Do you have a problem in keeping up with all those appointments at the drs,dentists,hospitals,schools,vets etc.Even with putting the appointments in a diary i find it hard to keep track with who has got to be where and when.

I wright all my appointments down on a calendar that i have hanging on the kitchen wall that way when i get up every morning i check it before i start planning my day. Now a days it is a lot less empty, compared to when all my kids were growing up. but i got into the habit of marking every thing on the calendar years ago. Then i would plan my day on paper with my morning coffee, time , by time, that way i would be able to get everybody to where they had to be, or when they needed picked up. Now if i lost my paper that i had everything wrote down on....then i would be in trouble.

I have no husband or children, yet still I have a hard time keeping track of my appointments. I find myself negotiating with doctors. "No, I can't do Thursday at 3pm, how is Tuesday at 10am? Now if you'll squeeze me in then, I'll try to make an extra appointment in three months ahead of time..." It's crazy. I've got them all marked on my calendar in the kitchen. Every day I get up and double check to make sure I won't be missing anything that day.

I make it as easy on myself as possible. Keep a calendar above the computer monitor and schedule appointments as necessary. In doing so, I also put the phone number of the dentist, etc. next to the time just in case I have to cancel. I make the calendar in red pen for babysitting our grandbaby and the time. This way it stands out. Can't afford to be late babysitting since our daughter and her husband are both firefighters/paramedics. They must get to work on time.

hehe, yes I do, not only I have to keep my own appointments in head, but also my sons. And it so happen, that I did forgot one of my sons appointment for only two weeks ago...I was really ashamed of that when I called to rescheduel this appointment. Now, my son is 18 and should be able to keep them him self, however, he is suffering from ADHD and therefore I have to...and the strange thing is, I also had forgotten to put it in my agenda...in my cell phone...who helps me remind all my appointments.

Hey, Yes I also have trouble trying to keep up with all those appointments, I find it honestly quite hard to actually keep up. Some of the times I completely miss the appointments, I am just a little too stressed. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

I had a lot of appointments this month and it has been so hard on me to get to them. For me I had two within 2 days and I had to pay other people to take me. I had to pay 10$ to one and than 12$ to another. It took me over 22$ to get to 2 appointments. I guess I had to do what I had to do. I am not into going to the doctors that much. I need to have a female exam myself but have been putting it off for a few months. Take care and happy mylotting to you.
