I always have a generic calendar "no years or days" and post all important dates on it. This is much better than electronic because of systems crashing. I don't forget the important birthdays and anniverseries. I also put a reminder in the computer but paper is the best way for me. Sorry to hear that you missed a few birthdays. Best of luck in the future.

I just do it the old fashioned way and write all my important birthdays, anniversaries and other important dates on my calendar which never fails.

I have all birthdays and aniversaries written down in a book. In addition we have a birthday alarm service - we will get an email one week before a birthday, then one the day before. I just love that! I always remember birthdays!

Yep, I do. Today is my sister's birthday and she is on the other side of the world and it was my god daughter's birthday earlier in the month and I managed to remember them both. They're on the other side of the world, so if I forget there's no one around to remind me. I just make sure I get them all on the calender or otherwise I don't have a hope of remembering.
