Tomorrow I must keep in mind I have two people coming here to each do their own thing - as in yard and pool. I tend to make mental notes, which is probably not as good as real notes.
All in good time, I guess.
When I worked in IT, my boss used post it notes and it worked great. He would write each task on a note and put them next to each other, the important tasks on his computer monitor so he would see them when he would start to browse the web. As each task was completed he simply would remove the post it note and throw it away. He felt really good when all of the notes were gone at the end of his day. I use this technique to this day.
