Guess you have them documented, either by memory or by receipt... ;)

I print out* ledger sheets, as needed, to record debits and credits with
my debit card, deposits, etc.
A simple text file with date, cheque number (which are few), to whom and
how much and (then) current balance. Or deposited and how much. Just like
the old record file that came with cheques.
When I tallied up how much I spent on my trip it was simple to just find
the place and the amount spent.
Plus I have most of the receipts for whatever. (I did lose some when I
had to switch out cars, but had those recorded elsewhere).
(*I hate to waste anything, and will reuse the back of junk mail for
these. Or the back of most any sheet of paper that is no longer any good. Do the same thing with my yearly calendars I print out in December. I will save coloured paper for this wheneve

None of those, pamphlets, folders, etc are in any order. That's
snowy winter day project. :)

And you don't have all that many snowy winter days in W VA...? ;) But
when you do go thru them all, you'll have fun remembering your trek.. :)

Another thing I need to do is put my photo's in order.
I took over 1000, each in a folder for that location. Thus a folder
marked Day XX Where I was.
Some of the photos are named some are not. And the majority of that
day's photo's are not in order. They will skip around from this one location to
another (in the same location) and back again due to the photos being
numbered by the phone.
Also need to clean out the bad ones, dupes, etc.
Sometimes I would take multiple photos of some place, some better than
others of the same view, and need to weed out the bad ones. A lot of these
bad ones are just photobombed. I have more photos of the backs of peoples heads...

I use the free check register my credit union gives me to document all
the activity from the checking account... :)

That worked out ok, then.... :)

Whenever? ;) I get so many calendars in the mail there's no need for
me to print any out.... I give most of them away....

That sounds like quite the project.... At least you have some sort of organization to it... :)

Yup, indeed a project... ;)

Nancy,

Whenever? ;) I get so many calendars in the mail there's no need for
me to print any out.... I give most of them away....

My late Mom used to get a whole slew of them, and she is still getting
mail. I just trash it, because since she died August 9, she has no use
for it. Even if you send them notice that someone is deceased, it's like
it never gets read.

When my mother passed, I made phone calls to some of the organizations
she had supported... those were appreciated, and their mailings
stopped...

I've sent out letters, but it's as if they don't even read them.

I'll bet. :P

It might be more successful if you called them... as long as they answer
the phone... I had a couple of places that I never could get through to
them, but I figured that a letter would probably just be lost in some
pile somewhere...
