remind me later

Do these words drive you as crazy as they do me?
As if I don't have enough to think about without having to remind someone else...again!  (They actually should be thankful that I remembered to remind them in the first place!)
I'm sure successful and organized people keep detailed lists.  Imagine how good you would feel if you could cross everything off your list for the day.
Traditional or Unconventional
What kind of list keeper do you want to be?  Do you leave messages on your phone or email?  Maybe a cute notepad.  Chalkboards are handy, but if you are erasing after you're done then you can't keep track of all that you accomplished.  There will be days that you can hurry thru all of your tasks and others that will take days to complete.  On some days you might even get some freebies - something you hadn't planned on doing but needed to be done anyway.  ( I jot these down on my list and cross them off also..I like feeling a sense of accomplishment!)
Challenge yourself to cross off as much as possible in a day.  But, don't let the day get too intense that you forget to add in "me" time.
Tell us how many lists you keep. 
Are they exclusively yours or can any one work on your chores? Do you do it by the day, week or whatever?  Are there separate lists for each store you need to shop at?  Do you number the list by importance of the task?
If you are a business owner in the Phoenix area, #1 on your list should be to hire R & S Commercial Cleaning Service!  Just think of all the of all the cleaning tasks that you can knock off your list!
