I worked for Franklin Covey when I lived down in Provo several years ago. It was a requirement for all employees to own a Franklin planner, so I got one. I ended up only using the "Notes" section of the planner and filled it up with all sorts of stuff that I felt worthy of writing down for future reference. I'm always writing stuff down that I feel is important but end up just filing the notes away and never looking at them again. I came across my old planner recently and found the following jotted down on a few of the pages in the Notes section; it has to have been over 4 years since I've looked through this thing:
QUOTES
"Experience is a hard teacher, because she gives the test first, the lesson afterwards." - Vernon Sanders Law
"No matter how far you have gone on the wrong road, turn back." - Turkish Proverb
"Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon." - ?
"Procrastination--Hard work often pays off after time, but laziness always pays off now." - ?
"Sometimes, to get ready for the next great thing in your life, you have to say goodbye to the first great thing." - ?

TOP 10 SIGNS YOU'RE TOO OLD TO BE TRICK-OR-TREATING
from David Letterman
10. You get a candy apple and mutter, "Oh yeah, my dentures will love this."
9. You're dressed as a surgeon; earlier in the day you actually performed surgery.
8. Not many "Aren't you cutes" but plenty of "I'm calling the cops."
7. Every three houses you need a smoke break.
6. Chaos ensues when you confuse an M&M with your heart medication.
5. You're dressed as America's favorite movie star, Tyrone Power.
4. At the end of the night, you don't have many treats, but you got a few dates with divorcees.
3. Frequently forgo the candy and ask to use the bathroom.
2. Your "trick" involves driving a rascal scooter across the lawn.

Some of those quites are pretty deep. Is that mom's 7 layer dip recipe? That is certainly worthy of writing down for future reference. It cracks me up you wrote the complete top ten list down- it was pretty funny though. Did you ever improve on your Rex Lee placement?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure Mom gave me that recipe. And as for the Rex Lee Run, I haven't run in it since 2004. But it's always fun and tons of people come out for it. I want to run it next year.
Girl. Next year run the 10K with me.
ACTUALLY...
how about a half-marathon in August...you still have plen-ty of time to train!
totally serious. 13 miles.
(ps. I love running across old stuff like that...I think I've lost every planner I've ever owned...)
