look at it again.

Get yourself an ALR leg bag and keep it by your bed at night.

Sometimes I have to put something (like a notebook/pen) in a “safe” place where I’ll find it later. Then, I forget where the “safe” place is! Fortunately, after back-tracking, I found the stuff.

Then you forget why you tied the string around your finger.

I put notes in my phone app before I goshopping. But never remember to look in the app once I’m there.

I have a good memory, I don’t need to write them down. Why I remember when I was Caption America. Then I retired. After all no matter how many times you save the world, it always manages to get back in jeopardy again. Sometimes I just want it to stay saved! So I just retired. It’s somebody else’s problem now.

I have a shopping list on the bathroom counter, seems that is where most of the inspiration surfaces

Still looking for my truck keys…

Ziggy, you don’t have a drawer full of pens? (many of which don’t work)

I’m so tired of hiding things from myself :<

Or to look at the notebook … (sigh)
