That Said, Why does he not see notes I write on the Impulse Buy?
I stopped writing on it and will now use it for creating artistic views of it for your viewing.

Hmmm, I'm wondering WHAT you are going to do with it. I have them in a couple sizes. One is exactly the size of the side of the microwave, so I put it there. You can't even tell it is there. I also have a small list size one on the fridge.

our not pads on the fridge are still in mint condition... I prefer the verbal way, so the whole hood knows that we need noodles LOL

I have various magnetic notepads attached to my fridge... do I use them?... and even if I did, I'd still forget to read them. Sigh. YAM xx

Ours looks like F scavenged it from an office clear-out (half the size of a door). We had an even bigger one that she fortunately decided to use for an interior wall liner in the allotment shed - drawing garden layout plans and stuff like that. The one we still have is in constant use - mainly because I think she likes wiping stuff off it. xxx mr T (I pay attention to notes that mention chicken, or pork....)

I think it's a good buy. I'm always making lists especially for food shopping and I wouldn't be without my two list pads, one that hangs like a calender and the other magnetic placed on the side of the fridge.

I can't remember the last time I had one of those around here but I know it's been a long time. I probably stopped using it for the very same reason, no one ever saw the notes.

Hello,
The magnetic notepad is cool, a great idea.
You can leave love notes to Bob, too bad beau can't read.

We write notes on the wall calendar and a separate list for the food shop.
Take care, enjoy your day!

Martha said...

Put it on the bottom so Beau can read it! :D

Great shadow shots. I love how you see beauty everywhere!

I make monthly calendars on the computer and post on our fridge door ... but do you think 'he who' ever reads them? Must be a man thing.

Yes, notes placed in obvious places never seem to get read...Hubby is notorious for "missing" them.
Since I'm not super organized I write To Do Lists on a notepad right next to my laptop.
I definitely check this all the time for reminders.
Pure pleasure in crossing things off the list.

Great artistic pictures at least. 😀

I honestly say I want nothing on my fridge doors!! Easier to keep clean. PS...love your "new" home inprevious post!!

Loved this! Only in our house it’s me who is oblivious to changes he makes. He finally tells me he has added, subtracted or otherwise changed something. Then I spend some time trying to discover it. We are weird but entertaining, at least to each other!

As a former teacher, I love whiteboards! They are so useful. But yes, WHY don't people READ what is written on them? "Where is the assignment?" Me: "On the whiteboard. Look at the whiteboard before asking me about anything in this classroom!" "What page number does the review start on?" Me: "Look on the whiteboard!" And now, "What do we need from the store?" ME: "LOOK ON THE WHITEBOARD FER THE LOVE OF PETE!!!"

I only write notes to myself! No one else ever reads what I write. Occasionally if Rebekah or Bick answer their phones I call from the store to say give me my groceery list. HaHa !I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Man have some funny problems like not reading notes, like not observing changes, like not being able to see the butter in the fridge.

DeniseinVA said...

I like that and man is man ;)

We used to have one of these on our fridge at the Va house, but I was the only one who ever posted on it. The same is true for a paper calendar which I keep on a bulletin board near the doorway. My husband only uses the calendar on his phone as do so many others. Not me, I like writing on paper. Good luck with your impulse buy, Sandra.

I like it! Great to make a grocery list on. My refrigerator is not magnetic. Bugs me because I have a huge collection of magnets from our other house that I can't put anywhere. At one point I wanted Mark to make something at work for the laundry room out of metal but he never did.
