This happens to me a lot but I’m particularly pissed off right now because I keep remembering something I need to add to a grocery list and then promptly forgetting it before I get the chance to write it down. Whatever the stupid item is, I know I’ve suddenly remembered it multiple times in the past two weeks because I can remember my “oh my god why do I keep forgetting this - write it down write it down” panic but by the time I get to a pen or get my phone for the notes app SOMETHING distracts my brain and POOF! It’s gone.

Please tell me I’m not the only one tormented like this.

Edit: Loving all the app tips and I hope they help people, but if I could make it to my phone and write it down then I wouldn’t be in the situation, LOL My friend pointed out this happens to her because of notifications on her Screen when she picks up her phone, and I think that’s what happens to me.

I am looking into how I can use my google home to verbally add it to a list when I remember so that I can’t get distracted trying to locate a pen or my phone.

Another note, I have a magnetic list but my kiddo stole the magnetic pen that went next to it and that is yet another thing I keep meaning to replace!
