There's this guy at my job that has a great voice; I could totally steal his expressions and make him famous! But when I sit down to write can I think of any of them? Every time I have a meeting with him do I remember to take notes? <br /><br />No. Gah. <br /><br />But i like your idea of visual documentation. <br /><br />Maybe I just need to sneak a recorder into my work meetings ;) Margo Berendsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476308235642890474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1887055429481495116.post-55068442976384010932013-08-06T10:12:57.494-07:002013-08-06T10:12:57.494-07:00Love the pictures, Leslie.

For best results, I try to get the notes into my computer within a day or two where I can expand on them.

This was before the cameras of today so I can't put them on line, but I have oodles of pictures. I love to capture every memory in a picture until I get a chance alone to write each detail down.BURIED IN BOOKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18205451716054533728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1887055429481495116.post-22859458846353175212013-07-25T15:54:26.439-07:002013-07-25T15:54:26.439-07:00I usually take 50 jillion photos of a few things a...I usually take 50 jillion photos of a few things and miss all the rest.Carol Kilgorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03745686632918324803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1887055429481495116.post-38063148896390358102013-07-25T13:25:36.755-07:002013-07-25T13:25:36.755-07:00I'm not much for note or picture taking (sadly...I'm not much for note or picture taking (sadly).
