I felt like I got very little done today - until I wrote down everything below!
* Read email, blogs and Twitter, thought about what to blog about, and finally decided on LiveRoots, so I wrote Project Management at LiveRoots.com - Post 1, based on what I had collected three weeks ago. This seems to work pretty well and easy to use. Need to practice what I preach!
* Downloaded and read the new Internet Genealogy magazine. Wrote Internet Genealogy Magazine - August/September 2009 Issue and scheduled it for early afternoon.
* Had lunch at home. Worked in LiveRoots project managment system for awhile - added more items to the personal library and a to-do list. Had a problem and consulted with Illya. There must be a character limit to the comments.
* Transcribed Jeremiah Lanphear Petition into Estate Papers of Jeremiah Lanphear of Wilna NY (died 1862) and scheduled it for later in the afternoon.
* Created an Error List in FTM 16 for my database and started working my way through it. I really need guidance on best practices for second marriages, nicknames, double names, etc. Got through the unknowns, the As and the Bs. I'm finding many unconnected persons...
* At 3:30 p.m., was tired and sleepy so went in to watch news and the Padres game. Had a nap, but woke up with headache - finally gone now. Had dinner,k read the paper, worked in the yard in the cool, Padres won 3-2 over Reds.
* Back on computer at 7:30 p.m., worked in database awhile, read everything, checked Facebook, watched Mark Tucker's presentation, posted Have any Awkward Family Photos? Share Them!, and wrote this post.
