Working efficiently in community teams can be challenging. I’ve joined a new committee for my local square dance community, and the chair strongly advocates using Slack over emails for sharing information. As previously noted with a different committee, Slack didn’t seem very useful. Maybe this time it will work? From what I can see, he…
The Thesier-Tessier-Dechene-Brunet Family Reunion is celebrating its 90th anniversary family reunion this summer. A website was created to more easily share family history information, and a business card will be passed around at the reunion to help people stay connected.

I keep losing things. I am forgetful. I am frustrated. I have a few spreadsheets that I’ve created to document the various collections of books, CDs, photos, etc that I have amassed over the years. I was using MediaMan for inventorying, but it hasn’t been maintained by the developer and so it doesn’t work very…
My friend Lisa and I have birthdays mid-May, and we decided to celebrate each other with a free special dancing event. A potluck meal, followed by waltzing and contra dancing. When we started planning out the event in February, naturally the topic of “what colors to decorate with” came up. At the same time, we…
