I taught my kids how to use the calendar function on their phones to remind themselves of days when they need to bring gym clothes or stay after school for orchestra. You can set up a recurring meeting type event to poke you a few times a week ( ... )

The Partner asked me to ask my boss to clean up his mess... when my dropped hints and comment that the Partner had mentioned something didn't create a positive response with my boss I left a note for the Partner, which my boss swiped, and then the boss was pissed - probably at both me and the Partner... hopefully that makes sense...

I've thought about using my phone for more stuff like that.. but it's a through pain-in-my-ass when it comes to creating calendar stuff... I've been pining after an iPhone so I can link it to my computer and have the calendar keep me on track, but so far that hasn't happened... and as paper calendars and I work great when: I can keep them in my back pocket (though I've been wearing skirts 3-5 times a week recently and they don't have pockets), remember to look at them, and don't lose them... I'm really bad about losing the paper planners...

You were asking about planning/scheduling systems not so long ago, weren't you?

What was the verdict then?

we were trying to get an iPhone but haven't been able to get my mom's bundle worked out... partially because she works nights and partially because they won't just let me do it (and she can't figure out what exactly she wants)

true.. I don't highly value the three day a week job - but it's necessary to pay the bills and I can't get something I like until I have another degree... so I have to have something that will pay the bills for another two+ years... it's just difficult forcing myself to send out anymore applications as I've been applying for jobs since last March... I've probably already sent out over 200 applications... at this point it honestly IS forcing myself because while I don't trust my current 3 day position to last, I'm sooo freakin' sick of job apps!!

I would happily do so -- esp if you might do the same back. :)

On friday mornings, there is a small group who meet at Black DOG (fair trade coffeehouse) to do JUST that. ra ra! Go self!
