+
+# Obsidian
+
+I have registered the `obsidian` cli. I'm using it for task tracking for Popdog.
+
+The relevant information you'll find is in Work/Popdog. There's an overall _Todo.md meta file that lists all my outstanding work.
+
+Once items are verified complete they should be rolled up into the daily roundup files named YYYY-MM-DD.md.
+
+Format tasks as follows: 
+
+```
+- [ ] ==**High**== Task Title
+	- [ ] Sub task/portion of task
+- [ ] **Medium** Task Title
+  - [ ] Sub tas/portion of task
+```
+
+Note that only High priority receives highlighting == ==.
+
+## Task Completion
+
+When tasks are completed, mark them as such by checking the box next to the task.
+
+Also roll up the completed tasks into the daily roundup files.
+
+We should
