I often enough forget things my best friend tells me, luckily she's very understanding and doesn't take it personally, my brother, though, can get frustrated with me.

I put a list (post-it) on my front door with a list of everything important I have to do before leaving for the day (i.e. taking meds, etc.) and everything I need to bring to work (including keys, etc.). I don't know if that would help you. I also have a basket next to my door with important things in it.

Yesterday, I had to work in a new clinic and I forgot how to spell the name of the street, so of course my gps couldn't find it. It didn't occur to me that I had misspelled it, had to call the office to get directions (I have no sense of direction so this scared me). I felt like such an utter idiot when I found out I had spelled it wrong.

I make mistakes all the time due to memory issues and it's very embarrassing. Luckily I haven't had financial issues so far except forgetting to pay bills on time. I try and remind myself that I'm doing the best I can and that's all I can expect of myself (except for all of the reminders I put everywhere).

Hugs to you!
