Are all of your important phone numbers saved in your cell phone memory? What happens if something happens to your phone and you loose all those numbers? Instant stress and frustration.

Make sure you have a copy of all those important phone numbers written down and filed away and be sure to keep the list updated - after your master list is completed it is easy and quick to keep it updated. Another thing I’ve done in our house that my husband and I both use often is I’ve written down all of our family’s phone numbers, the neighbors, and anyone else who we call often and posted it on our refrigerator. I used a pretty piece of scrapbooking paper and my neatest handwriting - but you could type it if you wanted to. We still use our landline so if we are home we make local calls from the house and it is nice to simply walk over to the refrigerator, find the number you want and dial it rather than having to look phone numbers up all the time.

There’s another list on our refrigerator too - that one has all the birthdays and anniversaries we need to remember on it. That way when Aunt so and so has a birthday and I remember that it is in April but can’t remember the day I can find it and write it on the regular calendar so that I’ll call to say “Happy Birthday” on the right day!
