Someone asked me if I "had all my ducks in a row" and was ready for the surgery and other things com

I told him I don't think my ducks are row ducks. I am having a terrible time keeping track of all of the appointments, meetings and everything else that we have to do straight. How do you do it?

I put them on the calendar on my phone and set reminders. Works like a champ! You might also get a paper calendar to write them on if it helps you solidify in your mind when the appts are by looking at them written in ink.

There is a lot to take in and take care of, but it gets easier!

I have a big old fashion paper calendar with large squares for every date. I write everything on it and keep it on the corner of my kitchen table. Every morning when I get up it's the first thing I do. Check to see where I need to be today. For the most important things I also put stickers on the calendar as an extra reminder.I

One thing that makes me go balistic? When people come to my house and put their stuff down on top of THE calendar.

I had a journal that I got from the Livestrong Foundation. It had calendars and pockets for papers and business cards. I have now a small binder that has plastic sleeves that can hold a magazine. I put all my current medical records, in those. I also can print out a blank calendar or purchase one from Office Depot and put it in the sleeve I have purchased a couple of those pencil bags for pens and pencils and another one for cards and prescriptions. I also keep a general calendar in my purse so I don't overbook. I also keep an address list in the binder also it is a good place to keep a list of questions for the Dr.
