A very good list - I especially find that I need to make sure that I follow the last one - as does my DH. Some of that is age but some is just not being able to do what we used to do.
Think I will take this and keep it for regular reading - might post it up in another group as well.
Thank you for posting this one Lost. Appreciate it.
Thanks for reminding me!
