Oh and plus if people have been running AC, it dehumidifies the indoor air a ton.

Yes, true. That’s how we keep mold from growing on the walls here.:slight_smile:

I finished it but it didn’t charm me. It was marginally better than watching reality tv.

I am currently fourth in the queue at my library for the book. It might be a good book to read on work days, books that are too engaging I cant put down and end up staying up to late. So this might be perfect

Anyone have a favorite digital notecard/sticky note/whiteboarding app? I’ve got a few hundred ideas written down and I’d like to categorize them, but don’t want to waste a tree.

My kids use one called NoodleTools for school but not sure if it’s exactly what you want. I think it’s a google app

My husband uses onenote for brain organization for work. You can drag pictures around and write on them and stuff, although he does it with an iPad and “pencil” so I don’t know if it would translate well to just phone app?

I personally use Google Keep, and another program we’ve used at work is Notably

I also use Keep, but that might not be powerful enough for what you’re envisioning, brute. It’s very good for making notes and lists and doodles, and it automatically syncs across devices as long as you’re signed in to your Google account, which I like very much. You can also shares notes with other Keep accounts if you want. However, it’s not a real whiteboarding app – you wouldn’t use it for managing a project, just kinda taking notes, and the sharing functionality is very rudimentary.

There’s always stuff like Trello if you need more intense management software.

Ahhh onenote. I always forget about that! That could work if I spread it across all 4 monitors

I will check Keep out! Gotta figure out if we have a corporate agreement with the good people over there, but it could be cool.

@diapasoun Trello looks promising! Though now that I see it, I might be able to mess around enough with our project management software to get the kanban board to do what i want.

I really appreciate the help! There’s literally hundreds of ideas that I’m categorizing for measuring progress in different areas across the company, so this is going to be a bear.

I would not use Keep for this.

Definitely go for something like Trello or some other sort of Kanban-y software.

Trello was the first thing to come to mind to me!

Shampoo and conditioner that won’t turn into weird scum on my hair in hard water? Other solutions beyond get a water softener?

Are you getting scalp buildup too? Or just noticing it in the texture of your products while you’re using them?

I mainly notice it on my hairbrush building up. And my hair feels weird and looks greasy way faster than before. I don’t use any product or do literally anything other than brush my hair and then braid it, so it’s definitely from that. Same shampoo and conditioner I’ve used for like 3 years. Abrupt change when we moved. And definitely harder water here.
