This tip is one of my favorites, and as I thought of it today while grocery shopping I realized it was a good tip to share.
I like to get healthy items in the bulk foods section, but when you do that you don’t get the cooking instructions like you would on a box.
So, whip out your camera on your phone and take a picture of the instructions!
This tip goes as well for things like:
Library Hours:
School Reminders:
Of course, I still have to put events on my calendar later, but if I don’t have time right as I was gathering the kids and stuff, then I can take the photo and do it later.
I have even used them to take a photo of the kids’ class list to remember all the kids’ names, school supplies lists, or basically any other piece of paper that I don’t want to lug around. When I need it, I can scroll through my photos.
Other items: movie listings, MAPS, store flyers… anything that you’d need to remember or for a way to save paper.
I’d love to hear your ideas for ways you use your camera!
The one I’ve been doing for years is a variation on an old Navy wife necessity: the inventory. I go into a room and do a multi-pic panorama of a room. Then I add open closets, open drawers, etc. I may not have it all, but if something happens, I’ll be close! Hugs, Cecily
