To take lists

 

About a decade ago, a woman I called Mighty Mom, because she was such a creative mother, put a list on the front door for her daughters to check that had everything they needed to take with them to school.

Little did I think that I would need a list to just get out the door today. With the lockdown, too often we get out of the house to realize that we forgot the attestation (the form that says why we are out and when we left) or the mask or the.. or the... or the... If the gendarmes stop people without masks or those who seem to be too far from home, an ID is necessary. If we remember the wallet with the money, we do have the ID.

The last four items depend if Sherlock is with us. If her harness and leash are easy to remember with the dog, the black poo sacs are easy to forget.  

I must ask Mighty Mom sometimes how it worked for her girls. I do know it works for us. We haven't come back for something forgotten since it went up.
