The Art of Gathering by Priya Parker focuses on the interpersonal, connective part of gathering rather than the logistics. If you’ve ever been an introvert stuck at a party where the hosts just expect everyone to have a good time if there’s enough food and humans, you are going to love this book!

You got this! https://etsy.me/3uZUlib It’s amazing to look back at history of about 100 years ago. Here’s my great grandpa Ellis Blocher (boy on the left) with his siblings - around 1917 in North Dakota. His little sister Esther had her leg amputated when she was young and you can read the sweet note she wrote thanking her nurse (swipe). She mentions the flu pandemic of 1918. She died in January 1919. 😭 I like to think that my great grandpa’s spiritual sensitivity was shaped by early experiences and I’m sure losing his little sister was one that never left him. 🥺 #familyhistory #vintagephoto #genealogy #history #familytree #familysearch Do you have any tender family stories in your tree like this? "Heaven is cheering you on yesterday, today, and forever." @jeffreyrholland​​​​​​​​ The 1950 US Census is a really cool indexing opportunity! When you log in, you see what the computer thinks the person's name is, and you get to correct or accept the suggestion. Very cool artificial intelligence! It's a partnership between @ancestry and @familysearch​​​​​​​​ Happy Mother's Day. Today's about the love. Thanks for putting everything into perspective, Mother Teresa. I love my mom, grandmas and family who have put a lot of love into helping me become who I am today. ❤️​​​​​​​​ Are you a tech-only kinda organizer? Or paper? I like both! There are so many benefits to having a system where you use both paper and the best of technology. For example, I use Google Calendar for events that are really important to share with my spouse. My physical planner will have a lot more detail about to-do lists, events and tasks. ​​​​​​​​ May 4th (known as Star Wars Day in the United States) is actually a really special day in Denmark. 🇩🇰 It's "Liberation Day" from World War II occupation by the Germans (1945)! It also happens to be my daughter's birthday. ​​​​​​​​ New item added to the shop! After going on a big family trip in April, I decided I wished I'd had a budget spreadsheet and a planning workbook to help me make the most of the trip.
