No.

On average, how many checks do you write in a month?

Zero.

If you have a written to-do list, where do you keep it?

I have magnetic dry erase board on my fridge where I write what to buy or errands to do. Then before I leave the house I take a picture of it. I also have a "staple" list on my phone

When reading a magazine or book, do you ever write notes in the page margins or circle or underline any of the content of what you're reading?


Did that on my school books. Sometimes I do that on my continuing education materials.

When did you last use a highlighter?

It has been a while. They might be all dry by now...

No. Everyone knew their clothes and stuff.

TODAY'S QUESTIONS

Have you ever submitted a story or article for publication in a periodical? If so, was it published?
No, I've never done that for pay, but when I worked in P.R. for a TV station, I wrote a piece about the station's history that was published in the Sunday newspaper.
Have you ever kept a diary or journal?
Yes. I started keeping a diary when I was 12. Most of my early diaries are lost except for a few months during my teenage years. I have transcribed that and all my handwritten diaries (1977-2004) into a Word document. That was a huge project.
On average, how many checks do you write in a month?
I'd say one or two at most. The rest of the bills are paid online.
If you have a written to-do list, where do you keep it?
I just have a grocery list that is on a notepad in a magnetic holder on the side of the fridge. There's a To-Do list on my iPhone, but I almost never use it.
When reading a magazine or book, do you ever write notes in the page margins or circle or underline any of the content of what you're reading?
No, I don't like to do that, especially not with books.
When did you last use a highlighter?
Last year sometime. I don't really remember.
When you moved from one residence to another in the past, did you label boxes designating which room each should be placed in?
Yes, I'm pretty organized that way.
During your childhood did you - or anyone on your behalf - ever write your name in some of your articles of clothing?
In high school we had to mark our gym clothes and gym shoes.
Did you ever write and pass a note to a classmate in school?
Yes, my boyfriend sat right in front of me in English class. He asked me out on my first date that way. As an adult I took electronics classes to prepare for the FCC First Class license test, and one of my classmates was a real flirt. He liked to write me funny notes to crack me up during class. I still have one of them.
Do you write a shopping list before you head for the supermarket? If so, do you cross items off the list as you add the items to your shopping cart or basket?
Yes, I usually have a list. Sometimes I forget to bring it or lose it in the store. I usually don't bother crossing items off.
Have you ever written a love note to a sweetheart?
Yes, when Mr. Bay and I were first dating. We were co-workers and wanted to keep it secret, so we left notes in each other's inboxes.

Thanks, Pammy!

TODAY'S QUESTIONS

Have you ever submitted a story or article for publication in a periodical? - Nope.

Have you ever kept a diary or journal? - Briefly as a teen.

On average, how many checks do you write in a month? - Zero.

If you have a written to-do list, where do you keep it? - Just monthly bill paying. It's in my checkbook even though I do not write checks anymore. It just seems an appropriate place to keep. It's still my favorite way to track anything to do with finances.

When reading a magazine or book, do you ever write notes in the page margins or circle or underline any of the content of what you're reading? - Nope.

When did you last use a highlighter? - Maybe about a year ago.

When you moved from one residence to another in the past, did you label boxes designating which room each should be placed in? - Long ago, yes. They are just labeled now.

During your childhood did you - or anyone on your behalf - ever write your name in some of your articles of clothing? - No memory of that.

Did you ever write and pass a note to a classmate in school? - Probably a few times but definitely not that often.

Do you write a shopping list before you head for the supermarket? If so, do you cross items off the list as you add the items to your shopping cart or basket? - I'm stubborn and won't write a list because I've always remembered. I'm not sure I ever made a shopping list. But these days I'm finding I may forget an item or two. I still do not feel it's necessary to start doing that at this time.

Have you ever written a love note to a sweetheart? - Long ago, sigh...

That's all the writing I intend to do tonight! Have a happy Tuesday, everyone, and don't forget to commit an act of kindness before it's over. - Thanks, Pam!
