"Texting" to remember!

 Well, while searching the internet while working from my new, warm, and cozy Owensboro, Kentucky home, I came across another interesting and useful site that is FREE.

I will give you a little hint.  Sometimes when you get older, you seem to forget about things. Some of the things you forget about are big, and some of the things are small.

Sure, I know you are thinking, "don't sweat the small stuff ," but have you ever just totally forgotten about something?  I mean it just slipped your mind? It's a horrible feeling, isn't it?

Well, thankfully I only have forgotten about things that weren't really that important and I never gotten in to a big mess or an embarrassment over it, YET.  But, I AM getting older, so it is bound to happen.  I know eventually I will probably get into trouble over forgetting something huge. But, hopefully it will never, ever happen while selling real estate.

 Well, luckily, I have found something to help us all remember that is easy, and it's free..and it involves simply texting.  Go to  http://www.ohdontforget.com/  You can set it up for free and send yourself or anyone you want, text messages to remind you or anyone of something important.  So, Don't forget ....visit http://www.ohdontforget.com/

The best thing is that you could send a text message to yourself and a client at the same time about remembering a scheduled appointment and then neither one of you will "forget." OH! And did I forget to tell you?  It's free!   Have Fun and Happy Selling!

Deanna, I am totally new at this, did I follow all the rules?

Also, you like the picture of the elephant? I know I was supposed to give credit to where I got the photo from, how are you supposed to do that?

Thanks for sharing this, awesome, I am going to check it out right now.  I am coming to realize that the more I think I am in control, the more I am not.

Better than waking in the middle of the night and then remembering what you did not do.

Jackie, if you should wake up in the middle of the night, you could go ahead and get the text message typed up and not have it delivered until it needs to be.   The beauty is that you don't have to send the text right away, you can schedule it to go out at a later date.  Vickie

Vicki,

Great post! You did a good job with the picture also. I tried sending me a text like you suggested and should get it any second now. I definitely will use this "if I can remember".

I'll have to bookmark ad come back to this when I have time to review more - but it sounds like JOTT.COM which allows you to call in and 'jott' yourself a message as well as setup reminders that can send a text to you as well.  Pretty cool!!
