I have got some Ironing, to do, which I hate.... but never mind.

I got, the Hangers, from the Wardrobe, put the Ironing Board up, removed the Washing from the Machine..... What had I forgot? Yup, THE IRON!

As for remembering the list, I put it in my shoe the night before I need it. This might seem odd to those who have a dozen pairs of regularly worn shoes...but I don't, so it works!

The other day I got dressed for work. My trousers felt tight and I told myself I must go on a diet. When I got back home I went to get changed, I took off my trousers and I had on a pair of trousers under that. I took those off and had another pair of trousers under that! I must have got dressed three times...?
