Are you forgetting stuff?

Interesting. Why the 'back of an envelope'?

It may be an old habit. My father always carefully opened and flattened every envelop we got in the mail and used it as paper to figure or doodle on. Why waste a good sheet of paper on something that will be thrown away. He grew up during the depression.

Yes but now in the days of computers and printers we have tons of paper to doodle on.

I have a paper cutter. I cut the paper to fit in my memo holder which is usually full.

Yes, the worse thing someone can do is give me a phone number on a white piece of paper. Haven't seen my uncle in 14 years between the time I took the piece of paper from him while we were standing at his car and the time I walked back into my apartment, then walked in one room to another, I don't recall where the paper went. Only reason I even thought about it was because I called a friend of my aunt who's a neighbor and she wanted the number as she was his childhood friend to and wanted to make sure she got to speak with him before he leaves town.

Don't even suggest looking in the waste basket, I already did that. I'm hoping the number on my caller id is his since it's the only MI number on my phone. Sigh.

Don't even get me started on keys, I have three sets, I always get two more sets made. Keep one set attached to my smaller purse that I carry everywhere, one on the counter where I keep loose change and the other set I keep where I have to play hide and seek most times when I leave if I decide not to leave inside one of my other large purses.

I've tried to have a one spot for everything unfortunately that one spot sometimes get's stuff thrown on top of it when I'm doing a crafting project and if I'm really tired and have to do a mad dash clean for whatever reason, well things manage to get scooped up and I say I'll retrieve it later, never happens then I forget where said needed item is.

Ever find yourself pushing a non-existing button thinking it will ding your sell or tv remote. LOL! Only works if you have a base or other such connection or other phone to call the phone. The tv remotes you mostly just have to spend have the day looking for it.

Me, too, and the other night I came home dog tired from taking my sister to Wal-Mart for groceries and helping her carry everything in and put it away, etc., and I found myself aiming my car remote opening thing at my front door trying to open it. Maybe it's time for that old folks home . . . .
