Notebooks? Notebooks?? I could open up my own stationary shop and stock it with notebooks that were barely used, slightly used, cover opened once and that was only to see if the pages were lined or blank!
😳
Then I had the bright idea of using my blackberry (discarded by my daughter in favour of the iphone). Did you know that you can record memos or even ‘to do’ lists on the BB? The perfect solution for one of ‘us’, right?
Not if you leave the silly thing behind in your daughter’s car. When I realized my BB was missing, I didn’t dare call her about it. She dragged me along on a shopping expedition to help her choose carpeting for her house and dropped me off later, but not before declaring she was going to bed early since she had to leave at 4 am for the airport.
Since I’m a night owl, it was about 1 am when I realized that my BB was missing. And why did I realize it was missing at that time of the night?
😳 Yes, I had been looking at BB apps for getting myself better organized!! Surely, I thought, there must be an app out there that organizes people like us so that our lives run like clockwork (maybe an app to even vacuum carpets and wash windows, too!).
Well, maybe there are apps like that out there but they’d not do me a lick of good if I lealve my BB in my daughter’s car and she’s headed off to work at the airport and won’t be back for 5 days. I thought of driving up to her home (another town) and trying to locate her spare set of keys and then trying to illegally sneaking into the employee parking lot at the airport.
I gave up on that idea since I know they have security cameras everywhere watching for car thieves/break=ins. I could see the headlines- Old Woman Found Breaking into Employee Parking Garage- Spotted on security cameras as she wandered through 8 levels claiming to be looking for her BB in a gray car. My non-ADD daughter would have me committed but only if she didn’t kill me first.
So notebooks don’t work for me and the BB doesn’t either. 😆
