why not keep them in your calendar? use categories to keep them separate
from your own appts and use views to show or hide them.

Why not use Tasks that are Categorised? They are a workflow tool and less
overkill than Project.
I hope this helps you at least a little bit!

That's an option. However, the category option on my tasks is greyed out. How
would I fix that?

You mean that when you open a Task the Category button is greyed out? I have
never seen that. I have sen the Add button greyed out until you start typing
in the field to add a new Category.
Tyr this:
open a new Task - fully expanded in size. Click the Caetgories button
(bottom row) and select Master Category List. Type a new Category name in
the window and click the Add button. OK. Now select that Category from the
list. OK.
I hope this helps you at least a little bit!
