Urban Legends And Other Spoofs...
I often see posts on facebook that seem to be crazy but are posted y friends. Instead of hitting "share", I do a Google search, or lookthem up on www.snopes.com with just a key phrase from the post to see if the story is true. It seems like at least 90% of the time, the story is a hoax and my friend has re-posted it, thinking it was true. If you see an odd story, please verify it with a quick check on Google, Snopes, or UrbanLegend.com website.
Monday Appointments
Holly and I both have appointments with a new doctor tomorrow (Monday) for checkups and consultations. She was referred to us by our friends Tim and Gayle Driscoll. This doctor specializes in "functional medicine" which is a new concept to me but is concept that goes way back in time to Hipocrates. We will let you know how it goes. :-)
Digitizing Workshop
Holly and I spent Friday morning at the venue of our August digitizing workshop. There were meals and snacks to plan as well as the layout of the tables and other questions.
The workshop is for members of the digitizing team. This is their time to get together in person for a couple days of intensive training and sharing ideas about digitizing. This is the 3rd workshop Holly has done just for TEAM members. The results pay off in better designs for the ATW members.
How do I know these workshops pay off? Take a look at the email I received this morning from our member Carol Ladouceur...
