Wishlist 8.19.10

For someone who loves birthdays so much, I'm terrible at remembering them.  I desperately need a better organizational tool now that my family has tripled in size, so I've begun looking for birthday calendars.  Thus far, the birthday calendar by Linda & Harriet is my favorite. It's the worst feeling in the world to forget a loved one's birthday, isn't it? How do you keep up with everyone's special day?

  1. I never remember people's birthdays! This is a great idea! =) Since my phone has a calendar I've been putting people's bdays in there so I try to remember them. facebook helps too! =P

  2. I have a big think "Birthday" astrology book, where I scribble in names on each dated page. But, do I remember to keep it out and open and check into to often?... Hardly.

    This option looks delightful.

    Cheers!

  3. NEED. I used to have a wall calendar and I'd write them on there, but I got out of the habit a few years ago.

  5. I hate to admit this, but: Facebook. I'm terrible at writing stuff down (or, transferring it to the next year) so FB is my back up system. Of course, if I went totally electronic instead of clinging to my paper and pens, I wouldn't have to worry about writing in new dates year after year. :)

  6. um, well, my mom usually calls me to remind me of important birthdays...and i'm 30 years old! she swears she'll stop & that it's time for me to figure out a way to remember on my own, but i get a reminder call every time. maybe it's time i grow up and get the birthday calendar - it sounds perfect! xo - julie

  7. Agreed! Just this year I've forgotten three very important birthdays - my mum, my brother, and my best friend :(

  8. um, i don't... at least not the way i want to! i've got a birthday calendar but i forget to look at it. i also put reminders on the cell phone, but this isn't foolproof either since i buy a new phone every second year or so (or the phone breaks down, losing all the data i've stored on it).

    hope this weekend's dog sitting goes well!
