Remembering at closing time!

I always seem to remember,

to do what I need to do.

After there is no chance of me,

getting where ever I need to go,

to do what I need to do,

before the place closes.


It happens a lot.


Can anyone relate?

Re: Remembering at closing time!

I do this constantly.

To combat it I've tried to write my to-do lists a little bit more specifically. i.e. I write them in order, put some "rewards" in between the awful stuff, and write down when the store closes so I know if I need to skip something. It doesn't solve the problem, but it helps.

Re: Remembering at closing time!

This happens to me with appointments. By the time I've realized I missed them, its to late to go. This has happened to me many times with the dentist although I hate the dentist so it may be a way of avoiding going to see them.

Re: Remembering at closing time!

Yup, all the time. I seem to have a talent to remember things I could have done just about when I can't do them anymore.
