Something that works for me, I use the sticky note on my computer and when a request comes I immediately post it on the sticky note. I also keep a spreadsheet with the screen name, mailing name, address , city, state, zip the theme and colors and patterns if they have a specific one.
That way I can use amail merege and print out my labels.
When the request is packaged and mailed I delete it from the sticky note. It pops up everymorning and reminds me what I have to work on.

I like that idea! But I hate to write, I would rather type! So I have my in an excel spreadsheet. Plus doing it this way I can cheat with cut/copy/paste. It's saved on my desktop so I dont have to search for it. I only misplace the printed copy! LOL I need a bullentin board I like that idea!

Beautiful blocks today from Poker Diva, another extra August swap. I gushed and went on and on and thanked her in a PM - didn't want to embarrass her with a display of over the top posting. But they are truly wonderful, Florence.
