You know that picture that comes up on your phone when someone calls you? There is SO much more that you can do with that!
While I have lots of places to store things on my phone – Reminders, Notes, Photos – there is only one place I count on to search and find things quickly, and that’s my Contacts. Each Contact has one photo, and I have learned to make that work for me.
- I took a photo of my AAA card and I always have it with me, under AAA.
- I took a photo of my eyeglass prescription, and I always have it with me, under the name of my eye doctor.
- I took a photo of all of my sewing thread, stored it under the only place I go for thread, and I never again have to wonder what colors I have at home – or buy another duplicate.
Note that for all these, there is one more step: I need to start to edit the photo if I need to see ALL the edges outside of the circle – in this case, all the thread. It’s worth it.
What do you store in your Contacts? What could you store?
Well, in case I have nothing to do or, conversely, have tons of stuff I don’t WANT to do, now I know where I’ll turn my attention and energy! Great idea, Jane!
Can u call me please?
