Home | LibreOffice - Free and private office suite - Based on OpenOffice - Compatible with Microsoft Free office suite โ€“ the evolution of OpenOffice. Compatible with Microsoft .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .ppt, .pptx. Updated regularly, community powered.

I know I should quit Google Docs, too, but I worry my procrastination tendencies would latch onto Scrivener's bells & whistles too much in all the wrong ways..? But I recently bookmarked Libre as a recommended Word alternative to try: www.libreoffice.org

If I can encourage you to do one random act of kindness this holiday season, it would be to ask you to follow the animal shelter nearest to you and SHARE all of their posts this holiday season. They might be taking part in Empty the Shelters, and you'll help get pets adopted. You'll be saving lives๐Ÿพ

So many, but I'll go with UNCLE BUCK, which I'm excited to rewatch after seeing the new John Candy doc. So much hilarity + humanity in one filmโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน

Cheers to that, with my "back to bed with a book" combo of a Nespresso oat milk latte + Susan Minot's WHY I DON'T WRITE collection. Best start to a day off there is๐Ÿค“๐Ÿ™

Weirdly I've never seen it despite loving the cast! Perhaps this, coupled with it popping up in my Recommended, is the nudge I was waiting for...

That sounds amazing. Are these homemade, or is there a brand you recommend?

It's been a good 20 years since I read it... Currently I'm in a sporadic re-read phase of Goldberg's WRITING DOWN THE BONES, and you're inspiring me to return to BIRD BY BIRD next after that๐Ÿค“
