I made a list 23 months ago

that I have on my fridge now so I can easily check it every day



I am very bad at this :{ 2 years ago

I have not sent cards for ages, I haven’t even rang my friend or my sister for their birthdays which was over a week ago now :(



I caught up all the cards I was behind 2 years ago

and sent some of the ones for this month. On the last day of the month I will get next months ready so all I have to do is post them.



I've gotten behind again :( 2 years ago

so I bought a pack of 20 blank cards, will write belated one to those I’ve missed and start fresh with those coming up.



Got a call 2 years ago

from my Grandmother today who was calling to let me know she recieved her birthday card it was 3 days early whoo hoo!:0)



Thanks to a link found on 43things 2 years ago

I have found a way that works for me. One of the first emails I got from 12minutes to go was to organise the cards I needed for the month at the end of the previous month. I now have sent off 4 birthday cards and have 2 more ready to send. At the end of this month I will do this again for next month. I now feel like I can do this without getting overwhelmed. Especially if I put reminders on do not forget dates!



Remembered to send Ecard 3 years ago

Thanks to a link someone posted I remembered to send my cousin an ecard and ring my Mum ontheir birthdays. You can set up reminders to be sent to you in advance of the birthday or other events too. it’s great I don’t have to remember them all any more! Here is the link if anyone is interested
