My mommy brain has trouble remembering even as recent as 5 seconds ago. Even when I think I was actively listening, I can’t recall the simplest things sometimes. Evernote to the rescue!
I create a note with driving directions to any new destination and set up a reminder before the event so that i have the directions ready at that time. This helps when GPS goes out on me. This way I’m not scrambling to get directions right before the event – but rather when I first add it to my calendar.
it’s also a good reminder to add a note about the event or venue so I can use it for future reference, or to add to my journal of where I’ve been.
