Every year, I buy a moleskine notebook. Every year, I put the important information at the back of it... things like credit card number, special phone numbers, etc. I leave the front several pages blank. When I have to make phone calls, make a decision, just write down information, or anything I might need later, I date the page and start writing. It's been a big help writing out my thoughts and needs before going to see a doctor. I can now feel prepared before walking into the office. On the front several pages, I put an index for the date and what I wrote. This gives me a quick reference guide. I like it that there is the elastic to hold the book together. No more bent pages. I can also clip a pen onto it simply using the same band. This sits by my bed so it's quick and easy to use. This is the size that works for me and every year, I get a different color from the previous year. This year it was the blue color. I couldn't be happier. Great for female or male. This can help keep track of anything that you want
