Margin notes aren't next to text

Question

Good morning.

I would like to get margin notes next to text. When I do it it's right but when I write a text margin notes change position (the picture below) . How to fix it?

Thanks for help.

Have you considered placing the \marginnote material before the material in the body of the document? — Mico, Oct 10 '16 at 06:29
marginal notes are positioned close to the text where you add them so here they come at the end of the document as you added them at the end, latex hasn't moved them there. — David Carlisle, Oct 10 '16 at 06:43

As David Carlisle and Mico said, you should put the marginal notes close to the text where you want to be there. But I want to suggest another solution inspired by Background images for code listings.

make a tikz node everywhere you want and then attach your marginnote to it.
