DEAR HELOISE: When I was touring the Canyonlands of Colorado and Utah, I bought a small 2017 desktop calendar with photos of the various parks. I didn t want to throw it away, so I saved it. The dates ended up matching with the dates for 2023, so I m using it again! I have a couple other special calendars that I m saving for years when the dates match. And I keep a small paintbrush (never used for paint) in my car console. When I go through the car wash, I brush away dust on my dashboard and doors.
