I'm not the documenting type at all, but I do have a habit I developed of writing my current "state of mind" before the weekend, so that I'd remember where I left off at the start of the week. I usually remember my ideas during the day or so of thinking about them, it's usually during longer breaks that you forget about stuff. You never just "forget" stuff, it just goes "cold" in your memory and you're less likely to remember it when you need it. Find a way to remind yourself of stuff when you need it - notes are useless if you forget they exist.
