This was my desk this morning before students arrived for class.

Notes and reminders were abundant. What did I even do before I could jot a note to remember and stick it somewhere? Did I just forget everything? If I did forget, was I in a bliss of oblivion of the things I forgot to do?
Sometimes, I think reminders might be causing me stress. All the reminders on my phone/watch, buzz-do this, buzz-do this, buzz-do that. Then I walk into my classroom to be met with all the reminders of things I was afraid I might forget yesterday, and so that I won't, I've written in a semi-permanent place until completion.
I will say that crushing a sticky note in my hand after doing whatever it was is more satisfying than smacking my hand on my watch to get a reminder out of my face.

I love that pic -- my desk often looks the same! I've gotten out of control with the sticky notes lately, and I think I need to return to my old ways of a long list I just added to and crossed off as I went along. Much less chaotic, and still got the job done! But also less colorful hmmm...
ReplyDeleteYep! I depend on sticky notes and my students love them too. What did they do before sticky notes?
