How long is your list of "dates to remember"?

Apart from the usual legal holidays, business meeting schedules, presentation/ demonstration schedules, or interview appointments, we still have some important dates we tend to always remember. And some people even scribble them down on their organizers. As far as I know, the most usual dates people take note are: 1. Mother's birthday 2. Father's birthday 3. sibling's birthday 4. significant other's birthday 5. parent's wedding anniversary 6. his and his wife's wedding anniversary 7. children's birthday 8. death anniversaries of some important people 9. ... and what else can you add??? so, if you were to make this list a little longer, what other important dates to remember can add on? or this list is exactly true to your case? or is there anything on this list that you think isn't important at all? do share your thoughts :P

You named all the usual ones, but I can add a few more since I'm a lot older than you are. How about birthdays of grandchildren, cousins, aunts, uncles, etc.? Then there's the birthdays of people you work with or your close friends. Oh, and don't forget your online friends either. I feel that everything on your list is important.

Tsk tsk. I am bad with remembering important dates. I even cant remember some of my family's birthdays. That's one of my mobile phone's function. To remind me of important events, dates, meetings and etc.

Mostly I remember them or write on the calendar. My husband often how I remember so many things.I really don't now how long the list is but I am sure it's long.

I remember the dates on your list and also in-laws birthdays and anniversaries, grandparents' birthdays, nieces and nephews birthdays, birthdays of friends and their children... I'm pretty good at remembering dates so I don't write things like that down. I just have to write down the minor things that are only going to happen once like a movie on TV, or a sale date at a store.

You did a very good job of covering all the important dates to remember. The only thing I have to make sure of is to write down the dates of my doctors appointments. Lately I've had to spend time at the hospital and also see doctors at the clinic and it would be easy to forget the time if I didn't write it down. Getting old I guess.
