Yep. I finally had the sense to set a biweekly reminder to change my contacts. It's set to pop up on my screen in time for me to wake up and works like a dream.

That's a good one... very important you don't want an infection.

I was never very far off so I wasn't entering infection-prone territory. It was more "shit, did I change them last week or the week before?" Or "I know I changed them the week before last but was it Monday or Friday of that week?"

This way, I wake up every other Monday with a notification on my phone that I need to change them and I don't have to spend any energy worrying about trying to remember.

That's exactly what I do about a thousand little things so that I know what I've done and what I have to do with reminders. Set it and off my mind.
