Never too late Rosemary! Effective communication is the cornerstone of of of of of...a a a communicating ☺ Email and social media has put a damper on communication or rather made it easier to not think before speaking. I am so guilty of not thinking before speaking or writing something. I really think the current moderators, mentors and especially our fearless leader have excellent communication skills and we can learn from each other. I'm hoping I'm better than when I first started and will get better at communicating each day because of the exposure to the styles and words of you all.

Here's an excellent overview of effective communication:

Today is the day! Happy Wednesday April 11th. Want to know why I'm so happy (don't care, I'm telling you anyway ☺)? Spring will be here soon. It's going to be close to 50 degrees today!!

@johnbishop We had snow today (SE Michigan) but it will reach 50 this afternoon !

I am not going to be able to join today, but if you become more effective, the rest of us may have to take an English composition update class. I enjoy reading everyone's writing and that goes for many of the members. I enjoy reading the way @parus uses words and we have discussed that. I hope the meeting is productive and I have no doubt that Colleen, or our fearless leader, will insure that it is. I think I will be able to view some or all at a later date.
