Hello, Cherries!  Happy Friday!

So . . . how many Cherries know what this is?

I do, and am actually very proficient, using it at least twice a month.  😁

OCD is not an adjective.  It is not a personality quirk. It is not synonymous with being organized.  It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. 💙 I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son. 💙

I can't remember what it was called, but it's how secretary's took notes and then typed them up later. I think my mom knew how to do it, although probably not well since she was a teacher, never a secretary.

Yes! I took stenography/shorthand in high school. I barely passed lol. I stayed after school and came in early for special help. I always knew I would work in an office and at 17 I was crushed when I couldn’t master this. Little did I know I wouldn’t use it, lol. 
Just call me Nan - it's short and sweet

Shorthand in High School. It was interesting learning, but I don't remember it now.

I believe it is shorthand. I think that is what it's called.

I only know what it is because it was a major plot point in "School Spirits" this season. The early 2000's ghost can read shorthand because her grandmother was a secretary.

It’s shorthand. I used to know it MANY MANY moons ago but once dictaphone came out no one I worked for used it and I can’t remember any of it.
