Cross this off your list ✅

Do you keep track of your daily plans? If so, how do you do it?

Embarrassingly, up until recently I have been using the Notes app on my devices (yay for the cloud!) to create daily to-do lists, both personal and work related.

As soon as a client would ask if I had time for a project, I would say, “I'll add it to my list!” And literally, that's what I did.

The awesome part about this method is marking stuff off the list and then erasing it at the end of the day. The not-so-awesome part is feeling like a lunatic who relies on her Notes app for anything/everything.

Tell me I'm not alone. Also tell me if you have a good recommendation for a free app that is similar to Trello but also has a calendar view. A unicorn for sure, but maybe it's out there.

ALSO!

I'm still trying to figure out the best day to send you this email — hit reply and tell me which day works best for you!

The escalation of human rights abuses in recent weeks keeps me up at night. I've been following the Israeli-Palestinian conflict since my early career as a journalist and it seems that there will never be any real solution as long as there are terrorists and heavy-handed politicians in a revenge cycle — only the continued suffering of innocent civilians and children. The hopelessness of the situation terrifies me.
