With little stuff, like turning off the coffee maker, the iron or closing the garage door. I say it out loud when I do it. "I just turned off the iron." You'll be surprised how quickly you remember completing the task (particularly later in the day, when your little voice is saying you burnt the house down.) Great site. I'll be back! » POSTED IN:
