  • One of my least favorite jobs each year is distilling the family holiday card distribution list.
    • Our family "system of record" is spread across Google Contacts, iCloud, AirTable, Minted.com's list, etc.
      • Every time during the year when I get an email from an old friend about how they moved, I make a mental note, but know I'll forget it at the end of the year.
    • If my husband and I actually had an open-ended, self-building system of record, it would be trivial to distill a high-quality list of up-to-date holiday card distribution.
