Wow…well best to you @katiefloyd. Congratulations on taking the leap. I hope what’s coming your way brings you much joy.
Clearly David has entirely too much time on his hands …
(In fairness, this has a lot more class than the typical YouTube “unboxing” video 
)
@katiefloyd Whoa, that was a doozy of an announcement, but all the best of luck to you, you will be missed!
@MacSparky Think I am gonna try your new field guide for this season. I am usually terrible at wrapping gifts, maybe this will make it easier for me. Looks easy 
I am going to need some time to wrap my head around the notion of MPU without @katiefloyd! I’m glad we have until the end of the year to adjust. Thank you for your nine years of great podcasts, Katie.
On the “ideal week”, I’ve been doing a bit of a Cortex archive binge and Myke and Grey talk about something like this in Episode 24
By the way, “Self-improvement is like keyboard shortcuts,” has to be one of the most hilariously nerdy things I’ve ever heard.
As a recent regular listener I’d already felt at home with @katiefloyd and @MacSparky together. While we all want certain things to be consistent I appreciate both Katie’s desire to move on and the way in which she and David handled the announcement. Class, grace and style…much like the products we love to talk about here. Thank you Katie!
Me too sister. When Katie first told me, I was moping around for days but, as her friend, I truly believe she is making the right decision.
But it’s true! AmIRight?
Lol, I actually put this in apple notes for later laughs, but it IS true: I only get conversant with apps by deliberately training myself to use the shortcuts, a good reminder that things get better with deliberate repetition and practice.
I started listening to MPU at around episode 30 and in 8+ years or so I don’t think I’ve missed a single episode. It’s weird to feel like you know someone so well yet they don’t know you. I will miss you @katiefloyd! Thanks for everything and I wish you the best in your future endeavors!
@katiefloyd WHAT THE WHAAAAAT!?!??! I’m super excited for you, but dang it! I start my week with @MacSparky and yourself. The banter, opinion, and commentary is helpful and enjoyable. You will be missed and wish the very best going forward.
I must be the odd one with iPad use. I very rarely use mine in landscape mode at all. But I mostly use mine for reading and basic web browsing.
Most of the feedback on this episode is either about Katie’s announcement and the Gift Wrap Field Guide. I just watched the Field Guide at work (being super productive), and now have another bunch of equipment to purchase to wrap my gifts. More money spent thanks to MPU!
(All comments intended to be in good fun - loved the field guide. We will see if I have enough patience for this).
David said in this episode that he has perspectives in OmniFocus that has the defer date for today or tomorrrow and is flagged. I can’t see how this is possible without including items defered for further in the future. Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks.
Sad to hear Katie is leaving. Podcasting is an interesting medium. You really get attached to folks and feel you know them somewhat, especially for long time listeners.
