Writing down reminders

I went to the bakery yesterday to order a cake for my nephew’s birthday. The shop keeper was only interested in getting the advance paid to his account, also he had a lot of buyers crowding around. After making the payment, he lifted his thumbs to show he received it and continued with his work. He did not bother asking what cake I wanted and other details. So, I waited and insisted he wrote it down and I really didn’t want to take a risk again, as another baker had messed up the order earlier. So maintaining a book/app with reminders can help quite a bit in getting more organized and will free you from anxiety.
