I don't have a pill organizer ...but I do now take 9 supplement tablets every weekday morning (7 different supplements). I tip them out and shove them in my left pocket while I make tea, then when I get to work I take them with said tea while I process the morning price changes and sales etc. (The buttered toast goes in the right pocket) I put the tablets in a sample cup (deli sample not pee sample) when I get to work.

I do keep all 7 bottles of pills in a plastic shoebox on top of the bread bin. Does that count as an organizer?

(How I know I'm really old ... all the supplements are fucked-up-joints related (the bodily kind, no spiky leaves). Except the potassium for night cramps -which really fucking works, people)

I do sleep better on clean sheets, but I don't get excited because that means I have to change the bed and wash sheets.

Ah. The last one. A toughie. I have learned to be OK with people being wrong by following the advice I made up and gave to Thor (who has problems with people being wrong)....

It's OK for people to be wrong and not know it, as long as their being wrong isn't putting anyone in immediate physical danger.
