Simple systems

My Palm based system has become so simple that it hardly rates a blog any more. I use the built in datebook and the built in todo list for most stuff. Projects still go in memos and I move items into the other two apps as needed. I'm using pedit but really could do this using the built in app. The only other thing I'm really using is manana (and I can't get the keyboard to give me the ~ over the n right now.) I'm using that because I can switch over in jpilot to view that database in the regular todo tab. Same thing with pedit's p32db. I've experimented a bit with big text files and dumping the results into jpilot but I really don't think I need it. It's likely that I'll give up on MobileNote at some point. Since I started using jpilot, I really don't need a lot more.

I've also been getting more out of Accounts and Loans. One of the reasons I really like that program is that it dumps info into memos, so you don't need a separate conduit. I can dump the entire registry into a memo as a comma delimited file. Now that I finally have a spreadsheet program, in Open Office, I just do my finances there. It gives me a way to check ANL and make sure I haven't put in a duplicate. Had some problems this month as it showed that I didn't have much left in the account. But the bank showed plenty. Finally figured out that I'd forgotten to enter the deposit for Jeffrey's paycheck. Went ahead and paid a few more bills. I like doing my finances in my Palm more than anything else. I can tell exactly where I stand.
