   Hi Jacqueline,
   Thank you for all you do……couple of things I do: If the appointment/event is somewhere I have not been, then I get the directions, print them out and put them with my agenda. I also include the phone number just in case I do have to call from the road. I will also set the destination up with Siri on my iPhone and she will talk me through the ride so I don’t have to look at the paper directions. I also prep the night before and have in the car anything that I may need for the event/appointment. If there is anything last minute that cannot go in the car overnight and is not in my direct line of sight out the door, I use a post it note on the door to remind myself.

   One other thing I’ve learned to do – in my calendar (you call it “agenda”) I put an appointment for the time I should leave and the time I should start getting ready to leave! Example: appointment downtown at 10:00 a.m.; allow 15 minutes to stop whatever I’m doing and find my coat do get-out-the-door things; half an hour for travel and 15 minutes for parking. That means I’ll put in my calendar 9:00 “get ready to leave” and 9:15 “out the door for appt.”
