I feel for you. When my depression is in high gear, and add to that the chronic back pain, well, it's been difficult with memory. I got boiled eggs off the stove the other night, had run cold water over them in the pan to let them cool, and run downstairs to throw clothes in the dryer.

When I came upstairs, the burner was still on high on the stove. Sigh.

I've got brightly colored big sticky notes, and I know what you mean about them becoming a part of the environment.

What I've been doing is swapping one bright color for another each week on each reminder, and sticking it in a slightly different spot (a little higher or lower) so it still gets my attention.

Might be worth a try?
