The trick that I’ve used also works for OCD: Say it to yourself. “The door is locked.”
Works pretty well.
Am I remembering yesterdays door locking or today?
Speaking it out loud is a great way to remember many things.
“Keys, wallet, phone” as you get ready.
“Door’s locked” as you leave.
“Oven’s off”
Etc
The door is locked.
…just you and me. can I take you to a restaurant that’s got glass tables? you can watch yourself while you are eating.

MIRROR IN THE BATHROOM RECOMPENSE
The door in my bedroom or bathrooom??
I thought I was the only one doing this
You are never the only person doing it thinking anything*. I mean, how unlikely would that be
*Anything common. Sure your thoughts on the technical subject that is your work or hobby are unique
You’re never the only person doing anything common. What profound wisdom.
I also need to do this occasionally, even though I never leave without locking I still need to consciously remind myself of the fact

I relock, or check the rear door (mine only automatically unlocks when you pull the front door handles)
Mine uses my phone as the key, I have to point my bum at the door to get it to unlock when my phone’s in my back pocket
I got a 9 volt battery three weeks ago for my multimeter, at home I put it aside somewhere the cats wouldn’t get at it to play with it and lose it on me.
I haven’t seen it since. I have no clue where I could have put the damned thing.
Get a new battery and in a couple of days the original battery will appear in a place you have checked multiple times.
Ya I picked up another one about a week ago now, so hopefully the first one shows up any day now.
Or you’ll go to put the new battery somewhere and find the old one already there.
Sometimes I put stuff somewhere “safe”. Which means I’ll find it 2 years later.
I film myself locking the door. I have evidence.
I have a lock that I can check the status of on my phone, and even lock it from my phone if I forgot. It’s really good for my peace of mind. No more getting up in the middle of the night to check the lock.
I had this thought all the way to the airport, once. Got on the plane without knowing the answer for sure.
I did lock the door, it turned out.
That’s me everyday lol
Wasn’t I supposed to ask myself a question!? I wonder what it could possibly be? :-P
