tip of the week (12/21/2008)

december 21 -- december 27, 2008
this weeks "tip of the week" was sent from Lynda from Ottumwa, IA

Lynda writes: " I have trouble remembering things like giving the dogs their monthly heartworm medicine, an 8:00 a.m. Monday morning appointment, or making an appointment to get the oil changed in my car.

Cell phone to the rescue! It's always with me and I can use it to schedule repeating events as well as one-time appointments. I either schedule the appointment for earlier than the actual time or set an early reminder.

I can't tell you the number of times this has saved me from going in the wrong direction because I forgot I scheduled an appointment which is in the opposite direction I would normally be going.

It also turns out to be the best way to keep on track for monthly tasks like the dog's medicine or my own health checks."
